  1. 6. Phytostabilisation : use of wetland plants to treat mine tailings

    Författare :Eva Stoltz; Maria Greger; Lena Kautsky; Marinus Otte; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Phytostabilisation; wetland plants; mine tailings; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Mine tailings can be rich in sulphide minerals and may form acid mine drainage (AMD) through reaction with atmospheric oxygen and water. AMD contains elevated levels of metals and arsenic (As) that could be harmful to animals and plants. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Active workstations : a NEAT way to prevent and treat overweight and obesity?

    Författare :Frida Bergman; Tommy Olsson; Ann Sörlin; Carl-Johan Boraxbekk; Patrik Wennberg; Fredrik Öhberg; Mats Börjesson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; treadmill workstations; sedentary behaviour; light-intensity physical activity; non-exercise activity thermogenesis; office workers; obesity;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Modern society is triggering sedentary behaviours in different domains. Different strategies can be used to reduce the time spent sitting and increase physical activity in the office environment, which is one domain where sedentary time is often high. One such strategy could be to install treadmill workstations. LÄS MER

  3. 8. A modular mRNA approach to study and treat phospholamban mediated cardiomyopathies

    Författare :Eduarde Rohner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In the heart, phospholamban (PLN) is a key regulator of calcium cycling through its inhibitory effect on the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump. For more than two decades, modulating calcium channels has been a strong focus of prospective cardiac therapeutics with a recent emphasis on targeting PLN itself, partially due to the progressive uncovering of several cardiomyopathic PLN human mutations.

  4. 9. Translational genetics identifies a novel target to treat fatty liver disease

    Författare :Kavitha Sasidharan; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Fatty liver disease; human genetics; GWAS; PSD3; spheroids;

    Sammanfattning : Fatty liver disease (FLD) is rapidly prevailing as the most common liver disease worldwide, with an estimated of one-quarter of the global population affected. Environmental and genetic determinants contribute to FLD susceptibility. LÄS MER

  5. 10. The DNA repair enzymes MTH1 and OGG1 as targets to treat inflammation

    Författare :Stella Karsten; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic and acute inflammatory diseases, such as multiple sclerosis (MS), psoriasis and sepsis, account for vast disability and morbidity in the world. Several new immunomodulating treatment alternatives have been developed over the past decades, but there is still an urgent need for new options. LÄS MER
