  1. 1. Regulation of intracellular signaling events that modulate insulin action

    Författare :Silvia Gogg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; insulin; insulin resistance; EGF; Gab 1; insulin receptor substrate; PI3-kinase; ; Thiazolidinediones; PPARã; insulin signaling; glucose transport; adipose tissue; â-cell.;

    Sammanfattning : Insulin regulates several mechanisms of fundamental importance to the body involving glucose, fat andprotein metabolism. Insulin resistance in skeletal muscle, liver and adipose tissue promotes an increaseddemand for insulin secretion. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Assessment and Treatment of Impaired Insulin- Secretion and Action in Type 2 Diabetes

    Författare :Mozhgan Dorkhan; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 2 diabetes; insulin secretion; glucagon test; insulin resistance; insulin glargine; insulin tolerance test; thiazolidinediones; natriuretic peptides; adiponectin; thyroid associated ophthalmopathy; proinsulin;

    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a disease characterised by varying degrees of defect in insulin secretion and insulin sensitivity and associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Optimal glycaemic control reduces the progression of diabetic complications. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Post-transplantation Hypercholesterolaemia

    Författare :Osama Al Rayyes; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thiazolidinediones; transplantation; low density lipoprotein; insulin; indomethacin; hydrocortisone; fluvastatin; flufenamic acid; Cholesterol; cyclosporine; troglitazone.; Immunology; serology; Immunologi; serologi;

    Sammanfattning : The multidrug regimen, cyclosporine, corticosteroids, and azathioprine, is used in transplantation centres to prevent organ rejection. Several clinical studies have shown that cyclosporine and corticosteroids to cause increases in low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, with subsequent development of atherosclerosis. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Molecular characterization of insulin resistance in the adipose tissue and the effects of thiazolidinediones

    Författare :Ann Hammarstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :IRS-1; PGC-1; adiponectin; insulin resistance; TZD;

    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is the most common metabolic disorder today and has reached epidemic proportions in many contries. Insulin resistance plays a central role in the pathogenesis of Type 2 diabetes and can be present for a decade or more before onset of the disease. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Mechanisms regulating metabolic and mitogenic events in skeletal muscle : implications for insulin resistance and exercise

    Författare :Jeffrey W Ryder; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :skeletal muscle; glucose transport; GLUT4; hypoxia; exercise; Type II diabetes; MAPK; PPAR[gamma] thiazolidinediones;

    Sammanfattning : Reduced glucose transport in skeletal muscle is a hallmark feature of Type II diabetes. Numerous mechanisms acutely or chronically regulate skeletal muscle glucose transport. The role of GLUT4, mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor [gamma] (PPAR[gamma]) were examined in skeletal muscle. LÄS MER
