  1. 21. Local Purinergic Control of Arteriolar Reactivity in Pancreatic Islets and Renal Glomeruli

    Författare :Xiang Gao; Leif Jansson; Olle Hellberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :afferent arteriole; islet arteriole; adenosine; A1 receptor; ATP; P2Y receptor; microperfusion; angiotensin II; type 2 diabetes; hypertension; oxidative stress; nitric oxide; tubuloglomerular feedback;

    Sammanfattning : Local control of regional blood flow is exerted mainly through the arterioles. An adequate minute-to-minute regulation of blood perfusion of the kidney and the pancreas is obtained by the modulation of arteriolar reactivity, which will influence the organ function. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Nephrotic syndrome in children : functional, morphological and therapeutical aspects

    Författare :Eva Löwenborg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Children; glomerular volume; glomerular filtration rate; effective renal plasma flow; rats; nephrotic syndrome; cyclosporine; nephrotoxicity;

    Sammanfattning : Although cure rates of the idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in children have improved because of advances in immunosuppressive therapy, the pathogenesis and course of the disease remain controversial. We have followed children with nephrotic syndrome to study renal function and morphological changes in kidney biopsies and in an experimental study. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major health problem and an economical burden affecting people worldwide. The main causes of CKD are diabetes and hypertension and patient numbers keep increasing. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Evolution of olfaction in Lepidoptera and Trichoptera : Gene families and antennal morphology

    Författare :Jothi Kumar Yuvaraj; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; evolution; pheromone receptors; olfaction; chemosensory; sensillum; HEK 293 cells;

    Sammanfattning : In moths, females produce sex pheromone compounds to attract males over a long distance for mating. The antennae of moths and many other insects have specialized odorant receptors (ORs), called pheromone receptors (PRs), to sense the pheromone compounds and they group in a monophyletic clade (PR clade).
