1. The Actin Filament System : Its Involvement in Cell Migration and Neurotransmitter Release
Sammanfattning : The microfilament system consists of actin filaments as the major component and is regulated by a number of actin binding proteins. It is juxtaposed to the plasma membrane where it forms a dense cortical weave from where it pervades into the cell interior. LÄS MER
2. 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
3. Alzheimer's disease : towards a multifaceted approach in neuropathological diagnosis
Sammanfattning : The main aim of this study has been to investigate potential neuropathological features which may play an important role in understanding the cognitive dysfunction and in making the final diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To establish a reliable diagnosis of AD, standardisation and uniformity of the diagnostic protocols must become mandatory. LÄS MER
4. Studies on proteins involved in the molecular regulation of insulin exocytosis
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance. Better understanding of molecular mechanisms of insulin secretion may help to optimize type 2 diabetes management. LÄS MER
5. Regulation of phagocytosis and phagolysosome fusion in human leukocytes
Sammanfattning : Professional phagocytes such as neutrophil granulocytes and macrophages are an esential part of the innate immune system. The neutrophils form the first line of defence against invading microorganisms and are important for rapid killing of the intruders. LÄS MER
