  2. 1. Identification and imaging of lipids in tissues using TOF-SIMS

    Author : Ylva Magnusson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : mass spectrometry; lipids; fatty acids; diacylglycerols; triacylglycerols; TOF-SIMS; adipose tissue; aortic wall; skeletal muscle; obesity; principal component analysis;

    Abstract : Introduction: Normal lipid metabolism in the adipose tissue, skeletal muscle and aortic wall is important for the physiological function of these tissues. Dyslipidemia that is often associated with intake of high energy diet and sedentary lifestyles can lead to the development of insulin resistance and cardiovascular diseases. READ MORE

  7. 5. Insulin control of glucose transport in caveolae microdomains of the plasma membrane

    Author : Johanna Gustavsson; Harriet Wallberg-Henriksson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Caveolae are invaginated, dynamic microdomains in the plasma membrane and believed to be involved in receptor-mediated uptake of small molecules (potocytosis) and in signal transduction. A phosphatidylinositol glycan, a precursor of potential insulin second messengers, has been found to be enriched in the caveolae-fraction of adipocyte plasma membranes (Parpal et al. READ MORE
