  1. 6. Studies on scavenger receptor class B type I and genes implicated in foam cell formation

    Författare :Per-Arne Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; scavenger receptor class B type I; high-density lipoprotein; oxidized low-density lipoprotein; macrophages; expression profiling;

    Sammanfattning : The risk of atherosclerosis correlates with plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and is inversely correlated to plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. Accumulation of oxidized LDL (oxLDL) by arterial macrophages is a key event in the development of atherosclerosis. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Approaches to differential gene expression analysis in atherosclerosis

    Författare :Tove Andersson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :representational difference analysis; gene expression profiling; microarray analysis; atherosclerosis; foam cell formation;

    Sammanfattning : Today’s rapid development of powerful tools for geneexpression analysis provides unprecedented resources forelucidating complex molecular events.The objective of this workhas been to apply, combine andevaluate tools for analysis of differential gene expressionusing atherosclerosis as a model system.

  4. 8. Foam, Fire and Free Volume - Chemical and Physical Aspects of Porous Polymers

    Författare :Anna Andersson; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Poisson ratio; vibration damping; acoustic impedance; cell morphology; hyperbranched polymer; Polymer foams; free volume; positron annihilation; supercritical fluid.;

    Sammanfattning : Automotive seating has been under continous development since it was described for the first time in 1885. At that time one could read about a “padded leather bench seat sitting on springs mounted directly to the frame of a horse-less carriage”. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Effects of lipid oxidation on transcriptional regulation and cell death

    Författare :Mikko Ares; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :atherosclerosis; low density lipoprotein; lipid oxidation; nuclear factor-KB; activator protein-1; Iysophosphatidylcholine; tumor necrosis factor-alpha; oxysterol; Ca2 ; apoptosis; lipid accumulation;

    Sammanfattning : Elevated levels of low density lipoprotein (LDL) in plasma are associated with an increased risk for atherosclerosis. Excessive accumulation of lipoproteins and lipids in the vascular wall is thought to lead to the development of advanced atherosclerotic lesions prone to rupture. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Synthesis and Applications of Colloidal Zeolites and Transition Metal Functionalized Ordered Mesoporous Carbons

    Författare :Walter Rosas Arbelaez; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; colloidal zeolites; CO2 capture; hierarchical zeolites; growth mechanism; Fe-N-doped ordered mesoporous carbon; fuel cell.;

    Sammanfattning : Porous materials have attracted a great deal of attention of the materials science community, owing to their physical and chemical properties including high surface areas, narrow pore size distribution, tunable pore diameters and variety of chemical compositions. These properties make them suitable for various applications such as adsorption, sensing, catalysis, energy, carbon capture and drug delivery. LÄS MER
