    Nyckelord :obesity; adipose tissue; hypothalamus; leptin; leptin receptor; 5 untranslated region; hypertension; angiotensinogen; DNA microarray;

    Sammanfattning : Obesity is a major health problem because of its dramatic increase in prevalence and the association of obesity with type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, hypertension and stroke. Although mutations in certain genes have been shown to cause obesity, the molecular mechanisms underlying obesity and obesity-related disease are still largely unknown. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a multifactorial disorder. Several important risk factors, in particular cigarette smoking, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia, reduced high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentration and hyperglycaemia, have been defined. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Pharmacogenetic Studies of Antihypertensive Treatment : With Special Reference to the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System
