  1. 11. Effects of surgery on substrate metabolism in human adipose tissue

    Författare :Göran Felländer; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :trauma; insulin resistance; free fatty acids; lactate; pyruvate; glucose; microdialysis; fat cells; catecholamines; cholecystectomy; anesthesia; 133Xe clearance; adipose tissue blood flow; vasodilation.;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to characterize the effects of cholecystectomy on substrate metabolism in vivo and blood flow in adipose tissue using microdialysis of the tissue interstitial compartment. One day after surgery, general insulin resistance and glucose intolerance developed, there was no involvement of the glucose metabolism in adipose tissue. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Effects of triglycerides on the endothelium

    Författare :Pia Lundman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Atherosclerosis; coronary heart disease CHD ; endothelial function; vasodilation; nitric oxide NO ; hypertriglyceridaemia; triglycerides; free fatty acids; ADMA; cellular adhesion molecules; von Willebrand factor.;

    Sammanfattning : Hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG) is a risk factor for coronary heart disease (CHD), although the mechanisms behind the increased risk remain to be defined. It is unclear whether atherogenic or thrombogenic factors are involved, or a combination thereof the endothelium is important in maintaining normal vascular function and has a key role in atherogenesis.

  3. 13. Peroxisomal and mitochondrial enzymes involved in lipid metabolism : studies on function and regulation

    Författare :Veronika Tillander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Fatty acids constitute a major part of the energy that we obtain from the diet and are also the principal source for mammals to store energy. To use the incoming or stored fatty acids as energy, the fatty acids needs to be metabolized of which the majority of fatty acids will be degraded by the mitochondrial β-oxidation system that in the end generates energy to the cell in the form of ATP.

  4. 14. Turnover of chylomicrons in the rat

    Författare :Magnus Hultin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Mechanisms involved in the clearance of chylomicrons and aspects of the interactions at the vascular endothelium were studied in the rat.The poly-anion heparin, known to release lipoprotein lipase (LPL) from the vascular endothelium, enhanced the clearance of chylomicrons.

  5. 15. Sjögren-Larsson syndrome in Sweden : an epidemiological, genetic, clinical and biochemical study

    Författare :Sten Jagell; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sjögren-Larsson syndrome; spastic diplegia; spastic tetraplegia; mental retardation; congenital ichthyosis; macular changes;

    Sammanfattning : The Sjögren-Larsson syndrome (SLS) is a genetically determined syndrome with autosomal recessive inheritance originally and comprehensively described from Sweden. It is characterized by the three cardinal signs congenital ichthyosis, spastic di- or tetraplegia and mental retardation. LÄS MER
