  1. 1. Lipid Composition and Deterioration in Light and Dark Muscle of Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

    Författare :Torbjörn Ingemansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Docosahexaenoic acid; lipid classes; fatty acids; muscle lipids; Palmitic acid; trout; differences; lipids; fish;

    Sammanfattning : Nutritionally valuable lipids, including lipid classes and their fatty acids in light and dark muscle, have been determined and analyzed in farmed rainbow trout. Dark muscle was found to have a higher content of total lipids than light muscle, 7.3 wt% versus 3.0 wt%, which was mostly accounted for by neutral lipids, especially triacylglycerols. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Biomarkers of fish consumption and risk of stroke or myocardial infarction

    Författare :Maria Wennberg; Jan-Håkan Jansson; Ingvar Bergdahl; Maria Albin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; fish consumption; omega-3 fatty acids; eicosapentaenoic acid; docosahexaenoic acid; methylmercury; selenium; lead; cadmium; stroke; myocardial infarction; erythrocytes; food frequency questionnaire; Environmental medicine; Miljömedicin; Epidemiology; epidemiologi; hälso- och sjukvårdsforskning; health services research; medicin; Medicine; Environmental Science; miljövetenskap; näringslära; Nutrition;

    Sammanfattning : The effect of fish consumption on the risk of cardiovascular disease has been extensively studied. Omega-3 fatty acids present in fish, namely eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), have been found to have beneficial effects through several mechanisms. In addition, selenium, an antioxidant, may be protective. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Pathogenic Mechanisms of the Arctic Alzheimer Mutation

    Författare :Charlotte Sahlin; Lars Lannfelt; Lars Nilsson; Christian Haass; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Neurosciences; Alzheimer s disease; Arctic mutation; Amyloid precursor protein; Amyloid-β; APP processing; Aβ oligomers; Docosahexaenoic acid; Neurovetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, neuropathologically characterized by neurofibrillay tangles and deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides. Several mutations in the gene for amyloid precursor protein (APP) cause familial AD and affect APP processing leading to increased levels of Aβ42. LÄS MER

  5. 4. ALPHA-LINOLENIC ACID Postprandial Lipid Metabolism and Enzymatic Interesterification of Triacylgylcerols

    Författare :Julia Svensson; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; alpha-linolenic acid; triacylglycerol; postprandial lipemia; Lipozyme TL IM; interesterification;

    Sammanfattning : An important indicator of the metabolic capacity of humans is the ability to regulate plasma triacylglycerol levels and to clear triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) from the circulation after a meal. This is crucial since most of the day is spent in the postprandial state. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Functionalization and characterization of surface supported lipid membranes and their application in cell culture

    Författare :Dorota Thid; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cell - surface interaction; supported phospholipid bilayer; IKVAV; DHA; stem progenitor cells; neural cells; surface analytical techniques; QCM-D; surface functionalization; peptide; cell differentiation; cell attachment; membrane; fatty acid;

    Sammanfattning : Phospholipid bilayers supported on a solid surface constitute a versatile, biomimetic platform for a variety of applications, such as biosensing, drug delivery research, cell engineering and as cell membrane mimics in fundamental cell research. Phosphocholine supported lipid bilayers are resistant to cell attachment in a wide range of conditions, and can be functionalized with bioactive signaling molecules to promote specific interactions with cells.
