    Sammanfattning : Background and aim: Persistent stress and life events affect the course of ulcerative colitis (UC) by largely unknown mechanisms. Regulation of epithelial permeability to antigens is crucial for the balance between inflammation and immuno-surveillance, and increased intestinal permeability has been shown in patients with ulcerative colitis.

    Sammanfattning : Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a group of chronically relapsing immune-related disorders, engaging the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms vary depending on inflammatory phenotype, but may include diarrhoea, bowel pain and weight loss. The two most common entities are Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis (UC). LÄS MER

  7. 10. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of bile acid receptor activation for the treatment of human liver disease

    Författare :Samer Al-Dury; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicinska sjukdomar; Gastroenterologi och hepatologi; FXR; IBAT; Gallsyror; Obesitas; Gallstenar;

    Sammanfattning : Farnesoid X receptor (FXR) is a nuclear transcription factor that is activated by bile acids and regulates bile acid homeostasis, glucose and lipid metabolism. FXR activation by a ligand has been identified as a therapeutic modality for a range of liver and metabolic diseases. LÄS MER
