  1. 21. Exercise and angiogenic growth factors in human skeletal muscle

    Författare :Thomas Gustafsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Adapatation; angiogenesis; angiogenic growth factors; blood flow; gene expression; gene regulation; human; ischaemia; skeletal muscle; training;

    Sammanfattning : Long-term electrical stimulation and endurance exercise increase the amount of capillaries in skeletal muscle. VEGF-A is a well-characterized stimulatory angiogenic growth factor and has shown to play an important role in angiogenesis in pathological conditions in humans and in physiological conditions in animal models.

  3. 22. Jejunal control of glucose homeostasis in the human body

    Författare :Erik Elebring; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glucose homeostasis; ketogenesis; jejunum;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The prevalence of obesity and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have risen dramatically over the last decades, and are major threats to the human health. Obesity, and also T2DM, is treated with lifestyle modifications, medications or by bariatric surgery, with varying success. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Resident T cells steer tissue responses in human skin

    Författare :Borislav Ignatov; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The human skin constitutes a biological barrier against threats to the body from the surrounding environment. Tissue-resident memory cells (TRM) reside in the skin and provide local memory of previous encounters with microbes and pathogens, are poised to promptly eliminating infected cells and elicit tissue-wide defense state.

  5. 24. Human muscle response to sprint exercise in a gender perspective

    Författare :Mona Esbjörnsson Liljedahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Anaerobic; Performance; Wingate-test; muscle biopsy; Adenine nucleotides; hormones; glycogen; type I fibres; type II fibres; fast twitch; slow twitch; muscle morphology; men; women; sprint training;

    Sammanfattning : Anaerobic performance, muscle characteristics and acute and chronic response to sprint exercise were studied in physically active healthy women (n=35; age 24) and men (n=38; age 25). The aims of the present study were to: 1) Establish if women possess lower oxidative and glycolytic capacity, higher proportion of type I fibres and smaller type II fibre areas in relation to type I fibre areas in thigh musculature than men.

  7. 25. The serotonin receptor type 3 in chronic and experimental human muscle pain

    Författare :Nikolaos Christidis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :5-HT3 receptor; Granisetron; Human muscles; Muscle biopsy; Pain; Pressure pain threshold; Visual Analogue Scale; Randomized Controlled Double-blind Trial;

    Sammanfattning : The main aim of this thesis was to gain a better understanding of the influence of serotonin on chronic craniofacial muscle pain. The thesis comprised a basic science part and a human experimental part. LÄS MER
