  1. 1. Pancreatic carcinoma in Malmö, Sweden: Clinical, epidemiological and biochemical aspects

    Författare :Mats Hedberg; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kirurgi; Pancreatic carcinoma; survival rate; epidemiology; incidence rate; risk factors; smoking; weight gain; gastric resection; cholecystokinin; Surgery; pancreatic enzymes; traumatology; traumatologi; ortopedi; orthopaedics;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis has been to assess whether there are indications suggesting that new methods for diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic carcinoma (PCa) has been followed by an improved prognosis, and to assess the possible role of smoking and gastric resection in the causation of the disease. Of the 1,200 new cases PCa diagnosed in Sweden yearly, the majority are older than 70 years, the case fatality rate being close to 100%. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Basement membrane collagens in pancreatic cancer : novel stroma-derived tumor markers and regulators of cancer cell growth

    Författare :Daniel Öhlund; Malin Sund; Peter Naredi; Matthias Löhr; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Pancreatic cancer; tumor marker; basement membrane; type IV collagen; type XVIII collagen; matrix metalloproteinase; integrin; autocrine loop; tumor stroma; kirurgi; Surgery;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Among the common malignancies, pancreatic cancer has the shortest long-term survival. The aggressive, rapid, and infiltrative growth pattern of pancreatic cancer, together with the lack of specific symptoms, often leads to late diagnosis. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Gastro-enterology; Pancreatic lipase related proteins.; Pancreatic lipase; Monogalactosyldiglyceride; Lipolytic enzymes; Galactolipids; Essential fatty acids; Digestion; Digalactosyldiglyceride; Colipase; Chylomicron; Bile salt stimulated lipase; Carboxyl ester lipase; Gastroenterologi; Proteins; enzymology; Proteiner; enzymologi; Lipids; steroids; membranes; Lipider; steroider; mebran;

    Sammanfattning : Galactolipids: digalactosyldiglyceride (DGalDG), monogalactosyldiglyceride (MGalDG) and sulfoquinovosyldiglyceride (SQDG) are the major lipid components in thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts i.e. the site of photosynthesis in plants. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Characterizing the pancreatic "isletome" : 3D optical imaging to study diabetes

    Författare :Max Hahn; Ulf Ahlgren; András Gorzsás; Leif Carlsson; Alvin C. Powers; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 3D imaging; fluorescence microscopy; 3D image analysis; technique development; diabetes; Islet of Langerhans; Insulin; β-cell mass; pancreas; anatomy; molecular medicine medical sciences ; molekylär medicin medicinska vetenskaper ; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The pancreas is a specialised multipurpose organ, that can be separated into two major compartments: endocrine and exocrine. The exocrine part makes up the majority of the organ volume and functions to secrete digestive enzymes into the small intestine. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Estrogen and Serotonin – old dogs, new tricks, Implications for pancreatic beta-cell function

    Författare :Alexander Balhuizen; Celiaki och diabetes; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diabetes; Estrogen; Serotonin; Pancreatic islets; Insulin resistance; Beta-cell function; GPCR;

    Sammanfattning : Islet hormone secretion is tightly regulated by metabolic status as well as local and circulating factors. These factors can activate different receptors on the pancreatic islet cells, for instance G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). LÄS MER
