  2. 1. Calcium-induced mitochondrial permeability transition in CNS-derived mitochondria - Pharmacological aspects of specificity and toxicity in neuroprotection

    Author : Roland Månsson; Sektion IV; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cyclosporin A; mitochondria; brain; calcium; respiration; cell death; permeability transition; calcium retention; minocycline; neuroprotection; Debio 025;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are the main site for energy conversion in the cell. Under certain circumstances, such as excess calcium retention or production of reactive oxygen species, a pore forms at contact sites between the outer and the normally impermeable inner mitochondrial membrane.

  4. 2. EGF-like modules in blood coagulation proteins : Ca²+ binding, module interactions, structure and dynamics as studied by NMR spectroscopy

    Author : Andreas Muranyi; Biofysikalisk kemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; residual dipolar couplings; protein S; factor VII; protein structure; calcium; blood coagulation; NMR spectroscopy; EGF modules; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

    Abstract : Modules are independently folding protein domains defined on the gene level. The epidermal growth factor-like (EGF) modules are involved in protein-protein interactions and are found in numerous membrane proteins and extracellular proteins, including many proteins of the blood coagulation system.

  5. 3. Synthesis, Function, and Inactivation of Blood Coagulation Factor V

    Author : Kristoffer Sørensen; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; activated protein C; heparin; calcium binding; R2 haplotype; Blood Coagulation; Factor V; Clinical chemistry; Klinisk kemi;

    Abstract : Blood coagulation factor V (FV) is a 330 kDa plasma glycoprotein. Activated FV (FVa) is a non-enzymatic cofactor to activated Factor X in the activation of prothrombin that occurs during coagulation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Primary Hyperparathyroidism : A Study of Cardiovascular Dysfunction and its Reversibility After Parathyroidectomy

    Author : Inga-Lena Nilsson; Lars-Ove Farnebo; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; primary hyperparathyroidism; vascular endothelium; heart; heart rate variability; blood pressure; parathyroidectomy; calcium; parathyroid hormone; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Abstract : Cardiovascular risk in primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is controversial, and studies mainly from Europe associate HPT with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Cardiovascular morphology and function were evaluated prospectively in 31 consecutive HPT patients (mean serum calcium 2.97±0. READ MORE

  7. 5. The involvement of calcium and membrane fusion events in neutrophil secretion and respiratory burst

    Author : Daniel Granfeldt; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neutrophils; calcium; regulated secretion; membrane fusion; SOC; arachidonic acid; intracellular fusion; oxygen free radicals; phagocytosis;

    Abstract : Neutrophil granulocytes play an important role in host defence during the early stages of microbial infection. The neutrophils have to leave the blood stream and migrate out into the tissue where they are able to phagocytose and kill microbes as well as dispose of cell debris from damaged tissues. READ MORE
