  1. 1. Urogenital probiotics : potential role of Lactobacillus in the prevention of urogenital infections in women

    Författare :Daniel Rönnqvist; Eva Essum AB Grahn Håkansson; Ulla SCA Hygiene Care Forsgren-Brusk; Anders Sjöstedt; Patricia Conway; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lactobacillus; normal flora; probiotics; urogenital infections; Candida; Clinical bacteriology; Klinisk bakteriologi;

    Sammanfattning : The human vaginal ecosystem is dominated by Lactobacillus species. An altered vaginal flora can result in symptomatic conditions such as bacterial vaginosis and vulvo-vaginal candidiasis, and urogenital colonisation by uropathogenic bacteria can cause urinary tract infection.

    Nyckelord :urinary tract; male reproductive tract; nitric oxide; nitric oxide synthase; NADPH-diaphorase; smooth muscle; secretion; inflammation; sex hormones.STOCKHOLM 1996 ISB;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the thesis was to study the formation and effects of nitric oxide (NO) in the human urinary tract and in the male reproductive organs. In the human upper and lower urinary tract NO synthase activity was studied via the formation of radiolabeled L-citrulline from L-arginine. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Estrogen receptor b in the urogenital tract of both male and female

    Författare :Zhang Weihua; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The central finding of this thesis is that estrogen receptors regulate androgen receptor expression: ERalpha unpregulates AR and ERbeta down-regulates AR. With this theme, we explored the physiological role of an ER-AR pathway, especially ERbeta-AR, in some urogenital tissues, uterus, ovary and prostate, using ERbeta knockout mice. LÄS MER
