1. Exocytosis in Type 2 Diabetes- Functional and genetic studies of hormone secretion
Sammanfattning : Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) is characterized by dysregulated beta-and alpha-cell hormone secretion leading to elevated blood glucose levels. Several proteins are crucial in maintaining exocytosis of the hormone-containing granules such as Syntaxin1A (Stx1A), SNAP25, Munc-18 (Stxbp1) and the family of Synaptotagmins (Syts). LÄS MER
2. Effects of Ca2+, microRNAs, and rosuvastatin on insulin-secreting beta cell function
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a condition of high blood glucose levels due to insulin resistance and defective insulin secretion. Impaired insulin secretion plays a major role in the pathophysiology of T2D, it is mainly attributed to beta cell function i.e. failure to secrete insulin or reduced beta cell mass. LÄS MER
3. Non-coding RNAs in beta cell insulin secretion - emerging players in Type 2 Diabetes pathogenesis
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex polygenic disease influenced by both environmental and genetic factors resulting in impaired insulin release from pancreatic beta cells and insulin resistance in target tissues. The incidence of T2D is escalating and it is projected that over 640 million people will be affected by 2040. LÄS MER
4. Molecular mechanisms of biphasic insulin secretion
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic beta-cells secrete insulin in response to increase in blood glucose concentration with a rapid first phase and slower, sustained second phase. This secretion pattern is similar in entire pancreas, isolated islets of Langerhans and single beta-cells and it is disrupted in type 2-diabetes. LÄS MER
5. Probing and pushing potential genetics, development and training of cognitive functions
Sammanfattning : Capacities of cognitive functions increase considerably during childhood and adolescence. This development is of importance as poor development can predict lower performance on academic skills. Furthermore, severe impairment is related to symptoms of many neuropsychiatric disorders such as attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). LÄS MER
