  1. 16. Insulin signal transduction in skeletal muscle : special consideration for insulin resistance and diabetes

    Författare :Xiao Mei Song; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :exercise; fiber-type; glucose transport; hyperglycemia; obesity; signal transduction; skeletal muscle; NIDDM;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation work is focused on the insulin-signal-transduction pathways to glucose transport in skeletal muscle from animal models of NIDDM. The overall objective is to determine the effectiveness of different pharmacological treatments to improve insulin action in skeletal muscle. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Dissecting the role of micro-RNAs in diabetes

    Författare :Caroline Bolmeson; Create Health; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 diabetes; Type 2 diabetes; micro-RNA; Dicer; beta-cell function; insulin secretion; glucose; NOD mouse; Goto-Kakizaki rat; human islets; thymocytes; apoptosis;

    Sammanfattning : The role of miRNAs in pancreatic islets and β-cell function and in the development of diabetes in human and rodents have been investigated in this thesis. Dicer1 was specifically deleted in vivo in pancreatic β-cells under the RIP-promoter in mice. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Exploring the Role of the PDZ Domain in a Supramodule

    Författare :Louise Laursen; Per Jemth; Per Hammarström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PSD-95; PSG; PDZ3; supramodule; liquid liquid phase separation; allostery; folding; binding; evolution; post synaptic density; SynGap; CRIPT; AGRB1; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry; Medicinsk biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a large, dense and membraneless compartment of proteins associated below the postsynaptic membrane bilayer, and which constantly undergoes morphological alteration in response to synaptic activity. Formation of PSD is associated with liquid-liquid phase separation of scaffold proteins in complex with other PSD proteins. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Effects of imidazoline compounds on intracellular CA2+ and apoptosis

    Författare :Ioulia Appelskog; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :imidazolines; imidazoline site; sulfonylurea; glucose; interleukin-1beta; insulin secretion; glucagon; somatostatin; pancreatic islets; pancreatic P-cells; HIT-T15 cells; apoptosis; cytoplasmic free Ca2 concentration;

    Sammanfattning : Cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of insulin release from the pancreatic beta-cell. [Ca2+]i is also important in the control of apoptosis. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Molecular genetics of type 2 diabetes

    Författare :Li Luosheng; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Type 2 diabetes; the Goto-Kakizaki rat; linkage analysis; quantitative trait locus; gene-gene interaction; high fat diet; disease progression; alternative splicing; comparative genomics.;

    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is a common and chronic disease caused by interactions between genetic and environmental factors. The Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat is a well-established genetic model of type 2 diabetes. LÄS MER
