  1. 1. Folate, Hormones and Infertility : Different factors affecting IVF pregnancy outcome

    Author : Tiina Murto; Anneli Stavreus-Evers; Agneta Skoog Svanberg; Sven-Eric Olsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Folate; folic acid supplement; homocysteine; hormones; infertility; IVF; lifestyle factor; MTHFR; predictive value; socioeconomic factor; women; Obstetrik och gynekologi; Obstetrics and Gynaecology;

    Abstract : Various hormones have been studied as regards prediction of pregnancy outcome after infertility treatment, but no ideal candidate has been found. Folate and genetic variations in folate metabolism have also been associated with infertility, but it remains unclear how these factors affect IVF pregnancy outcome. READ MORE

  2. 2. Calcium Homeostasis After Thyroid Surgery

    Author : Pia Lindblom; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PTH-peripheral effects; hPTH- 1-34 infusion; EDTA infusion; Set-point; Vitamin D3; PTH; Calcium; Thyroid surgery; Postoperative hypocalcemia; Bone density.; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi; Reduced thyroid hormones;

    Abstract : Calcium homeostasis after thyroid surgery was studied during the immediate postoperative period and after one year. One day after hemithyroidectomy ionised calcium decreased whereas basal PTH did not change. EDTA stimulated maximal and total PTH secretion and set-point decreased on postoperative day 1 and normalised on day 7. READ MORE

  3. 3. Regulation of E-cadherin mediated adhesion in thyroid epithelial cells

    Author : Fredrik Larsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : thyroid; adherens junction; E-cadherin; thyrotropin; cAMP; PKA; Epac; IQGAP;

    Abstract : Cell adhesion is one of multicellular organisms most fundamental features. Cells connect to each other by transmembrane proteins arranged in junction complexes. READ MORE

  4. 4. Studies on the etiology of endemic goiter in the Sudan : The role of pearl millet

    Author : Abdelsalam Elnour; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; Pearl millet; endemic goiter; thyroid hormones; thyroiditis; traditional fermentation; heattreatment; flavonoid; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Nutrition; näringslära;

    Abstract : Endemic thyroid disorders (ETD) are major health problems worldwide. Although the major role of iodine deficiency in the etiology of ETD is well founded, other factors have been shown to contribute to its etiology as well. READ MORE

  5. 5. Thyroid hormones and their receptors in transcriptional regulation

    Author : Monika Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Thyroid hormone receptor; regulatory response element; palindrome; directrepeat; everted repeat; DNA hinding domain; P75gag-v-erbA; differentiation; nuclearlocalization; repression.;

    Abstract : The thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) are encoded by two genes, alpha and ß, and belong to a family of hormone activated nuclear receptors. This family includes the receptors for retinoids and vitamin D3 as well as the receptors for steroid hormones. READ MORE
