21. Semi-mechanistic models of glucose homeostasis and disease progression in type 2 diabetes
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disorder characterized by consistently high blood glucose, resulting from a combination of insulin resistance and reduced capacity of β-cells to secret insulin. While the exact causes of T2DM is yet unknown, obesity is known to be a major risk factor as well as co-morbidity for T2DM. LÄS MER

23. Integrin-interacting proteins in human cancer progression
Sammanfattning : Integrins are the major transmembrane receptors for the extracellular matrix (ECM) which regulate a diverse array of cellular functions crucial to tumor cell migration, invasion, proliferation and survival. Integrins contact the ECM via their N-terminal extracellular domains and connect to the intracellular environment via the C-terminal cytoplasmic domains. LÄS MER
