Östrogen och serotonin - gamla hundar, nya tricks Detta medför att sockerhalten i blodet höjs. Insulin produceras efter en måltid och signalerar till kroppens muskel -, fett -och leverceller att ta upp och använda sockret i blodet. Cellerna som producerar hormonet insulin finns i bukspottskörteln. Om blodsockret förblir högt under en längre tid tröttas de insulinproducerande cellerna ut och blodso

Fet koppling mellan övervikt och diabetes Fettcellerna spelar en viktig roll i att kontrollera energibalansen i kroppen främst genom att hålla en jämvikt mellan fettupptag och fettfrisättning, något som vid viktuppgång lätt kan bli obalanserat. Här sammanfattar Elin Banke den forskning hon presenterar i sin doktorsavhandling. Fetma ökar snabbt i alla delar av världen och anses idag vara en folksju

Kartlägga mekanismer bakom diabetiska kärlskador För att förhindra de allvarliga kärlskador som drabbar diabetiker är det viktigt att förstå de processer som sätts igång i blodkärlen till följd av de rubbade sockernivåerna. Här skriver Anna Zetterqvist själv om sin doktorsavhandling som hon försvarar 20 september, 2013. Diabetiker löper två till fyra gånger större risk att drabbas av kardiovaskulä

Vasopressin viktig länk mellan diabetes och hjärt- kärlsjukdom Vasopressin är mest känt som ett hormon som reglerar kroppens salt-vätske-balans via effekter i njuren. Idén att undersöka vasopressin-hormonets kopplingar till metabola sjukdomar såsom diabetes och övervikt kom från japanska experiment på möss där man funnit att vasopressin påverkar kroppens fett- och sockeromsättning. Här skriver Sof

Vår fettväv är mer än bara några kilon Ett sätt att öka förståelsen och kunskapen om fetma och diabetes är att på detaljnivå klargöra hur fettceller fungerar och hur deras funktion styrs av hormoner via så kallad cellsignalering. Cellsignalering är en form av kommunikation inne i cellen, som utförs under ett slags organiserat kaos. I de studier som denna avhandling baseras på har vi studerat ett p

Genvariant ger kraftigt ökad insulinfrisättning Som vid många andra sjukdomar är orsaken till diabetes en kombination av ärftlighet och miljöfaktorer. De senaste åren har forskningen gjort stora genombrott på det genetiska området och identifierat flera gener som ökar risken för att få typ 2 diabetes. Här skriver Cecilia Nagorny Holmberg, forskare på Lunds universitets Diabetscenter, om sitt avhan
