  2. 1. Vascular mechanisms in ovulation

    Author : Kenrokuro Mitsube; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : angiotensin; blood flow; nitric oxide; ovary; ovulation; permeability; permselectivity; rat.;

    Abstract : Ovulation is a unique biological process, which involves the degradation and rupture of healthy tissue of the ovarian follicle and the extrusion of the oocyte. This process is initiated by the preovulatory surge of luteinizing hormone (LH), which leads to the up-regulation of various intraovarian mediators. READ MORE

  4. 2. Properties of the glomerular endothelial cell surface layer in vitro and in vivo

    Author : Vincent Fridén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Glomerular filtration; Glomerular endothelial cell surface layer; Proteinuria; Proteoglycans; glycocalyx; glycosaminoglycans; glomerular endothelial cells; permselectivity and glomerular endothelial cell coat;

    Abstract : A healthy kidney produces final urine that is practically devoid of proteins and other physiologically important solutes. Tremendous amounts of fluid are filtered every day through the glomerular filtration barrier which is the actual sieving site in the kidney. READ MORE

  5. 3. A Passive Sampling System for Monitoring Metals in the Aquatic Environment

    Author : Lena B Blom; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; metal diffusion; metal monitoring; metal speciation; aquatic systems; passive sampling system;

    Abstract : Water monitoring is undertaken routinely as a requirement of water quality legislation. It is usual that water monitoring is undertaken through spot sampling. A passive sampling system has been developed for the aquatic environment that provides time-averaged (integrated) concentrations for metals. READ MORE

  6. 4. Permeability of the glomerular filtration barrier in relation to the size, shape, charge and deformability of the permeating molecules

    Author : Daniel Asgeirsson; Njurmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proteinuria; capillary physiology; peritoneal membrane; dialysis; microalbuminuria; cardiovascular; endothelial dysfunction; diagnosis;

    Abstract : Characterization of the glomerular filtration barrier is of fundamental importance for understanding the pathophysiology of proteinuric kidney diseases. Furthermore, it can be of key value in the understanding of microalbuminuria, which is often associated with endothelial dysfunction in conjunction with cardiovascular disease. READ MORE

  7. 5. Characterization of novel genes of importance for renal glomerular function and disease

    Author : Ásmundur Oddsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : kidney glomerulus;

    Abstract : Glomerular kidney diseases are a major health care burden. The glomerular filtration barrier consists of three layers: the slit diaphragm that bridges the interlocking foot pro- cesses of the podocytes, the glomerular basement membrane and fenestrated endothelial cells. READ MORE
