  1. 11. Liver regeneration : With reference to malnutrition and growth factors

    Författare :Stefan Skullman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :cholecystokinin; energy substrates; epidermal growth factor; insulin-like growth factor I; liver composition; liver regeneration; malnutrition; pancreaticobiliary diversion; protein synthesis; rat; transfonning growth factor alpha; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The liver has a unique capacity to regenerate after damage, irrespective of cause. The regulatory mechanisms of this regeneration are not fully known. Liver regeneration· is associated with rapid growth and thereby increased demands for energy and synthesis of new compounds. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Diabetes in adolescent girls : Endocrine influences on metabolic control with special regard to the GHI/IGF-I Axis

    Författare :Maria Halldin Stenlid; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Obstetrics and gynaecology; Insulin dependent diabetes; adolescent; growth hormone; insulin-like growth factor-I; insulin-like growth factor binding protein1; insulin sensitivity; pirenzepine; Obstetrik och kvinnosjukdomar; Obstetrics and women s diseases; Obstetrik och kvinnosjukdomar; pediatrik; Pediatrics;

    Sammanfattning : Metabolic control frequently deteriorates during puberty in girls with IDDM, and is often accompanied by excessive weight gain. This impairment has been ascribed the peripubertal psychosocial as well as somatic changes. Puberty is characterised by a unique endocrine milieu. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Insulin-like growth factor-I deficiency, insulin sensitivity, and glucose metabolism

    Författare :Klas Ekström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In children and adolescents, growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) act in concert to stimulate linear growth; however, the effects on glucose metabolism are in opposition. GH increases insulin resistance by lipolysis. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Inflammation and the Insulin-like Growth Factor System at Very Preterm Birth. Implications for Early Morbidity and Development

    Författare :Ingrid Pupp; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cord blood; brain injury; cytokines; cerebral palsy; child development; fresh frozen plasma; inflammation; preterm birth; insulin-like growth factor I;

    Sammanfattning : The intention of this thesis was to evaluate the effects of inflammation at very preterm birth on subsequent morbidity, as well as on the neuro-protective IGF-system. Prospective clinical studies of very preterm infants constituted a base for the evaluation. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Regulation of insulin-like growth factor-II in human liver

    Författare :Henrik von Horn; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :IG17-II; IGF2; IGFBPs; liver; hepatoblastoma; GH; hypoxia;

    Sammanfattning : Insulin-like growth factors-I and -II (IGF-I and -II) are mitogens in a number of cell types and also have insulin-like actions. IGF-II has an autocrine role in a variety of malignancies; and hypoglycemia is well documented in conditions associated with elevated IGF-II precursor forms in the circulation. LÄS MER
