  2. 1. Studies of individual pancreatic -cells : Electrophysiological analysis of rhythmic behaviour and development of new techniques

    Author : Staffan Dryselius; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; Diabetes; pancreatic beta-cells; insulin release; signal transduction; cytoplasmic calcium; oscillations; patch clamp; ATP-regulated potassium channels; voltage-dependent calcium channels; metabolism; calcium ion; strontium ion; manganese ion; wavelets; de-noising; pattern recognition; superfusion; solution changes; microscopic labelling; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; medicinsk cellbiologi; Medical Cell Biology;

    Abstract : The insulin concentration in blood varies periodically, which is believed to prevent down-regulation of the hormone receptors. Loss of the regular insulin oscillations is considered to be an early sign of developing diabetes. READ MORE

  4. 2. Low biocide emission antifouling based on a novel route of barnacle intoxication

    Author : Emiliano Pinori; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; antifouling; Barnacles; ivermectin; low biocide emission; marine fouling; marine paint; ISO 15181; ToF-SIMS;

    Abstract : Marine biofouling can be defined as the colonization of man-made surfaces in seawater by microscopic and macroscopic organisms. This phenomenon can result in great loss of function and effectiveness both for cruising ships and for static constructions. READ MORE

  5. 3. Zinc-enriched neurons in the spinal cord, cerebellum and peripheral sympathetic system

    Author : Zhan-You Wang; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : autometallography; axonal transport; confocal laser scanning microscopy; immuno-electron microscopy; immunofluorescence; inhibitory neurons; sympathetic neurons; synaptic vesicles; zinc ions; zinc transporter;

    Abstract : Zinc ions are abundant in the nervous system and are involved in many biological functions. Most zinc is tightly bound to macromolecules, whereas a small fraction of zinc exists in synaptic vesicles of the zinc-enriched (ZEN) neurons, and can be visualized using various histochemical techniques, including autometallography (AMG).

  6. 4. The type IV Oligodendrocyte : experimental studies on chicken white matter

    Author : Emma S. Anderson; Arthur M. Butt; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : In mammals, islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP) is co-produced with insulin in pancreatic ß-cells. In the chicken, the expression of IAPP in the brain is more than 10-fold higher than in the pancreas. READ MORE
