  1. 21. Myocardial metabolism in experimental infarction and heart failure

    Författare :Truls Råmunddal; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Myocardial metabolism; Heart failure; Myocardial infarction; Lipotoxic heart disease; Apolipoprotein B; Arrhythmias; Cardiac reserve; Creatine metabolism;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract The heart is an organ heavily dependent on exogenous lipids for the oxidative production of adenosine-triphosphate (ATP) and therefore maintenance of normal cellular energy homeostasis. However, high energy flux organs such as the heart must closely match lipid import and utilization or otherwise lipids will accumulate in the cardiomyocytes. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Microarray Technology for Genotyping in Pharmacogenetics

    Författare :Ulrika Liljedahl; Ann-Christine Syvänen; Denis Grant; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Molecular medicine; microarray; genotyping; pharmacogenetics; molecular medicine; single nucleotide polymorphism; hypertension; Molekylärmedicin; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ;

    Sammanfattning : The studies in this thesis describe the development of a microarray based minisequencing system and its application to highly parallel genotyping of single nucleotide polymorphisms. The technical developments included identification of a three-dimensional microarray surface coating with high binding capacity for oligonucleotides modified with amino groups as the most optimal one for the system.

  3. 23. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) heterogeneity : implications for cardiovascular disease and genetic influence

    Författare :Camilla Skoglund Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Low density lipoprotein; gradient gel electrophoresis; intima-media thickness; atherosclerosis; myocardial infarction; low density lipoprotein oxidation; cholesteryl ester transfer protein; lipoprotein lipase; hepatic lipase; apolipoprotein E; apolipoprotein B; microsomal triglyceride transfer protein; genetics; lipoproteins; metabolism;

    Sammanfattning : The low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle population is heterogeneous with regard to several structural and functional properties that may influence its atherogenic potential. A preponderance of small, dense LDL is associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), and also predicts future CHD events. LÄS MER

  4. 24. CYP3A and lipids in health and disease : in females and males

    Författare :Helena Bergström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Sex and gender differences in the pharmacokinetics-and dynamics of drugs, have been known for centuries. Women have been regarded as different - a 70 kg male has been the norm in medicine. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Novel epidemiologic and mechanistic aspects of the metabolic syndrome

    Författare :Justo Sierra-Johnson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: The metabolic syndrome is a cluster of cardiometabolic risk factors that increase risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Its prevalence continues to rise worldwide and it is becoming a public health burden. The aim of my thesis was to help elucidate some of the epidemiologic and mechanistic aspects behind the metabolic syndrome. LÄS MER
