1. 31. Body composition and bone density in children and adolescents. Relation to growth hormone

   Författare :Hans Fors; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Growth hormone; leptin; body composition; bone mineralisation; DXA; BIA; BIS;

   Sammanfattning : The regulation of growth, body composition and bone mineralisation during childhood and adolescence is a complex and multifactorial process. Growth hormone (GH) is essential for normal growth; in addition, it influences bone mineralisation and body composition in both children and adults. LÄS MER

3. 32. Structural, functional and metabolic effects of growth hormone on nomal and failing heart

   Författare :Entela Bollano; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; growth hormone; myocardial infarction; echocardiography; magnetic resonance spectroscopy; left ventricular remodelling;

   Sammanfattning : The growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor I (GH/IGF-I) system plays an important role for cardiac development, structure and function. Recently, data from experimental and clinical studies have suggested the use of GH as treatment after myocardial infarction (MI) affecting cardiac remodeling and development of heart failureThe aim of this thesis was to study the effects of GH on cardiac structure, function and energy metabolism in normal and failing heart.

4. 33. The role of PPARalpha and growth hormone in hepatic lipid metaboism and atherosclerosis

   Författare :Anna Ljungberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :growth hormone; PPARalpha; atherosclerosis; lipid metabolism; fatty acids; apoB; ; ADRP; triglycerides; PGC-1; liver;

   Sammanfattning : Dyslipidemia mainly results from oversecretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins from theliver and is one of the most important risk factors for the development of atherosclerosis.Growth hormone (GH) plays a key role in the regulation of lipoprotein metabolism and thus,disturbances in GH secretion are associated with dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease.

5. 34. Growth hormone regulation of LFABP and PPARa. Genes involved in hepatic lipid metabolism

   Författare :Linda Carlsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Growth hormone; fatty acids; rat; hepatocyte; LFABP; C EBPa; PPARa;

   Sammanfattning : Growth hormone (GH) is known to have several important effects in the control of metabolism. The aim of these studies was to investigate how GH regulates genes involved in fatty acid transport and metabolism in the liver and the interaction between GH and fatty acids in this regulation.
