  1. 26. The relative importance of sex steroid receptors for bone metabolism

    Författare :Sofia Movérare-Skrtic; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :bone; estrogen; androgen; transgenic; microarray;

    Sammanfattning : Estrogen deficiency increases the risk of a wide variety of pathological conditions including osteoporosis. Morbidity from osteoporosis is substantial in both men and women. LÄS MER

  3. 27. The role of caspase-1, caspase-4, NLRP3 and IL-1RA in bladder epithelial cells infected by uropathogenic Escherichia coli

    Författare :Anna Lindblad; Isak Demirel; Manisha Yadav; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Urinary tract infection; inflammasome; uropathogenic Escherichia coli; NLRP3; caspase-1; caspase-4; IL-1RA; antimicrobial peptides; estrogen;

    Sammanfattning : Urinary tract infection is one of the most common infections and is mostlycaused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). The inflammasomeassociatedproteins caspase-1, caspase-4 and NLRP3 are essential in the hostcell response during urinary tract infection by regulating IL-1β release. LÄS MER

  4. 28. Folate - Associations with breast cancer depending on intake, metabolism, genetic variation and estrogen receptor status

    Författare :Ulrika Ericson; Diabetes - kardiovaskulär sjukdom; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; folate; B-vitamins; breast cancer; diet; epidemiology; nutrition; plasma; polymorphism; estrogen receptor α; estrogen receptor β; reproducibility; prospective;

    Sammanfattning : Folate is a B-vitamin that may influence cancer development via its role as methyl donor for DNA synthesis and methylation. Plant foods contain many bioactive compounds including folate and fiber. Results from the Malmö Diet and Cancer (MDC) cohort indicate lower breast cancer risk at high fiber intake. LÄS MER

  5. 29. Anti-Apoptotic Proteins in Nerve Cell Survival and Neurodegeneration

    Författare :Laura Korhonen; Marja Jäättelä; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; neuronal cell death; XIAP; RIAP-2; Hippocalcin; Bcl-2; Bcl-X; kainic acid; DRG; estrogen; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Developmental Neurosciences; medicinsk utvecklings- och neurobiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a genetically regulated cell death program, which shows distinct morphological characteristics. It takes place during neuronal development and in some neurodegenerative diseases. During apoptosis, the intracellular proteins are degraded by various caspases, cysteine aspartases, which are regulated by pro- and anti-apoptotic signals. LÄS MER

  7. 30. Prevention of beta-cell dysfunction via targeting novel GPCRs in pancreatic islets

    Författare :Rajesh Kumar; Islet cell physiology; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type II Diabetes; GPCR; Pancreatic islets; Estrogen; Alpha-1 antitrypsin.;

    Sammanfattning : The primary aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) in insulin secretion and beta-cell survival. The second aim was to determine which pathway is involved in insulin release and beta-cell protection via GPCRs. LÄS MER
