  1. 1. CFTR in pancreatic islets

    Författare :Anna Edlund; Diabetes - öcellsexocytos; []
    Nyckelord :CFTR; CF; CFRD; Cystic fibrosis; Cystisk fibros; Diabetes; Insulin; Beta cell; Glukagon; Glucagon; Alpha cell; Alfa-cell; Anoctamin; ANO1; ANO;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractCystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the anion channel and protein regulator CFTR. The most common co-morbidity in CF is CF-related diabetes (CFRD) affecting ~50% of adult patients. The etiopathology of CFRD is largely unknown but the destruction of the exocrine pancreas is thought to contribute. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Leukocytes in Angiogenesis : Learning from Transplanted Pancreatic Islets

    Författare :Gustaf Christoffersson; Mia Phillipson; Kristian Pietras; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; angiogenesis; pancreatic islet transplantation; islets of Langerhans; diabetes mellitus; leukocytes; neutrophils; macrophages; pericytes; MMP-9; VEGF-A; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels, is a complex process involving several cell types and molecular signals. Excessive vascular growth is a problem in tumors, and insufficient vascularization hampers the function of transplanted insulin-producing pancreatic islets. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Physiological Studies of Native and Stem Cell-Derived Islets

    Författare :Daniel Norman; Per-Ola Carlsson; Daniel Espes; Helge Ræder; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Irisin; CART; Islet blood flow; Islets of Langerhans; Stem cell-derived islets; Fysiologi; Physiology; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : In type 1 and type 2 diabetes, the β-cells of the islets of Langerhans are either destroyed by the immune system or stressed due to peripheral insulin resistance. To improve the life of patients with these diseases, new treatments are needed. LÄS MER

  5. 5. The Microvasculature of Endogenous and Transplanted Pancreatic Islets : Blood Perfusion, Oxygenation and Islet Endocrine Function

    Författare :Richard Olsson; Per-Ola Carlsson; Leif Jansson; Arne Andersson; Thomas Linn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Cell biology; diabetes mellitus; pancreatic islets; islet transplantation; vascular engraftment; islet microcirculation; oxygenation; blood flow; protein biosynthesis; Cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Type 1 diabetes mellitus affects millions of people worldwide. Islet transplantation is a minimal invasive surgical procedure that restores euglycemia and halts the progression of diabetic complications. However, despite transplantation of islets from multiple donors most patients reverse to hyperglycemia within five years. LÄS MER
