  1. 1. The cholecystokinin receptor family : molecular cloning and pharmacological characterization

    Författare :Isabelle Nilsson; Dan Larhammar; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Cholecystokinin (CCK) and gastrin are hormones/neurotransmittors of the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system. The receptors for gastrin and CCK are members of the G protein-coupled receptor family. The aim of this study was to clone and pharmacologically characterize vertebrate and invertebrate CCK receptors and splice variants. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Cyclic nucleotide signalling systems in vascular smooth muscle cells and immune system cells with special reference to phosphodiesterases PDE3 and PDE4

    Författare :Dag Ekholm; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HTLV-I; multiple sclerosis; proliferation; phosphorylation; T-lymphocytes; vascular smooth muscle; cloning; protein kinase A; cGMP; cAMP; PDE4; Phosphodiesterase; PDE3; cilostamide; rolipram; Histology; cytochemistry; histochemistry; tissue culture; Histologi; cytokemi; histokemi; vävnadskultur;

    Sammanfattning : The cyclic nucleotide signalling systems are important in vascular smooth muscle and in the immune system, and are of interest from a pharmacological point of view. Drugs which interfere with the cyclic nucleotide levels have profound effects on heart, blood vessels and airways and have actual or potential use in several important diseases, such as heart failure, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, asthma and autoimmune diseases.

  4. 3. Arachidonic acid metabolism in corneal epithelial cells : Identification of lipoxygenase isoforms

    Författare :Maria Liminga; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutical biosciences; Cornea; cDNA cloning; lipoxygenase; liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry; organ culture; Farmaceutisk biovetenskap; Biopharmacy; Biofarmaci; farmaceutisk farmakologi; Pharmaceutical Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : The metabolism of arachidonic acid in the human cornea was investigated and compared with the metabolism in cattle and primates. All three species showed significant arachidonic acid metabolism inthe epithelium, whereas the activity in the stroma and the endothelium was low or undetectable. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Glutathione transferases : molecular cloning, site-directed mutagenesis and structure-function studies

    Författare :Gun Stenberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Three distinct glutathione transferases (GST) cDNA clones were obtained by screening of tumour cell line cDNA libraries. The cDNA clones were expressed in Escherichia coli and the enzymes characterized. Rat GST 8-8 is the only member in the multifunctional GST family for which a specific cellular function has been proposed. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Dust mite allergens : cloning, characterisation and T-cell responses

    Författare :Tove L J Eriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The number of allergens that have been cloned has increased dramatically during the last 10 years, and today, over 400 allergen sequences are available in the databases. In addition, at least 15 dust mite allergens have been characterised. LÄS MER
