11. Characterization of two novel fatty acid dioxygenases : Linoleate diol synthase and manganese lipoxygenase
Sammanfattning : Two classes of fatty acid dioxygenases, PGH synthases (hemeproteins) and lipoxygenases (non-heme iron proteins), are of eminent pharmacological importance. This thesis describes a PGH synthase-related dioxygenase designated linoleate diol synthase (LDS) and the first native occurring manganese-containing lipoxygenase. LÄS MER
12. Dietary Fatty Acids, Body Composition and Ectopic Fat : Results from Overfeeding Studies in Humans
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate the effects of dietary fatty acids on body composition and ectopic fat in humans, with emphasis on the role of the omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) linoleic acid (18:2n-6) and the saturated fatty acid (SFA) palmitic acid (16:0). The overall hypothesis was that linoleic acid would be beneficial compared with palmitic acid during overfeeding, as previously indicated in animals. LÄS MER
13. Dietary Fatty Acids and Cardiometabolic Risk : Influence on Lipoproteins, Insulin Resistance and Liver Fat
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate how dietary fatty acids affect the risk for cardiometabolic disease, i.e. cardiovascular disease (CVD), type 2 diabetes and obesity. LÄS MER
14. Vitamins, fatty acids, physical activity and peak bone mass
Sammanfattning : Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mineral density, deteriorated bone microstructure and increased fracture risk. About 50% of all women and 25% of all men will have an osteoporotic fracture. Given that there is no effective cure in established osteoporosis, prevention is of high importance. LÄS MER
15. Chemo-Enzymatic Epoxidation of Unsaturated Fatty Acids
Sammanfattning : Epoxy fatty acids are useful molecules and find a number of applications e.g. as PVC plasticisers and stabilisers, additives in polyurethane production, reactive diluents in paints, corrosion protection agents, etc. LÄS MER
