  1. 1. Omics Techniques Applied to Diabetes Research - Focus on HSL-Null Mice and Clonal β-Cells

    Författare :Celine Fernandez; Molekylär endokrinologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; metabolomics; transcriptomics; treadmill; liver; HSL; cholesterol; proteomics;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by increased blood glucose levels. For overt type 2 diabetes to develop, both insulin action and insulin secretion must be perturbed. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Hormone-Sensitive Lipase - New roles in adipose tissue biology

    Författare :Kristoffer Ström; Molekylär endokrinologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; retinoid; adipogenesis; adipocyte determination; HSL; WAT;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is defined as abnormal or excessive fat accumulation that may impair health, and increased knowledge about the enzymes controlling lipid metabolism is of great importance in order to combat this disease. Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) is a key enzyme in the mobilization of fatty acids from acylglycerols in adipocytes, but also plays important roles in other cell types. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Genetics of type 2 diabetes and the metabolic syndrome

    Författare :Mia Klannemark; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; diabetology; secreting systems; Endocrinology; PDE3B; PPARG; LPL; metabolic syndrome; diabetes; genetic; HSL; UCP2; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi;

    Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes and the metabolic syndrome are highly prevalent disorders with severe complications such as cardiovascular disease. The aetiology of type 2 diabetes and the metabolic syndrome is not known, but the interaction between genetic factors and environmental triggers is important. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Polycystic ovary syndrome : a study of adipocyte lipolysis in relation to endocrine and metabolic status

    Författare :Ingvar Ek; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Adipocyte; beta-adrenoceptors; FFA; hyperandrogenism; HSL; insulin resistance; lipolysis; PCOS; PKA;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present thesis was to obtain insight into possible regulatory effects of androgens on the regulation of lipolysis in subcutaneous as well as visceral adipose tissue in women with the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). In non-obese women with PCOS, adrenergic lipolysis was investigated in both subcutaneous abdominal and visceral adipose tissue and several, novel disturbances were found. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Structure-function relationships of hormone-sensitive lipase

    Författare :Torben Österlund; Institutionen för translationell medicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Proteins; mutagenesis; domain; fold; catalytic triad; lipase; structure; enzymology; Proteiner; enzymologi;

    Sammanfattning : The primary role of hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL), an 84 kDa enzyme of 768 amino acids (in the rat protein), is to hydrolyse stored triacylglycerols in adipocytes of white adipose tissue. Catecholamines and insulin regulate lipolysis through cellular signalling. LÄS MER
