  2. 11. Cell signaling and regulation of smooth muscle contraction from a physiological and a pathophysiological perspective

    Author : Lena Boberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to examine the cell signaling and regulation of smooth muscle in different smooth muscle tissues and under pathophysiological conditions. The thesis is based on 4 papers and the experimental work is based on in vitro studies in mouse. READ MORE

  4. 12. Lipoprotein lipase in hemodialysis patients and healthy controls : effects of heparin

    Author : Birgit Näsström; Per-Ola Attman; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : dalteparin; dialysis; lipoprotein metabolism; LMWH; LPL; triglycerides; UFH; uremia; medicinsk och fysiologisk kemi; Medical and Physiological Chemistry;

    Abstract : Mortality from cardiovascular disease in patients on chronic hemodialysis (HD) is 10 to 20 times greater than in the general population. One major risk factor is renal dyslipidemia, characterised by an impaired catabolism of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins with accumulation of atherogenic remnant particles. READ MORE

  5. 13. Psychological and physiological effects on Swedish worker’s health when using a health promotion intervention including mechanical massage and mental training - a pilot study

    Author : Jasmin Muller; Anette Ekström; Britt Hedman Ahlström; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : Alternative; Anxiety; Blood pressure; Complementary; Heart rate; Intervention; Massage; Physical Health; Psychosocial health; Randomized controlled study; Salutogenic theory; Stress; Temperature; Working place;

    Abstract : Introduction:Work-related stress is one of the most challenging issues on workplaces. Reduced ability to relax and recover has been proposed as a key factor behind the increase of stress-related illness among workers. Massage and mental training are two commonly used techniques which may have positive effects on the ability to recover. READ MORE

  6. 14. Dynamic regulation of aryl hydrocarbon receptor function and activity by different stimuli

    Author : Sandra Lücke; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cells have to sense and adapt to changes in their surrounding environment. Most of the cellular responses to environmental and developmental stimuli are mediated by PAS (Per-ARNT-Sim) proteins. A member of this family of proteins is the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated bHLH transcription factor and E3 ubiquitin ligase. READ MORE

  7. 15. Protein Expression in Baltic Sea Blue Mussels Exposed to Natural and Anthropogenic Stress : The use of stress inducible proteins in ecotoxicological studies

    Author : Björne Olsson; Michael Tedengren; Davis Sheehan; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Terrestrial; freshwater and marine ecology; Terrestisk; limnisk och marin ekologi;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is the early detection of stress in the environment. It has been proposed that studies on the cellular level would detect stress reactions earlier in time compared to common physiological methods. READ MORE
