  4. 18. The role of incretin peptides and ghrelin in upper gut motility and metabolic control

    Författare :Therese Edholm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Metabolic control is essential for the individual and is strictly regulated via a wide range of factors. One important mechanism in maintaining an adequate blood sugar level is the regulation of insulin release and gastric emptying rate by gastrointestinal (GI) hormones. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Isolation and characterization of novel intestinal polypeptides of the enteroinsular and brain-gut axes and of macrophages

    Författare :Zheng-wang Chen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The gastrointestinal tract has been recognized as our largest endocrine organ, from which many peptide hormones, neuropeptides and growth factors have been isolated. There is also increasing evidence that the gastrointestinal tract can be considered as our largest immune organ, from which many antibacterial peptides, cytokines, cytotoxins and chemokines have been characterized.

  7. 20. Gastric bypass : Technical aspects and long-term results

    Författare :Eduardo Sima; Magnus Sundbom; Mikael Wirén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) achieves superior short- and long-term weight loss compared to other weight loss modalities. Different operative techniques have been developed to technically facilitate the surgical procedure, with consequences in the form of an array of postoperative complications and gastrointestinal symptoms.
