  2. 21. Structural and functional studies of protein complexes involved in energy metabolism

    Author : Jens Berndtsson; Martin Ott; Irene Diaz-Moreno; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mitochondria; metabolism; OXPHOS; yeast respiratory supercomplex; cytochrome c; coenzyme Q; pyruvate dehydrogenase complex; Biochemistry; biokemi;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are eukaryotic organelles with a multitude of functions including biosynthesis of molecules and cellular regulation. Most prominently though is their role in energy conversion which culminates with the production of ATP, the universal molecular unit of currency. READ MORE

  4. 22. Astrocyte metabolism following focal cerebral ischemia

    Author : Anna E Thoren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Astrocyte; metabolism; focal cerebral ischemia; reperfusion; infarct; [1-14C]acetate; [U-14C]glucose; glutamine; glutamate; ATP; ADP; lactate; MCT4; immunogold cytochemistry;

    Abstract : Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability and death. Most often, stroke results from blockage of an artery in the brain leading to tissue infarction within the perfusion territory of the affected vessel. READ MORE

  5. 23. Systems biology of yeast metabolism - Understanding metabolism through proteomics and constraint-based modeling

    Author : Carl Malina; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; proteomics; metabolism; Systems biology; constraint-based modeling; yeast;

    Abstract : Metabolism is the set of all chemical reactions that occur inside of cells. By providing all the building blocks that are required for sustaining a cellular state and cell proliferation, metabolism is at the core of cellular function. Therefore, in order to understand cellular function it is important to understand cellular metabolism. READ MORE

  6. 24. Nutrition in the second year of life. Effects of different milk compositions on dietary intakes, growth and metabolism

    Author : Johan Svahn; Lund Pediatrik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein intake; nitrogen; iron fortification; iron intake; growth; fatty acids; fat metabolism; fat intake; energy intake; dietary intake; blood lipids; cow´s milk; cholesterol; Amino acids; children; protein metabolism.; Pediatrics; Pediatri;

    Abstract : In the diet for young children, whole cow´s milk is the major contributor of calories, protein and saturated fat, but it supplies little iron and polyunsaturated fat. Although several recommendations exist for the composition of formula, recommendations for the composition of milk for young children are lacking. READ MORE

  7. 25. Enterostatin - target proteins and intracellular mechanisms. Function in food intake and energy metabolism

    Author : Karin Berger; Molekylär endokrinologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ATP; energy metabolism; insulin; uncoupling protein; beta-casomorphin; opiate; SK-N-MC; INS-1; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; fat intake; F1F0-ATP synthase; appetite; enterostatin; satiety; obesity;

    Abstract : Hunger and satiety are the results of complex neural events that involve several neurotransmitters and peptides. Enterostatin is an appetite-regulating peptide released in the intestine in response to fat ingestion. Enterostatin specifically decreases fat intake, but has also metabolic effects like inhibition of insulin secretion. READ MORE
