  2. 16. The GH-IGF-1 Axis in Postmenopausal Women with Abdominal Obesity

    Author : Celina Franco Ramos; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Abdominal obesity is associated with blunted growth hormone (GH) secretion. GH treatment in abdominally obese men reduces visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and improves the metabolic profile. READ MORE

  4. 17. Human adipose tissue morphology and function : relation to insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance with focus on pregnancy and women with previous gestational diabetes mellitus

    Author : Henrik Svensson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Adipose tissue; Adipocyte; Adipokines; Insulin resistance; Pregnancy; Gestational diabetes mellitus; Type 2 diabetes;

    Abstract : Obesity is a global health problem and affects women of reproductive age. During pregnancy, obesity increases the risk for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), in turn predisposing for type 2 diabetes (T2D). READ MORE

  5. 18. Metabolic and endocrine function of human adipose tissue with focus on regional differences

    Author : Vanessa van Harmelen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : acylation stimulating protein; adipocytes; adipose tissue heterogeneity; adrenoceptors; insulin; leptin; lipogenesis; lipolysis; noradrenaline; plasminogen activator inhibitor-1; preadipocytes; tumour necrosis factor-cc;

    Abstract : The major function of human adipose tissue is to store excess ingested energy and to release free fatty acids after hydrolysis of triglycerides (lipolysis), to meet the energy demands of other organs. Adipose tissue also has a secretory function. READ MORE

  6. 19. Gene expression in human adipose tissue. Studies of leptin and genes selected by expression profiling

    Author : Britt Gabrielsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : obesity; subcutaneous; omental; DNA microarray; sulfonylurea receptor; fibroblast; growth factors; complement system; fibroblast;

    Abstract : Obesity, and in particular the amount of visceral adipose tissue, is correlated to development of type 2diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The aim of this thesis was to study genes expressed in humanadipose tissue that could be involved in regional adipose tissue homeostasis and/or obesity-associateddisease. READ MORE

  7. 20. Effect of Drugs on Rabbit Retina

    Author : Anna Cardiakidis Myers; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Drug toxicity; electroretinography; histopathology; intravitreal injection; rifabutin; anti-VEGF; triamcinolone; benzyl alcohol; anti-TNF-alpha; adalimumab;

    Abstract : The adverse effects of drugs in the eye are not easily detected, and the underlying pathogenesis not fully understood. The effects of four different kinds of drugs have been investigated in the rabbit eye, using electroretinography, ocular examination and histochemical methods. READ MORE
