1. Melanophore a2-Adrenoceptors
Sammanfattning : The present study provides new insight into the pharmacology, the signal transduction mechanisms and the molecular biology of a2-adrenoceptors (a2-ARs) in black pigment cells (melanophores) of a teleost fish, the cuckoo wrasse (Labrus ossifagus L.). LÄS MER
2. α1- and α2-Adrenoceptors in the Eye : Pharmacological and Functional Characterization
Sammanfattning : α1- and α2-Adrenoceptors are involved in various physiological events in the eye: blood flow regulation, aqueous humor dynamics and pupil regulation. The α1- and α2-adrenoceptors can be further subdivided into six subtypes (α1A, α1B, α1D, α2A , α2B, and α2C ). LÄS MER
3. Function of B2-adrenoceptors on alveolar macrophages
Sammanfattning : B2-Agonists are very effective drugs for bronchodilatation, provide a rapid reliefof symtoms in asthma, and are recommended as first line treatment, together withsteroids. The relaxation of bronchial smooth muscles is a well established effectof B-agonists, but their eftects on inflammatory cells in the airways are less certain. LÄS MER
4. Blood Flow Regulation and Inflammatory Response in Experimental Models of Diabetes
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is caused by defect pancreatic islet β-cells together with peripheral insulin resistance. The disease is often accompanied by obesity with associated low-grade visceral adipose tissue inflammation, which contributes to insulin resistance. LÄS MER
5. Regulation of chloride secretion in HT29 cells studied by X-ray microanalysis
Sammanfattning : Several aspects of Cl- secretion in epithelial cells were investigated. Methods to prepare cultured cellsfor X-ray microanalysis, in order to study volume-regulating chloride transport were evaluated. LÄS MER
