1. Phosphoinositides control insulin secretion through multiple routes
Sammanfattning : Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells is the sequence of events that starts with glucose uptake and ends with the fusion of insulin granules with the plasma membrane through Ca2+-triggered exocytosis. Phosphoinositides are minor components of all cellular membranes, yet play fundamental roles as regulators of many cellular processes. LÄS MER
2. Mesoporous magnesium carbonate : Synthesis, characterization and biocompatibility
Sammanfattning : Mesoporous materials constitute a promising class of nanomaterials for a number of applications due to their tunable pore structure. The synthesis of most mesoporous materials involves a surfactant liquid crystal structure to form the pores. LÄS MER
3. Ca2+ fluxes and insulin action in cardiac and skeletal muscles
Sammanfattning : Obesity and type 2 diabetes are major and rapidly increasing health problems in society. They are associated with several life-threatening conditions, including heart and renal failure, and damage to the nervous system. An inability of cells to respond normally to insulin, insulin resistance, is a key feature in obesity and type 2 diabetes. LÄS MER
4. Calcium transport in the Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas - in a changing environment
Sammanfattning : Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is globally one of the most important farmed bivalve species. A prominent features of the C. gigas is the thick CaCO3 shell covering the body of the animal and protecting it from the environment. LÄS MER
5. Asexual embryogenesis in plants
Sammanfattning : The capacity of somatic cells and pollen grains or microspores to undergo embryogenesis is an important property used in improvement and regeneration of plants. Furthermore, somatic embryogenesis as well as pollen embryogenesis show many similarities with zygotic embryogenesis and are, thus, good model systems. LÄS MER
