21. Transthyretin in senile systemic amyloidosis and familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy
Sammanfattning : The amyloidoses comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by the deposition of fibrillar, proteinaceous amyloid deposits in various organs and tissues. To date, 17 different proteins of various sizes have been identified as amyloid proteins. LÄS MER
22. Studies of the vitamin A transporting protein complex retinol-binding protein-transthyretin
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
23. Prefibrillar oligomeric Transthyretin mutants - amyloid conformation, toxicity and association with Serum amyloid P component
Sammanfattning : Amyloidoses represent a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by abnormal protein metabolism leading to extracellular deposition of fibrillar, proteinaceous amyloid in various tissues and organs of the body. To date more than 20 different proteins have been linked to diseases with amyloid depositions, of which Alzheimer’s disease and the prion-associated diseases are the most well known. LÄS MER
24. Familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy : studies of genetic factors modifying the phenotype of the disease
Sammanfattning : Background. Familial Amyloidosis with Polyneuropathy (FAP) is an autosomal dominantly inherited systemic amyloid disease. The disease is caused by mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene, where close to 100 different amyloidogenic mutations have been identified. LÄS MER
25. Health symptoms and potential effects on the blood-brain and blood-cerebrospinal fluid barriers associated with use of wireless telephones
Sammanfattning : Recent years have seen a rapid increase in the use of wireless telephones, yet little systematic data exist on the actual use of such devices in the general population. Mobile and cordless telephones emit radiofrequency fields (RF) raising concern about possible adverse health effects. LÄS MER
