  2. 1. Influences of Endogenous and Exogenous Hormones in Middle-aged Women

    Author : Ali Khatibi Esfanjani; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lipid profile; Blood pressure; Non-hormonal drug; Middle-aged women; Cardiovascular disease; Menopause; Androstendione; Androgen; Testosterone;

    Abstract : Endogenous and exogenous sex hormones are of pivotal importance for women’s health. Hormone therapy has been widely studied but there is limited data about androgen and androgen replacement therapy. READ MORE

  4. 2. Development and Application of ToF-SIMS for Clinical and Microbiological Analysis

    Author : Kelly Dimovska Nilsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ToF-SIMS; Imaging mass spectrometry; Antibiotic resistance; Basal cell carcinoma; Gas cluster ion beam; GCIB; Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry; BCC; Escherichia coli; E. coli; FabF; DapF; Lpp; Lipid A; ECAcyc; Depth profile;

    Abstract : The aim of the work of this thesis was to further the implementation of timeof-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) in biological analysis and to generate new knowledge from the samples analysed. ToF-SIMS is a chemical analysis technique. READ MORE

  5. 3. The role of PPARalpha and growth hormone in hepatic lipid metaboism and atherosclerosis

    Author : Anna Ljungberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : growth hormone; PPARalpha; atherosclerosis; lipid metabolism; fatty acids; apoB; ; ADRP; triglycerides; PGC-1; liver;

    Abstract : Dyslipidemia mainly results from oversecretion of apoB-containing lipoproteins from theliver and is one of the most important risk factors for the development of atherosclerosis.Growth hormone (GH) plays a key role in the regulation of lipoprotein metabolism and thus,disturbances in GH secretion are associated with dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease.

  6. 4. Atomistic computer simulations of lipid bilayers

    Author : Jakob Wohlert; Olle Edholm; Siewert-Jan Marrink; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik;

    Abstract : Computer simulation has become an important tool for the study of biomolecular systems. This thesis deals with molecular dynamics simulations of one-component lipid bilayers, which may serve as models for biological membranes. READ MORE

  7. 5. Quantitative influence of exogenous androgens on serum lipid profile and endocrine functions

    Author : Nina Gårevik; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) in doping have been a concern predominantly in sports. The focus has now switched to the doping in the society which is a significant problem for the public health. The abuse of AAS is associated with mental and somatic side effects and with the use of several other drugs including narcotics. READ MORE
