  2. 2. Studies of bioactive lipids in cancer

    Author : Vicky Chatzakos; Petra De Verdier; Jenny Flygare; Åke Nilsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lipids; Sphingolipids; N-acyl amino acids; cancer; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : Lipids are a broad class of molecules that, besides being a major form of energy storage and components of cell membranes, act as bioactive signalling molecules. N-acyl taurines are structurally related to endocannabinoids that are known to exert antiproliferative actions in a variety of cancer cells. READ MORE

  3. 3. Lipase-catalyzed production of structured triacylglycerols

    Author : Ariana Causevic; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Structured lipids; Lipase; Acyl migration; Immobilization; Lipid analysis; Transesterification; Water activity;

    Abstract : Vegetable oils and fats are major energy sources but also play an essential part in the physical and chemical properties of food products. The current change in the climate is affecting harvest yields, leading to a shortage and increased prices of raw materials that are difficult to replace. READ MORE

  4. 4. Compositional clues to sources and sinks of terrestrial organic matter transported to the Eurasian Arctic shelf

    Author : Emma Karlsson; Örjan Gustafsson; Volker Brüchert; Thorsten Dittmar; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organic carbon; degradation; microcosm; incubation; terrestrial biomarkers; acyl lipids; lignin phenols; radiocarbon; Eurasian Arctic shelf; East Siberian Sea; Laptev Sea; Lena River; colloidal matter; particulate matter; sedimentary matter; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : The amount of organic carbon (OC) present in Siberian Arctic permafrost soils is estimated at twice the amount of carbon currently in the atmosphere. The shelf seas of the Arctic Ocean receive large amounts of this terrestrial OC from Eurasian Arctic rivers and from coastal erosion. READ MORE

  5. 5. Biosynthesis and physiological functions of N-acyl amino acids

    Author : Dominik Paweł Waluk; Mary C. Hunt; David Merkler; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : N-acyl amino acids are lipid signalling molecules that have recently been identified in biological systems. These lipids are structurally related to the endocannabinoids, although they do not activate cannabinoid receptors. READ MORE
