Imaging glucose metabolism, neuroinflammation, and cannabinoid receptor 1 in transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-04-13)
The pathophysiological cascade leading to Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by the accumulation of destructive β-amyloid in the brain. Convincing evidence has also shown that cerebral energy hypometabolism and an ...
Stability of the femoral stem in cementless total hip arthroplasty and PET/CT imaging of adverse reaction to metal debris
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-11-09)
Sementittömän lonkan tekonivelleikkauksen onnistumista ikääntyvillä naisilla voi uhata heikentynyt luunlaatu, joka on riski tekonivelen kiinnittymiselle ja stabiliteetille. Tekonivelen liikettä voidaan arvioida ...
Exercise training-induced effects on brown and white adipose tissue metabolism in humans : positron emission tomography studies in health and insulin resistance
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-05-31)
White adipose tissue (WAT) not only serves as a passive energy storage but also has an endocrine role releasing hormones that play a major role in the regulation of whole-body glucose homeostasis and insulin sensitivity. ...
Effects of short-term exercise training on liver, pancreas and intestinal metabolism
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-05-29)
The health benefits of exercise have been known as early as the 5th century. Since then many studies have corroborated these benefits involving both animal and human subjects. But still, the scientific community is uncertain ...
Dual gated PET/CT imaging of heart
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-11-13)
Coronary artery disease (CAD) resulting from atherosclerotic arterial changes, plaques, is a progressive process, which can be asymptomatic for many years. Asymptomatic CAD can cause a heart attack that leads to sudden ...
Molecular imaging of tissue repair after myocardial infarction : preclinical evaluation of novel 68Ga-labeled PET tracers
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-06-01)
Congestive heart failure (HF) develops soon after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in almost 25% of initial survivors. Modern cardiac imaging methods are useful for HF diagnostics and, possibly, the detection of underlying ...
Combined use of PET perfusion imaging and coronary computed tomography angiography in evaluation of stable coronary artery disease
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-05-25)
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) enables non-invasive detection of coronary atherosclerotic plaques. In turn, myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using positron emission tomography (PET) allows non-invasive ...
Oxidative metabolism and non-invasive characterisation of brown adipose tissue in adult humans
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-04-28)
In adult humans, brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been found to be metabolically active. However, the physiological relevance of BAT in adult humans is still imprecise and largely speculative. The study of oxidative metabolism ...
Adipose tissue and brain metabolic adaptations to sprint interval training and moder-ate-intensity continuous training; studies in healthy and insulin resistant subjects.
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-06-15)
Abstract:
Background: Insulin resistance (IR) is associated with metabolic disturbances in several tissues, including increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in brain, decreased glucose uptake in adipose tissue and ...
Brown and white adipose tissue metabolism in obesity: stimulation by cold and meal ingestion
(Turun yliopisto, 2022-05-21)
Adipose tissue (AT) metabolism is dysregulated in obesity. Reduced brown adipose tissue (BAT) glucose uptake during cold exposure is associated with obesity and insulin resistance, but the role of fatty acids in human BAT ...
