  1. 11. How does variation in corticosterone relate to animal personality?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Författare :Viktoria Oskarsson; [2018]
    Nyckelord :animal personality; correlation; corticosterone; HPA axis; personality traits; stress;

    Sammanfattning : Animal personality is a fairly new branch of biology and has been defined as a difference in behaviour between individuals that is relatively consistent across time and/or context. What researchers now are interested in is to find out what it is that creates and maintains this relatively consistent difference between individuals. LÄS MER

  3. 12. The neural correlates of cognitive reappraisal stress resilience

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Natalie Bergström; [2018]
    Nyckelord :Stress; resilience; coping; emotion regulation; cognitive reappraisal;

    Sammanfattning : Resilience refers to the fact that some individuals cope well with stressful experiences. Many factors contribute to this sort of resilience, such as the early environment, the serotonin transporter gene (5-HTTPLR), the hypothalamic-pituitaryadrenal (HPA) axis, the sympathetic-adrenal medullary (SAM) axis, and emotion regulation techniques.

  4. 13. Farmakologisk behandling vid opioidberoende : Finns det skillnader i effekt mellan buprenorfin- och metadonbehandling?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)

    Författare :Anna Olofsson; [2018]
    Nyckelord :methadone; buprenorphine; opioid dependence; Metadon; buprenorfin; opioidberoende;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund: Heroin är en opiat ursprungen från opiumvallmon och är starkt förknippad med beroende och död. När heroin och andra kortverkande opiater binder in till μ-opioidreceptorer i hjärnan sker en ökad frisättning av signalsubstansen dopamin och en stark känsla av eufori infinner sig. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Subjective Well-Being and Biomarkers of Health : The Relationship between Subjective Well-Being, The immune system and Hypothalamic-Pituitary Adrenal Axis Activation

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Författare :Sanda-Wictoria Catibusic; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Subjective well-being; Positive affect; biomarkers; inflammatory cytokines; HPA axis; Interleukin 6; C-reactive protein; Cortisol; Subjektivt välbefinnande; Positiv affekt; biomarkörer; inflammatoriska cytokiner; HPA- axeln; Interleukin-6; C-reaktivt protein; Kortisol;

    Sammanfattning : An association between inflammation and mood deterioration has been proposed as a potential explanatory mechanism underlying many pathologies. Previous research attributes this consistently reoccurring connection between inflammation and psychopathology that is often reported within the literature, to a relationship between the HPA axis, the body’s stress response system and the immune system.

  7. 15. Does coat color affect cortisol levels in Border collie dogs?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Biologi

    Författare :Linnéa Rosén; [2016]
    Nyckelord :Hair cortisol; dog; coat color; stress; welfare; canis;

    Sammanfattning : Cortisol is a stress hormone which is released from the adrenals in the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis and plays a major role in animal stress response. Cortisol is used as a stress marker and can be sampled using different methods. A good non-invasive method and a good measure of chronic stress is to measure cortisol through hair. LÄS MER
