  1. 21. Diffusion Tensor Imaging and Tractography of the Visual Pathways

    Författare :Ylva Lilja; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diffusion tensor imaging; Visual pathways; Tractography; Temporal lobe resection; Pituitary adenomas;

    Sammanfattning : The visual pathways are essential for human vision, stretching from the retinas of the eyes, via the anterior visual pathways and the optic radiations, to the primary visual cortex in the occipital lobe. Injury to these structures will lead to visual impairment – from small deficits to blindness. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Tailoring Radionuclide Therapy of Neuroendocrine Tumors - Bridging the Gaps

    Författare :Anna Sundlöv; Tumörmikromiljö; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 177Lu-DOTATATE; PRRT; somatostatin analogs; pituitary function; renal function; dosimetry; 68Ga-DOTATATE; individualized treatment; neuroendocrine tumors;

    Sammanfattning : Background and Aims: Radionuclide therapy is systemic, targeted radiotherapy. As such, we can apply the basic principles of radiobiology used in everyday practice in radiation oncology, as a means of tailoring the treatment to each patient and optimizing the balance between efficacy and toxicity.

    Sammanfattning : Hypopituitary patients with growth hormone (GH) deficiency (GHD) have increasedmorbidity and mortality from cardiovascular disease (CVD). GH treatment has both beneficialand potentially negative cardiovascular effects. LÄS MER

  5. 24. LXR regulation of hepatic gene expression and pituitary dependent hormones

    Författare :Pia Kotokorpi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Liver X receptor; growth hormone; gene regulation; metabolism; hepatocyte; hepatic steatosis; species differences;

    Sammanfattning : The liver X receptors (LXRs) are ligand activated transcription factors involved in the regulation of metabolic genes. LXRs are considered potential drug targets to treat metabolic disorders, however, unwanted side effects, as revealed from rodent studies, include increased lipogenesis in the liver and increased plasma triglyceride levels.
