  1. 16. Cytokines and lipids in pregnancy – effects on developmental programming and placental nutrient transfer

    Författare :Susanne Lager; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipose tissue; amino acids; cytokines; developmental programming; free fatty acids; insulin resistance; interleukin-6; lipoprotein lipase; nutrient transport; placenta; toll-like receptor 4;

    Sammanfattning : Metabolic disturbances, in particular those associated with nutritional challenges, that take place during development, both in utero and early postnatal life, have long-lasting health consequences on an individual. The most pronounced evidence of these challenges is a deviation in birth weight. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Diet and gut microbiota in cardiometabolic health: Studies from the Danish Diet, Cancer and Health – Next Generations Cohort and the sub-cohort MAX

    Författare :Agnetha Rostgaard-Hansen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiometabolic diseases; reproducibility; nutrients; gut microbiota; food frequency questionnaire; risk factors; 24-hour dietary recall; epidemiology; temporal variation; dietary patterns; cohort study; validity;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiometabolic diseases (CMD) are the leading cause of death globally. Diet is a key preventive factor of CMD and a determinant of gut microbiota. Gut microbiota, diet and their interactions have been associated with CMD. In observational studies, diet is measured by self-reported instruments, that need to be validated before use. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Regulation of Leptin by Sexual Maturation and Energy Status in Male Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.) Parr

    Författare :Susanne Trombley; Monika Schmitz; Sylvie Dufour; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Leptin; leptin receptor; Atlantic salmon; Salmo salar; sexual maturation; puberty; energy balance; hepatocytes; sex steriods; Biology with specialization in Comparative Physiology; Biologi med inriktning mot jämförande fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Leptin is a peripheral adiposity signal and a key hormone in energy balance regulation in mammals, acting as a link between nutritional status and the endocrine reproductive axis. If this is also the role of leptin in fish is not fully understood. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Risk factors for age-related cataract : a prospective cohort study

    Författare :Birgitta Ejdervik Lindblad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cataract is the most common cause of blindness in the world. Epidemiologic studies have shown that the etiology of cataract is multifactorial. Cataract increases with age and oxidative damage to the lens proteins is suggested to be of importance. LÄS MER

  7. 20. The Gut Bacterial Flora - Focus on Early Life and Physiological Traits

    Författare :Caroline Linninge; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gut microbiota; atopic eczema; inflammation; bacterial diversity; Escherichia coli; Lactobacillus plantarum; molecular-genetic methods;

    Sammanfattning : The gastrointestinal tract of the foetus is considered sterile but during vaginal birth the neonate comes into contact with bacteria from the maternal vaginal and intestinal microbiota. The main focus of this doctoral thesis was to elucidate the initial bacterial ecosystem in newborns and to relate microbial perturbations to physiological traits. LÄS MER
