  2. 1. Modulation of adaptive immune responses in mice upon exposure to peroxisome proliferators

    Author : Qian Yang; Norbert Latruffe; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : At present, there is an increasing awareness that exposure of mammals to drugs or other foreign chemicals can result in modulation of immunological responses via direct or indirect mechanisms. Changes in the immune system can obviously have profound physiological and pathological consequences. READ MORE

  5. 3. Proteomic Analysis of Peroxisomal Proteins

    Author : Jia Mi; Susana Cristobal; Bettina Warscheid; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Cell and molecular biology; peroxisome; proteomics; biomarker; aging; pollution assessment; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Abstract : Peroxisome is a ubiquitous eukaryotic organelle with a single-layer membrane. It maintains various functions that differ depending on the species and cell types, as well as the environmental or developmental conditions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Structure and function of the HDL receptor SR-BI : scavenger receptor class B type I

    Author : Magnus S.C. Johnson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SR-BI; HDL; Cholesterol; Scavenger receptor; Apoptosis; Ovary; Gallbladder; Peroxisome;

    Abstract : Low plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are well-recognized risk factors for cardiovascular disease. The uptake and degradation of LDL cholesterol have been characterized in detail at the molecular level. Less is known about the metabolism and cellular uptake of HDL cholesterol. READ MORE

  7. 5. The mammalian peroxisome : ‛its function and distribution’

    Author : Veronika Tillander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Peroxisomes are essential organelles for normal cell functions in all organisms from yeast to human. Their important contribution in different metabolic pathways is clearly visible by the severe phenotypes seen in the majority of peroxisomal diseases, where the symptoms often leads to an early death.
