  1. 1. Diabetic Vascular Complications & Inflammation - role of NFAT and TNFalpha

    Författare :Jenny Öhman; Kardiovaskulär forskning - immunitet och ateroskleros; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; vascular; hyperglycemia; osteopontin; NFAT; diabetes; retinopathy; TNF; UTP;

    Sammanfattning : Vascular complications of diabetes account for the majority of morbidity and mortality among diabetic patients. Large clinical trials have identified hyperglycemia as a risk factor in the development of diabetic vascular complications. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Macro- and microvascular complications of diabetes: Studies on NFAT (Nuclear Factor of Activated T-cells) as a novel target for the treatment of atherosclerosis and vascular dysfunction in diabetes

    Författare :Fabiana Blanco; Diabetiska komplikationer; []

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes is associated with devastating chronic complications including coronary heart disease and stroke (macrovascular complications) as well as microvascular disorders leading to damage of the small vessels and the development of retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy. The underlying pathogenesis is not clear, but hyperglycemia has been identified as an important risk factor. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The new WHO criteria for classification of diabetes takes into account also clinical stages dividing the diabetic patients into noninsulin requiring (NIR), insulin requiring for control (IRC) and insulin requiring for survival (IRS) subgroups.

  5. 4. Interplay between mitochondria, primary cilium, diabetes and its complications

    Författare :Noah Moruzzi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Diabetes is one of the major health problems of the 21st century. Dysfunction of the insulin secreting pancreatic β-cell together with insulin resistance is central to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The cause of the disease and the underlying mechanisms linking hyperglycemia to diabetes complications are still unclear. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Development of therapeutics for the treatment of diabetic brain complications

    Författare :Shiva Mansouri; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Type-2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia, resulting in impaired insulin production and insulin resistance in peripheral tissues. Several studies have demonstrated an association between diabetes and central nervous system complications such as stroke and Alzheimer’s disease. LÄS MER
