21. Islet hormonal hypersecretion and metformin’s effect on islet hormonal secretion studied in vitro and in vivo
Sammanfattning : Childhood obesity has surged globally. Elevated levels of free fatty acids contribute to hyperinsulinemia, hyperproinsulinemia, and hyperglucagonemia connected with both obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Metformin has beneficial effects on islets by influencing metabolism and reducing stress-induced cell death. LÄS MER
22. Nitrogen and Redox Metabolism in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Sammanfattning : Anaerobic conversion of glucose to ethanol by the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been studied. Glycerol is formed as a by-product in order to maintain the overall redox balance. LÄS MER
23. On the efficacy and prescription of serotonin reuptake inhibitors
Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses several controversial issues regarding commonly used antidepressants, including selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), serotonin and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), and tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs). To this end, patient-level data from 28 placebo-controlled trials on SSRIs and 13 corresponding trials on the SNRI duloxetine, were requested and obtained. LÄS MER
24. Mitochondrial medicine. New strategies to evaluate drug toxicity and develop pharmacological protection of the cell’s powerhouse
Sammanfattning : Mitochondria produce the majority of the cell’s energy. Any dysfunction in, or interference with mitochondrial function can have severe consequences. And yet, it was only within the last decades that screening for potential mitochondrial toxicity was included as routine toxicity assay during early drug development. LÄS MER
25. Distributed Monitoring and Resource Management for Large Cloud Environments
Sammanfattning : Over the last decade, the number, size and complexity of large-scale networked systems has been growing fast, and this trend is expected to accelerate. The best known example of a large-scale networked system is probably the Internet, while large datacenters for cloud services are the most recent ones. LÄS MER
