  1. 1. The kallikrein-kinin system in primary hypertension : dynamics of circulating components of the kallikrein-kinin system in relation to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system

    Författare :K. Peter Öhman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :aldosterone; angiotensin Il; blood pressure; human; prekallikrein; renin; tissue kallikrein; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Kinins are potent vasodilatory and blood pressure lowering peptides, with additional effects on renal handling of electrolytes and water. The kallikrein-kinin system consists of two separate entities, one confined to the circulation and the other to both tissues and the circulation. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Primary Aldosteronism Screening and Diagnosis in Primary Health Care

    Författare :Christina Westerdahl; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hypertension; primary health care; aldosterone; primary aldosteronism; fludrocortisone; aldosterone to renin ratio; renin; captopril;

    Sammanfattning : Arterial hypertension is a very common disorder. In most cases the cause is unknown and therefore classified as essential or primary hypertension. Primary aldosteronism (PA), characterized by an inappropriate aldosterone secretion, has traditionally been estimated to account for approximately 1 % of all hypertensive cases. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Macula Densa Derived Nitric Oxide and Kidney Function

    Författare :Anna Ollerstam; Pontus Persson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; Nitric oxide; rats; kidney; macula densa cells; tubuloglomerular feedback; renin; angiotensin II; blood pressure; hypertension; renal blood flow; neuronal nirtic oxide synthase; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; Physiology; fysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The kidney is the major organ regulating the extracellular fluid volume and thereby the arterial blood pressure. The neuronal isoform of nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the kidney is predominantly located in the macula densa cells. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Betydelsen av inflammation och reninangiotensin- aldosteron-systemet vid ångest och depression

    Författare :Ludvig Hallberg; Lund Psykiatri; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; depression; anxiety; suicide; renin; aldosterone; inflammation; exercise;

    Sammanfattning : A number of biological systems have been studied in the past in an attempt to find the underlying cause of anxiety and depression. The main aim of the work described in this thesis was to investigate the importance of inflammation and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) in relation to anxiety and depression. LÄS MER
