21. Children Lost and Found : A bioarchaeological study of Middle Helladic children in Asine with a comparison to Lerna
Sammanfattning : This study focusses on children’s living conditions during the Middle Helladic period in Greece. The primary material comprises disarticulated skeletal remains found in a stratigraphic context during the Swedish excavations of Asine in 1926: 4,583 fragments/complete bones. LÄS MER
22. From brain to muscle and back : novel approaches to harness the benefits of exercise
Sammanfattning : As the world population is growing older and more sedentary every day, the need for new approaches to combat chronic diseases grows steadily. Physical exercise improves health and reduces the risk of developing a plethora of chronic diseases. LÄS MER
23. Human glycogen synthase genes. Role in insulin resistance and hypoglycaemia
Sammanfattning : Effective insulin-stimulated storage of excess glucose after a meal, and its rapid mobilisation in the fasting state provide basis of glucose homeostasis. Glycogen is the macromolecular storage form of glucose and glycogen synthase (GS) is the rate-limiting enzyme in glycogen synthesis. Skeletal muscle and liver are the major depots of glycogen.

24. Enzymes involved in heparan sulfate chain elongation : Function of a novel family of tumor suppressors?
Sammanfattning : Heparan sulfate (HS) is a glycosaminoglycan associated with many physiological functions such as regulation of growth factor action and cell adhesion. The HS polysaccharide is synthesized by alternating addition of D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) units from the corresponding UDP-sugar precursors. LÄS MER
25. Peptidergic innervation of periarticular tissue : a study in the rat
Sammanfattning : Painful musculo-skeletal disorders pose a tremendous burden on the healthcare system, the main reason being the limited knowledge of the underlying pathomechanisms and lack of specific treatment. Hypothetically, the peripheral nervous system in the musculo-skeletal tissues plays an important role in the regulation of pain, inflammation, vasoactivity and also tissue repair. LÄS MER
