1. Conjugated linoleic acid and the metabolic syndrome : Clinical and metabolic studies with special reference to insulin resistance, oxidative stress and inflammation
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to investigate the metabolic effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in middle-aged men with the metabolic syndrome, a high-risk group for type 2 diabetes. CLA is a group of fatty acid isomers with antiobesity and antidiabetogenic effects in animals, and CLA is therefore used as a supplement in humans. LÄS MER
2. Milk Fat Intake and Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) Supplementation : Dietary Markers and Associations to Clinical and Biochemical Characteristics
Sammanfattning : In the present thesis dietary markers for intake of milk fat, associations between intake of milk fat and risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD), and the effects of supplementation with conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) to healthy humans are investigated.The dietary fat quality is one of the main lifestyle factors affecting risk for CHD.

3. Diet and inflammation : the role of nitrate and conjugated linoleic acid
Sammanfattning : A diet rich in vegetables and unsaturated fatty acids is associated with a lower risk of major diseases including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and chronic inflammation. Yet, despite extensive research, the active component(s) responsible for these effects has not been pinpointed and studies with single nutrients have been largely unsuccessful. LÄS MER
4. Development of sensitive cellular assay systems and their application to the identification of "orphan" seven-transmembrane receptors
Sammanfattning : Seven-transmembrane, G-protein coupled receptors play a central role in physiology since they facilitate cell communication in multicellular organisms by recognition of a broad range of ligands. They also represent important drug targets. LÄS MER
5. Factors associated with spontaneous oxidized flavour in cow´s milk
Sammanfattning : Spontaneous oxidized flavour (SOF) is an off-flavour in milk that has received attention in only a few countries, primarily due to lack of monitoring. The poly unsaturated fatty acids in milk are considered to make it more prone to oxidize, with effects like shorter shelf life of dairy products and a reduction in consumer acceptance of milk. LÄS MER
