1. 11. Developmental exposure to mixtures of persistent environmental pllutants with focus on bone and retinoid system modulations

   Författare :Lubna E Elabbas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Environmental pollution of Arctic regions has evoked a scientific as well as public concern. Arctic Inuit inhabitants consume large amounts of fatty fish and marine mammals and are therefore exposed to levels of environmental toxicants that are suspected to cause adverse health effects.

   Sammanfattning : The maintenance of a normal turnover of cholesterol is of vital importance, and disturbances of cholesterol metabolism may result in several important disease conditions. The major route for the elimination of cholesterol from the body is by hepatic secretion of cholesterol and bile acids (BAs) into the bile for subsequent fecal excretion. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Elevated levels of plasma cholesterol, mainly in low density lipoproteins (LDL), are a major risk factor for coronary heart disease. The level of plasma LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) is largely dependent on the number of hepatic LDL receptors (LDLRs). LÄS MER

5. 14. Cloning and characterization of canine sulfotransferases

   Författare :Carrie Tsoi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Sulfotransferase; dog; cytosol; cloning; catalytic properties; mutagenesis;

   Sammanfattning : Sulfation generally leads to an increase in hydrophilicity facilitating increased excretion of conjugated molecules. In addition, sulfation has an important role in the synthesis, metabolism and regulation of steroid hormones as well as in the generation of reactive electrophilic forms of mutagenic heterocyclic amines and hydroxymethyl polyaromatic hydrocarbons.
