  1. 21. Optical projection tomography based 3D-spatial and quantitative assessments of the diabetic pancreas

    Författare :Tomas Alanentalo; Ulf Ahlgren; Raphael Scharfmann; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nkx; development; optical projection tomography; 3D visualisation; pancreas; beta-cell mass; insulitis; diabetes; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The gastrointestinal tract comprises a number of digestive organs including the stomach and pancreas. The stomach is involved in the digestion and short term storage of food while the pancreas is a mixed endocrine and exocrine gland which provides the body with hormones and enzymes essential for nutritional utilisation.

  3. 22. The cholecystokinin receptor family : molecular cloning and pharmacological characterization

    Författare :Isabelle Nilsson; Dan Larhammar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Cholecystokinin (CCK) and gastrin are hormones/neurotransmittors of the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system. The receptors for gastrin and CCK are members of the G protein-coupled receptor family. The aim of this study was to clone and pharmacologically characterize vertebrate and invertebrate CCK receptors and splice variants. LÄS MER

  4. 23. The role of oestrogens and antibiotics on the development of cancer

    Författare :Johanna Simin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Despite advances in cancer treatment and surgery, cancer-related mortality remains the leading cause of death globally, harvesting over ten million lives annually. While the risk factors are both hormonal and non-hormonal, common prescription drugs’ long-term effects are understudied and likely even underestimated. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Studies of transforming growth factor alpha in normal and abnormal growth
