21. The mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase complex : studies on the interaction between its catalytic and H⁺-translocation components
Sammanfattning : The aim of the present investigation was the characterization of the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase complex, with respect to its subunit composition and to the function of the individual components in the interaction between the catalytic and H+-translocating processes catalysed by this enzyme.The enzyme consists of two structurally and morphologically different units: a hydrophilic part Fl, the centre for the catalysis of the hydrolysis and synthesis of ATP, and a membrane part Fo, which constitutes a binding site for Fl and mediates the translocation of protons through the membrane.

22. Repurposing digitoxin in the treatment of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma : genotypic and phenotypic features as biomarkers for digitoxin sensitivity in vitro
Sammanfattning : The incidence of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is increasing worldwide. The dismal prognosis and lack of effective treatments urges for increased research efforts in developing new treatment regimens. Since the development of new cancer treatments are expensive and time consuming, repurposing drugs is preferable when possible. LÄS MER
23. Manipulation of potassium ion fluxes to induce apoptosis in lung cancer cells
Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a special form of cell death that if non-functional may lead to diseases such as cancer. A reduction of the intracellular potassium ion (K+) content is necessary for activating enzymes important for the execution of apoptosis. LÄS MER
24. The role of catecholamines in regulation of renal tubular sodium transport
Sammanfattning : Renal sodium metabolism, a major determinant of arterial blood pressure, is regulated with remarkable precision by a variety of endocrine, autocrine and neuronal factors. All these factors are known to regulate sodium metabolism by affecting the rate of renal tubular sodium reabsorption. LÄS MER
25. Regulation of ion transport in the gastrointestinal tract : aspects of early development
Sammanfattning : Ion transport in the gastrointestinal tract is vital for cellular homeostasis and to ensure growth during ontogeny. We have therefore investigated the regulation and maturation of sodium, potassium and hydrogen transport in the gastrointestinal tract. Net jejunal sodium absorption is significantly higher in young as compared to adult rats. LÄS MER
