  1. 6. Prostaglandin E2 influences the gastrointestinal endocrine cell system in the rat

    Författare :Marjo Kapraali; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :CCK; EC cells; ECL cells; endocrine cell system; glucagon; indomethacin; neurokinin A; neurotensin; prostaglandin E2; somatostatin;

    Sammanfattning : Previous studies suggest that prostaglandin E2 may interact with gastrointestinal endocrine cells. Our aim was to examine whether erogenous and endogenous prostaglandins - particularly prostaglandin E2 - influence the endocrine cell system in the rat gastrointestinal tract. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Novel therapy for neuroblastoma : focus on prostaglandin E2 and microsomal prostaglandin E synthases-1

    Författare :Anna Kock; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a major public health problem and to date cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Neuroblastoma is a malignant pediatric tumor of the sympathetic nervous system. Neuroblastoma is one of the most common and deadliest extra cranial tumors of childhood. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Apnea and infection in neonates : mediatory role of interleukin-1Beta and prostaglandin E2

    Författare :Annika Olsson Hofstetter; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :respiration; interleukin-1Beta; prostaglandin E2; newborns; rodents; brainstem;

    Sammanfattning : The breathing pattern of infants, particularly preterm infants, is often irregular or periodic and is frequently interrupted by apnea. The latter represents a major concern in haematology, yet much remains unknown about its incidence, appearance, and pathophysiology. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Cancer and Inflammation : Role of Macrophages and Monocytes

    Författare :Alexander Hedbrant; Jonny Wijkander; Dick Delbro; Ann Erlandsson; Anita Sjölander; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; M1 macrophages; M2 macrophages; colon cancer; lung cancer; prostaglandin E2; Biomedical Sciences; Biomedicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Macrophages are cells of the innate immune system that can be found in large quantities in cancer tumors and affect cancer progression by regulating growth and invasiveness of cancer cells. There are two main phenotypes of macrophages denoted M1 and M2. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Neonatal respiratory control : inspiration, inflammation and the prostaglandin E2 pathway

    Författare :Veronica Siljehav; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Immature or deficient autonomic control is a common problem in infants born at a premature age, and is of central importance in apneas. The pre- and perinatal development of the brainstem neural circuits that control autonomic functions is vital for survival after birth and for the regulation of breathing movements. LÄS MER
