    Sammanfattning : Clinical islet transplantation is an emerging procedure to cure type 1 diabetes. The graft is implanted by infusion into the liver through the portal vein. A major obstacle that still needs to be overcome is the requirement for islets from multiple donors to achieve insulin independence. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of six chapters. In Chapter 1 we give some historical background to the topic of the thesis together with the fundamental definitions and results that the thesis is based on. In Chapter 2 we study Mellin transforms of rational functions and investigate their analytic continuations. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Studies on cholesterol homeostasis by modulation of lipoproteins and bile acids

    Författare :Lisa-Mari Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Cholesterol; lipoproteins; bile acids; cholestyramine; chenodeoxycholic acid; CYP7A1; HNF4alpha; PCSK9; hepatocytes; ethanol; atherosclerosis; ApoE; thyroid hormone receptor;

    Sammanfattning : Excess plasma cholesterol, in particular high levels of LDL cholesterol, is a major risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. The liver has a central role in the regulation of cholesterol metabolism: i) a major part of the cholesterol present in the body is synthesized in the liver; ii) the level of plasma lipoproteins is regulated by liver uptake and secretion of these particles and iii) the liver is essential for elimination of cholesterol from the body as such or by its conversion into bile acids.

  7. 5. Studies on the molecular regulation of bile acids and lipoproteins in human liver

    Författare :Lisa-Mari Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Elevated lipid levels in the bloodstream, in particular high levels of LDL cholesterol, are a major risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. The liver has a central role in cholesterol metabolism and is the only organ capable of a quantitative elimination of cholesterol from the body. LÄS MER
