11. Microvascular effects of insulin in the skin
Sammanfattning : The microcirculation in the skin is essential for skin homeostasis. In instances of altered microvascular function, that may be the result of insulin resistance, tissue morbidity may ensue. The underlying mechanisms are however complex and not fully understood. LÄS MER
12. Assessment of dietary intake in young populations using new approaches and technologies
Sammanfattning : AbstractBackground There is a great need for improved dietary assessment methods that give valid intake data and are more user friendly than traditional methods.Objectives The aim of this thesis was to develop, implement, and evaluate dietary assessment methods using new approaches and technologies in young populations, and to investigate variables that are important for reporting accuracy.

13. Reading a glycocode - mechanism and function of galectin-glycan interactions
Sammanfattning : There is an intensive interest in characterising the structure and function of galectins, which is not surprising given their many important cellular functions and strong implications in human disease. Understanding the mechanisms involved in galectin functions will help to find selective and novel strategies for disease treatment and diagnosis. LÄS MER
14. Direct electron transfer based biofuel cells : operating in vitro and in vivo
Sammanfattning : I vår moderna värd är vi väldigt beroende av elektrisk energi som vi använder för det mesta i får vardag: för att lysa upp våra hus, generera värme, driva våra datorer och mobiltelefoner och mycket mer. Produktion av elektrisk energi har dock ofta en negativ på-verkan på vår miljö. LÄS MER
15. Bacterial modulation of host glycosylation - in infection, biotechnology, and therapy
Sammanfattning : A majority of the proteins of the immune system are glycosylated and the glycans of IgG are essential for its functionality. Bacteria display enzymes that modulate the glycans of the immune system to weaken the host defense and favor bacterial survival. LÄS MER
