    Abstract : Islet transplantation has found its niche in diabetes treatment. It has contributed to a better quality of life and better glycemic control of patients with diabetes suffering from severe hypoglycemia that are not eligible for vascularized pancreas transplantation. Islet isolation is a technically challenging procedure. READ MORE

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ovulation; protein tyrosine kinase; ovulation; leukotriene B4; intrafollicular pressure; contractions and smooth muscle cell.;

    Abstract : Ovulation is the process whereby the preovulatory follicle ruptures to enable a fertilisable ovum to escape from the interior of the ovary to the oviduct. During the ovulatory process, from he onset of the preovulatory LH-surge to the follicular rupture, marked biochemical and structural changes in follicles to enable it to rupture. READ MORE

  5. 5. Cervical ripening : an inflammatory process involving cytokines, metalloproteinases and foetal fibronectin

    Author : Maria Sennström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cervical ripening; interleukin-8; interleukin-6; granulocyte colony stimulating factor; metalloproteinase- 1; -3 - and -8; foetal fibronectin;

    Abstract : The aim of the thesis was to identify cytokines, metalloproteinases and foetal fibronectin in human cervical tissue and to investigate if changes are of importance for the final cervical ripening. The human cervical ripening is a prerequisite for a normal start and progress of labour. READ MORE
