  3. 7. Adipose tissue gene expression & candidate genes for obesity

    Författare :Lovisa Johansson; Diabetes - klinisk obesitasforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Insulin resistance; Obesity; Adipose tissue; Adiponutrin; PNPLA; PPARGC1A; Gene expression; Case-control association study; Microarray; Genotyping; Population-based study;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity results from an interaction between genetic and environmental factors and is a growing health problem associated with development of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This thesis has focused on investigating the genetic contribution in obesity and insulin resistance by both candidate and global gene approaches with focus on the adipose tissue. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Material Modelling of Adipose Tissue for Traffic Injury Prevention

    Författare :Hosein Naseri; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Finite element human body models; Global sensitivity analysis; Obesity; Adipose tissue; Constitutive modelling; Submarining;

    Sammanfattning : Traffic injury is one of the main reasons for traumatic injuries. Obese occupants are among the vulnerable populations with a higher risk of death and severe injuries. Notably, obesity is associated with a thick layer of subcutaneous adipose (fat) tissue. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Calibration and Modelling of Adipose Tissue Under Impact Loading

    Författare :Hosein Naseri; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Constitutive modelling; Global sensitivity analysis; Adipose tissue; Finite element human body models; Obesity;

    Sammanfattning : Vehicular injury is one of the main reasons for traumatic injuries. Finite Element HumanBody Models (FEHBM) have become very popular to assess car crashes and the subsequentinjuries. It provides the possibility to predict stress and strain values in tissue level byrepresenting anatomical structures in details. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Prolactin receptor expression and prolactin-mediated effects in adipose tissue

    Författare :Charlotte Ling; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :adipose tissue; prolactin receptor; SOCS; leptin; resistin; lipoprotein lipase;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of functional prolactin receptors (PRLRs) in white adipose tissue of mice and humans, and the possible functions mediated via PRLRs. In mouse white adipose tissue, three PRLR mRNA isoforms, L-, S2-, and S3-PRLR, and L-PRLR protein expression were detected. LÄS MER
