  1. 1. GH/IGF-I axis regulation of cardiovascular and neuronal gene expression and function

    Författare :Anna Barlind; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Growth hormone; rat; hypophysectomy; vascular resistance; gene expression; place learning; Intellicage; hexarelin; CNS; hippocampus; neurogenesis; cell survival; mouse;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of mortality in the Western world. Another important clinical condition is brain damage due to radiation therapy in cancer patients. This has neurological impairments presenting in the survivors. For both these conditions, it is important to develop new therapeutic strategies. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Protection of the developing brain with trophic factors. Signaling through serine/threonine kinase pathways

    Författare :Katarina Gustafson Brywe; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :hypoxia-ischemia; neonatal; brain; growth factors; ser thr kinases;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Perinatal asphyxia still constitutes a clinical hazard associated withconsiderable neurologic morbidity. There is today no therapy in clinical use toprotect the brain after such insult. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Proliferative and protective effects of the GH/IGF-I axis on cardiomyocytes and neural progenitor cells

    Författare :Inger Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :GH; IGF-I; GH secretagogues; Ghrelin; Cardiovascular; Neurogenesis; Hippocampus; Proliferation; Protection;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of mortality in the Western world and the majority of cardiovascular deaths are caused by coronary artery disease or cerebrovascular disease. Growth hormone (GH) is a growth-promoting hormone synthesized by the pituitary. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Cardiovascular effects of growth hormone, IGF-I and growth hormone secretagogues

    Författare :Åsa Tivesten; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :cardiovascular system; growth hormone; insulin-like growth factor-I; growth hormone secretagogues; echocardiography.;

    Sammanfattning : Growth hormone (GH) may exert direct growth-promoting and metabolic actions on target tissues, but most of its effects are mediated by circulating (endocrine) or local (auto-/paracrine) insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). The GH/IGF-I system has an important role during cardiac development and for maintaining the structure and function of the heart. LÄS MER
