    Abstract : Celiac disease is a prevalent small bowel disease in children caused by permanent intolerance against gliadin, which is the alcohol-soluble fraction of the cereal protein gluten in wheat, rye and barley. Celiac disease is characterized by an inflammatory infiltrate of CD4+ T lymphocytes in the intestinal mucosa leading to damage of villous structure and loss of absorptive surface. READ MORE

  4. 2. Studies on receptors for modified LDL in human monocytes and macrophages : a link between diabetes and atherosclerosis?

    Abstract : Type 2 diabetes increases the risk for cardiovascular disease three- to fourfold. Because of the rise in diabetes prevalence there is a need for a better understanding of the link between diabetes and atherosclerosis. READ MORE

  5. 3. Pinpointing biomarkers of importance for children with combined type 1 diabetes and celiac disease

    Abstract : Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease are both characterized by an autoimmune feature. The diseases also share the same risk genes, and thereby patients have an increased risk of developing the other disease subsequently. READ MORE

  6. 4. Jejunoileal bypass for morbid obesity : studies of the long-term effects

    Author : Anders Sylvan; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Jejunoileal bypass; Obesity; Surgery; Liver biopsy; Fibrinolytic system; Colonoscopy; Flow cytometry; Cancer risk;

    Abstract : This study was aimed at investigating adverse and beneficial long-term effects of jejunoileal bypass (JIB) sugery in obese patients. The JIB was the first widly used surgical procedure for treatment of morbid obesity. The weight loss was remarkable, but the procedure was declared not appropiate for obesity surgery in the late 1970's. READ MORE

  7. 5. On the Role of Polyamines in Apoptosis

    Author : Cecilia Hegardt; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SSAT; DENSPM; spermine; polyamines; mitochondrial membrane potential; cytochrome c; caspase; flow cytometry; Jurkat cells; mouse thymocytes; thymus in vivo; programmed cell death; Dexamethasone-induced apoptosis; Fas-induced apoptosis; AdoMetDC; Cytology; oncology; cancerology; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer; Clinical biology; Klinisk biologi; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi;

    Abstract : Apoptosis is a kind of death that is best described as cellular suicide and it is important for normal tissue homeostasis. The process can be induced by a number of different stimuli and the dying cell goes through a defined pathway terminating in typical biochemical and morphological alterations of the cell. READ MORE
