  1. 31. GH, IGF-1 and insulin in the regulation of lipid and lipoprotein metabolism

    Författare :Fredrik Frick; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Growth-hormone; insulin-like growth factor-I; insulin; lipoprotein lipase; adipose tissue; muscle tissue; VLDL secretion;

    Sammanfattning : It is well known that growth hormone (GH) has profound effects on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is believed to mediate some of the effects of GH via endocrine and paracrine mechanisms. Moreover, both GH and IGF-I are known to influence insulin secretion.

  2. 32. Pharmacological and genetic manipulation of adipose cell differentiation and metabolism

    Författare :Milica Vranic; Maria J. Pereira; Jan Eriksson; Niklas Mejhert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipose tissue; adipocyte; type 2 diabetes; CRISP Cas9; FKBP51; CDKN2C; second-generation antipsychotics; glucocorticoids; dopamine; dopamine receptor;

    Sammanfattning : Adipose tissue dysfunction has a pivotal role in the development of obesity and related metabolic complications, such as insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. The overall aim was to study the consequences of adipose exposure to pharmacological agents, as well as dysregulations in the expression of genes, potentially involved in adipose tissue dysfunction and related metabolic impairments.

  3. 33. Role of nuclear receptors in the regulation of human adipose tissue metabolism

    Författare :Prasad G. Kamble; Jan W Eriksson; Ingrid Dahlman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :human adipose tissue; nuclear receptors; glucocorticoids; estrogen; PPARγ; lipocalin 2; glucose uptake; lipolysis; adipogenesis; genotype-based recall;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear receptors modulate expression of genes involved in adipose tissue (AT) metabolism. Their improved understanding may provide new treatment options for metabolic disorders such as obesity, insulin resistance (IR) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). LÄS MER

  4. 34. Adverse drug effects on glucose and lipid metabolism: is human adipose tissue of importance?

    Författare :Assel Sarsenbayeva; Jan Eriksson; Mikael Rydén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; human adipose tissue; metabolic adverse effects; SGAs; statins; glucocorticoids; glucose uptake; lipolysis; myofibroblasts; fibrosis; Endocrinology and Diabetology; Endokrinologi och Diabetologi;

    Sammanfattning : Many pharmacological agents that are widely prescribed in clinical practice have adverse metabolic effects, such as hyperglycaemia, insulin resistance, and diabetes. Among such drugs are antipsychotics, prescribed for treatment of schizophrenia; statins, which inhibit cholesterol synthesis and prevent cardiovascular events; finally, potent anti-inflammatory agents, glucocorticoids.

  5. 35. Angiogenic mechanims in adipose tissue and tumor

    Författare :Sharon Siew Hoon Lim; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is involved in the development and progression of many human diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, chronic inflammation, and metabolic diseases. Despite differences in microenvironment under various pathological settings, angiogenic blood vessels share some common features in numerous diseases. LÄS MER
