16. Functional regulation of the dopaminergic system in vivo : Experimental and clinical studies with positron emission tomography
Sammanfattning : Positron emission tomography (PET) is a non-invasive imaging technique used to quantitate the kinetics of a radiotracer in such physiological processes as receptor binding and enzyme activity. Radiolabelled L-DOPA has previously been used as a tracer for the dopaminergic system. LÄS MER
17. In vivo regulation of pancreatic beta cell function
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic beta cells within the islets of Langerhans contribute to the regulation of glucose homeostasis by secretion of insulin, a hormone that stimulates the uptake of glucose by liver, muscle and fat tissue. In response to variations in insulin demand, the beta cell population can adapt by (1) changing the total beta cell mass, and (2) modulating the functional capacity of individual beta cells. LÄS MER
18. Gastric gland luminal pressure and mucosal protection : An in vivo study in the anesthetized rat
Sammanfattning : The driving force for creation of channels in gastric mucus, for acid and pepsin transport, ismost probably the hydrostatic pressure generated within the gastric gland lumen. The aim ofthis study was to investigate the origin and regulation of the glandular pressure. LÄS MER
19. Gene regulation by nuclear hormone receptors in vivo
Sammanfattning : The nuclear hormone receptor superfamily contains 49 different members, including those for thyroid hormone, TR? and TR?. These receptors are ligand-modulated transcription factors that activate or repress gene activity. The TR? gene encodes two main splice variants, TR?1 and TR?2. LÄS MER
20. Fcγ Receptors in the Immune Response
Sammanfattning : Circulating immune complexes play an important role in the modulation of antibody responses and in the pathogenesis of immune diseases. This thesis deals with the in vivo regulatory properties of antibodies and their specific Fc receptors. LÄS MER
