  1. 1. Dissecting the role of micro-RNAs in diabetes

    Författare :Caroline Bolmeson; Create Health; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 diabetes; Type 2 diabetes; micro-RNA; Dicer; beta-cell function; insulin secretion; glucose; NOD mouse; Goto-Kakizaki rat; human islets; thymocytes; apoptosis;

    Sammanfattning : The role of miRNAs in pancreatic islets and β-cell function and in the development of diabetes in human and rodents have been investigated in this thesis. Dicer1 was specifically deleted in vivo in pancreatic β-cells under the RIP-promoter in mice. LÄS MER

  3. 2. On the Role of Polyamines in Apoptosis

    Författare :Cecilia Hegardt; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SSAT; DENSPM; spermine; polyamines; mitochondrial membrane potential; cytochrome c; caspase; flow cytometry; Jurkat cells; mouse thymocytes; thymus in vivo; programmed cell death; Dexamethasone-induced apoptosis; Fas-induced apoptosis; AdoMetDC; Cytology; oncology; cancerology; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer; Clinical biology; Klinisk biologi; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a kind of death that is best described as cellular suicide and it is important for normal tissue homeostasis. The process can be induced by a number of different stimuli and the dying cell goes through a defined pathway terminating in typical biochemical and morphological alterations of the cell. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Functional studies of candidate genes contributing to type 1 diabetes in the NOD mouse

    Författare :Marie Lundholm; Dan Holmberg; Vivianne Malmström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Type 1 Diabetes; NOD mouse; CTLA-4; Ctex; CD3ζ; apoptosis; Idd6; Lrmp; medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disorder caused by both genetic and environmental factors. The non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse is one of the best and most commonly studied animal models for T1D. This mouse strain spontaneously develops diabetes through a process that closely resembles the human pathogenesis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The genetic basis of T and B cell contribution to autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice

    Författare :Vinícius Motta; Dan Holmberg; Linda Wicker; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 Diabetes; NOD mouse; CTLA-4; superantigen; T cells; Idd; marginal zone B cells; embryo aggregation chimera; negative selection; Immunogenetics; Immungenetik;

    Sammanfattning : The nonobese diabetic mouse (NOD) is an excellent animal model to study type 1 diabetes. As with some humans, disease in the NOD mouse is effected by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. At least 20 insulin dependent diabetes (Idd) susceptibility loci have been identified so far, both in humans and in the NOD mouse. LÄS MER
