  1. 1. On leukocyte recruitment in endotoxemic liver injury

    Författare :Daniel Klintman; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ortopedi; traumatology; Kirurgi; orthopaedics; Surgery; Sepsis; Liver; Inflammation; Adhesion; Endotoxemia; traumatologi;

    Sammanfattning : Leukocyte recruitment is a key feature of liver injury associated with endotoxemia and systemic inflammation. The aim of this thesis was to define the adhesive mechanisms underlying leukocyte endothelial cell interactions, and the therapeutic potential of interference with specific adhesion molecules in endotoxemic liver damage.

  2. 2. Pathophysiology of intrauterine asphyxia

    Författare :Anna-Karin Welin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :asphyxia; ECG; endotoxemia; fetal sheep; inflammation; melatonin; periventricular leukomalacia; preterm;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The premature infant is at increased risk of cerebral white matter damage, oftenreferred to as periventricular leucomalacia, PVL, which is associated with later developmentof cerebral palsy and cognitive impairment. The etiology of PVL remains unclear, but ischemia-reperfusion followed by generation of free radicals and intrauterine infections havebeen suggested to play an important role. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Mesentric hemodynamics and effects of angiotensin II during circulatory stress

    Författare :Mats Laesser; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Renin-angiontensin system; angiotensin II; intestines; hemodynamics; perfusion; hemorrhage; hypovolemia; endotoxemia;

    Sammanfattning : Mesenteric hypoperfusion and ischemia is considered to be deleterious to the intestinal mucosal barrier function and it is suggested that the renin-angiotensin system plays a pivotal role in the regulation of mesenteric perfusion.The present thesis examines the effects of the specific AT1 receptor blocker candesartan on mesenteric hemodynamics during acute hypovolemia and endotoxinemia.

  4. 4. Regional fluxes of tissue plasminogen activator in porcine endotoxemia

    Författare :Annette Nyberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :pig; endotoxin; tissue type plasminogen activator; plasminogen activator inhibitor; tumor necrosis factor ?;

    Sammanfattning : Formation of fibrin clots in the microcirculation during severe sepsis contributes to organ failure, frequently involving the lungs and the splanchnic organs. Tissue type plasminogen activator, tPA, is the key activator of intravascular fibrinolysis with plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1, PAI-1, as its main inhibitor. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Spices in the postprandial metabolic regulation of healthy humans : An integrated physiological and omics approach

    Författare :Yoghatama Cindya Zanzer; Avdelningen för livsmedel och läkemedel; []
    Nyckelord :Spices; Postprandial; Glycemia; Lipemia; Appetite regulation; Metabolic endotoxemia; Bile acids; Transcriptomics; Nutrigenomics;

    Sammanfattning : Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a consequence of obesity and defined as cluster of at least three out of five criteria covering insulin resistance/glucose intolerance, abdominal obesity, hypertension, low HDL-c and elevated TG levels. Imbalance between energy intake and expenditure is known to alter normal physiological function in many aspects, and leads to obesity, which in the long run may turn into type 2 diabetes (T2D) and ultimately cardiovascular disease (CVD).
