21. Maf transcription factors in beta cell function
Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus is metabolic disorder caused by a defect or lack of beta cell-produced insulin that controls blood glucose homeostasis. In addition to glucose, insulin secretion is regulated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS); the neurotransmitter acetylcholine as well as monoamines, such as dopamine, serotonin, melatonin and norepinephrine.

22. Identification of novel factors regulating human adipocyte function and their link to metabolic health
Sammanfattning : The white adipose tissue (WAT) regulates energy homeostasis by storing and releasing energy in the form of fat as well as functioning as an endocrine organ secreting a myriad of different peptides. The heterogeneous WAT consists of various cell types including the lipid-storing cells termed adipocytes. LÄS MER
23. Genetic factors affecting pregnancy duration in humans
Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the mechanisms behind human pregnancy duration. Too short gestation is a direct cause of perinatal, neonatal, and infant mortality. Deviation from normal pregnancy length is also associated with a child's morbidity, even in the adulthood. LÄS MER
24. Factors regulating the origin and magnitude of carbon dioxide emissions from high-latitude lakes
Sammanfattning : Lake ecosystems receive, transmit and process terrestrial carbon and thereby link terrestrial, aquatic and global carbon cycles. Most lakes evade CO2 to the atmosphere, but the annual magnitude of CO2 evasion, as well as sources and mechanisms underpinning CO2 evasion from lakes are still largely unresolved. LÄS MER
