  1. 6. 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

  3. 7. Thylakoid membranes from green plants affect appetite and promote body weight loss

    Författare :Caroline Montelius; Aptitkontroll; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Overweight; Obesity; Appetite Regulation; Thylakoids; Craving; Satiety;

    Sammanfattning : The incidence of overweight and obesity has reached alarming proportions. Today, overweight, obesity and the metabolic diseases cause more death than starvation. To counteract an increasing body weight gain, regulation of appetite and a controlled food intake is of greatest importance. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Sami lifestyle and health : epidemiological studies from northern Sweden

    Författare :Lena Maria Nilsson; Bethany Van Guelpen; Anna Winkvist; Per Lenner; Per Sjölander; Peter Bjerregaard; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sami people; traditional food; traditional lifestyle; the VIP cohort; mortality; cancer; cardiovascular disease; folkhälsa; Public health;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this PhD thesis was to expand the current knowledge of “traditional Sami” diet and lifestyle, and to test aspects of the Sami diet and lifestyle, specifically dietary pattern, macronutrient distribution and coffee consumption, in population-based epidemiological studies of mortality and incident cardiovascular disease and cancer in a general population.In Paper I, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 elderly Sami concerning their parent’s lifestyle and diet 50-70 years ago.

  5. 9. Milk Genomics – Impact of Genetic Polymorphism on Bovine Milk Composition and Processability

    Författare :Maria Glantz; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; milk genomics; bovine milk; milk composition; technological properties; processability; cheese; quantitative genetic evaluation; single gene effect; genomic selection; genetic polymorphism; leptin; direct genomic value;

    Sammanfattning : Milk genomics is a new area of research that explores the relations between cow genetics and milk characteristics. Identifying the genes controlling compositional and technological traits of milk will give opportunities to select cows for targeted milk production. In this thesis, the impact of different genetic approaches, i.e. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Expression and Function of Human and Plant Aquaporins

    Författare :Maria Agemark; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aquaporin; water channel; overexpression; Pichia pastoris; AQP8; AQP5; SoPIP2; 1;

    Sammanfattning : The aquaporins (AQPs) belong to a family of water permeable membrane channels found in virtually all living organisms. Thirteen isoforms of mammalian AQPs are found, whereas in Arabidopsis thaliana 35 genes encoding AQPs are found. The AQPs are distributed in different organs, cell types and in different subcellular membranes. LÄS MER
