  1. 1. Oxidative stress, antioxidative defence and outcome of gestation in experimental diabetic pregnancy

    Author : Jonas Cederberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; Diabetes; pregnancy; rat; ROS; free oxygen radicals; TBARS; isoprostanes; protein carbonyls; embryo; vitamin C; vitamin E; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; medicinsk cellbiologi; Medical Cell Biology;

    Abstract : Maternal type 1 diabetes is associated with an increased risk for foetal malformations. The mechanism by which diabetes is teratogenic is not fully known. Previous studies have demonstrated that radical oxygen species can contribute to the teratogenicity of glucose and diabetes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Antioxidant Activity of Bolivian Plant Secondary Metabolites

    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytoprotection; Beta-carotene; TBARS; TEAC; ABTS; antioxidant activity; secondarymetabolites; Highland plains; plants; photoprotection; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Abstract : Certain climatologically-adverse conditions in the basin of the Poopo Lake, located on the high plateau of the Bolivian Altiplano, have prevented the existence of a reliable agricultural system and the impact on the population of the area has been severe. These problems have been the main motivation in choosing this region for this particular study. READ MORE

  3. 3. Oxidation of fish lipids during gastrointestinal in vitro digestion

    Author : Karin Larsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : Fish and many other marine organisms, contain long chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC n-3 PUFA), e.g. eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). EPA and DHA has shown beneficial effects in diseases related to inflammatory processes, such as cardiovascular diseases. READ MORE

    Abstract : Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy causes congenital malformations in the offspring.The aim of this work was to characterize biochemical and morphologic anomaliesin the conceptus of an animal model of diabetic pregnancy. In addition, apreventive treatment against diabetes-induced dysmorphogenesis was developed. READ MORE

  5. 5. Pathophysiology of 5-fluorouracil induced cardiotoxicity : a clinical and experimental study

    Author : Magdalena Cwikiel; Bröstcancer-genetik; []

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the pathophysiology of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) induced cardiotoxicity. The aim of the clinical studies was to determine whether hemorheological factors might explain 5-FU cardiotoxicity (I) and if the syndrome was associated with free radical (FR) generation and lipid peroxidation (II).
