16. From fatty liver to end-stage liver disease through type 2 diabetes
Sammanfattning : The past decades have seen a marked increase in the incidence of type 2 diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Epidemiological studies have clearly demonstrated that there is an association between type 2 diabetes and NAFLD. LÄS MER
17. Microbial modulation of metabolic diseases
Sammanfattning : The gut microbiota, the ensemble of microorganisms living in the gastrointestinal tract, and the host have a mutualist relationship. Alterations of this delicate equilibrium can lead to changes in microbiota composition and/or function leading to the onset of metabolic diseases (e.g., type 2 diabetes and non-alcoholic fatty liver diseases).

18. The role of liver myeloid cells in obesity and metabolic disease
Sammanfattning : Macrophages are tissue resident cells with diverse phenotypes and functions depending on their origin, localization and physiological context. In the liver, their main functions are to detoxify the blood from pathogens, debris and metabolic waste arriving to the liver through the systemic and portal circulation. LÄS MER
19. On the role of gut microbiota in intestinal physiology and hepatic metabolism
Sammanfattning : The gut microbiota, a complex and dynamic community of microbes in the mammalian gut, has coevolved with us for ample time providing mutual benefits. However, mechanistic knowledge of these has been limited, but are now becoming increasingly clear. LÄS MER
20. Quantitative 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy in diffuse liver disease
Sammanfattning : The studies in this thesis were delineated to evaluate the diagnostic possibilities in patients with diffuse liver disease by using phosphorus-31 MR spectroscopy and comparing the results with clinical, laboratory and histopathological findings. For this purpose in all 38 patients and 25 controls without evidence of liver disease were examined. LÄS MER
