    Sammanfattning : The kidney is one of the most important and complex organs in the humanbody with the task of filtering hundreds of litres of blood daily. It is responsiblefor the salt and acid/base balance in the body, as well as secretinghormones important for red blood cell production and blood pressure regulation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Infection, early entry events and replication processes of picornaviruses

    Författare :Helena Vandesande; A. Michael Lindberg; Jorma Hinkula; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Picornavirus; enterovirus; cardiovirus; echovirus; rhinovirus; coxsackievirus B; Saffold virus; early entry; replication; gastroenteritis; aseptic meningitis.; Virology; Virologi;

    Sammanfattning : The Picornaviridae is a large and diverse family of small RNA viruses, several of which have exhibited a distinct clinical and socioeconomic impact on human society. While many infections are asymptomatic, some members of this virus family have the potential to cause severe disease, including, but not limited to, poliomyelitis, myocarditis, meningitis, and foot-and-mouth disease.

  4. 3. A multifactorial approach to targeting signalling pathways in diabetic foot ulcers

    Författare :Sampath Kumar Narayanan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) are one of the most debilitating complication of diabetes that adversely impacts the health, economics and quality of life of the afflicted individual. The primary pathogenic factor of DFU is hyperglycemia, and its negative effects on normal signaling pathways is still being investigated. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Characterization of novel podocyte proteins in the glomerular filtration barrier

    Författare :Laleh Sistani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The kidney is considered the most important organ of excretion eliminating the body from metabolic waste products. The nephron is the functional unit of the kidney, composed of a cluster of capillaries named glomerulus, and a tubular system. The blood is filtered in the glomerular capillaries across the glomerular filtration barrier. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Characterization of novel genes of importance for renal glomerular function and disease

    Författare :Ásmundur Oddsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :kidney glomerulus;

    Sammanfattning : Glomerular kidney diseases are a major health care burden. The glomerular filtration barrier consists of three layers: the slit diaphragm that bridges the interlocking foot pro- cesses of the podocytes, the glomerular basement membrane and fenestrated endothelial cells. LÄS MER
