1. 6. Growth and integrity of the small intestine in malnutrition and trauma

   Författare :Michael Wirén; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Glutamine; growth factors; intestinal mucosa; malnutrition; permeability; surgery; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Sammanfattning : The small intestine is an active metabolic organ constituting a functional and immunologic barrier to toxins and microbes in the intestinal lumen. Injuries are repaired by rapid cell replication, which depends on nutritional and humoral growth factors. Glutamine has been suggested to be the most important nutrient for the enterocytes. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Small bowel carcinoid tumours arising from enterochromaffin cells in the jejunum and ileum are neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) characterized by secretion of serotonin, tachykinins and other bioactive substances. These substances may lead to the typical carcinoid syndrome as well as pronounced fibrosis locally and in the heart. LÄS MER

4. 8. Intestinal barrier function in health and disease

   Författare :Pernilla Nejdfors; Biologiska institutionen; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; VIP.; PACAP; secretion; ion transport; urine reservoir; radiation therapy; ulcerative colitis; macromolecules; dextran; mannitol; Ussing chamber; Intestinal permeability; mucosa; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi; Physiology; Fysiologi;

   Sammanfattning : The intestinal epithelium has the dual function of absorbing nutrients and water as well as being a barrier to potentially harmful substances such as macromolecules and bacteria. In the present thesis the barrier function of the intestinal mucosa was studied in vitro in Ussing diffusion chambers. LÄS MER
