21. Individual glucocorticoid sensitivity in the human
Sammanfattning : The expanding use of inhaled and intranasal glucocorticoid (Gc) preparations for treatment of mild-to-moderate asthma and allergic rhinitis has in the last decade greatly increased the number of adults and children chronically exposed to exogenous glucocorticoids. In general, current topical glucocorticoid therapies appear to be well tolerated. LÄS MER
22. Angiogenesis modulates obesity and insulin sensitivity
Sammanfattning : Both white and brown fat are highly vascularized tissues and vascular functions in adipose tissues remain largely unknown. In this thesis work, we aimed to study blood vessels in modulation of adipose tissue functions under physiological conditions. LÄS MER
23. A nucleo-cytoplasmic anomaly in Drosophila melanogaster causing increased sensitivity to anaesthetics
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
24. Increased glucocorticoid sensitivity in pancreatic beta-cells : effects on glucose metabolism and insulin release
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is characterized by three pathological alterations: (1) insulin resistance in peripheral tissues, (2) increased hepatic glucose production and (3) impaired insulin secretion from the pancreatic beta-cells. Glucocorticoids (GCs) exert profound effects on glucose homeostasis. LÄS MER
25. Leukocyte-derived matrix metalloproteinase-9 in patients with coronary artery disease : Associations with psychological stress and glucocorticoid sensitivity
Sammanfattning : Inflammation is closely associated with development of atherosclerosis. The proteolytic enzyme matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 is considered to play a prominent role in this process. MMP-9 has also been introduced as a marker for plaque vulnerability. LÄS MER
