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 ...
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 ...
Development of radiopharmaceuticals for PET imaging of Inflammation - VAP-1, FR-beta and CLEVER-1 as target molecules
(Turun yliopisto, 2022-11-25)
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a non-invasive technology widely used in oncology, cardiology, neurology and inflammation imaging. PET can detect the expression of receptors, genes and molecular pathways in both ...
PET imaging of ischaemic myocardial injury and angiogenesis
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-10-09)
The myocardium of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) often is a mixture of ischaemic but viable tissue and irreversibly injured scar tissue. The viable tissue has capability of functional recovery after restoration ...
Targeting Macrophage Mannose Receptor CD206 for Detection of Inflammation by Positron Emission Tomography
(Turun yliopisto, 2025-07-07)
Inflammation is a regulated adaptive response that protects the body’s normal function and homeostasis. However, when dysregulated, it can contribute to the development of chronic disease. Chronic cardiovascular diseases, ...
The Effects of reducing sedentary behavior on cardiovascular health: A Randomized controlled trial in adults with metabolic syndrome
(Turun yliopisto, 2025-08-08)
Observational evidence suggests that a high volume of sedentary behavior (SB) associates with adverse cardiovascular health, yet interventional evidence remains limited. The aim of this doctoral thesis was to investigate ...
Sedentary behavior, physical activity, and energy metabolism in metabolic syndrome : with special reference to insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility
(Turun yliopisto, 2024-09-28)
ABSTRACT
This study investigated the relationships between physical activity behaviors and energy metabolism in 64 middle-aged, sedentary adults with metabolic syndrome. Associations were examined cross-sectionally, and ...
Positron emission tomography imaging of disease activity in atherosclerosis
(Turun yliopisto, 2024-08-09)
Ateroskleroosi on etenevä tulehduksellinen sairaus, jossa rasvaa ja sidekudosta kertyy verisuonten seinämiin. Tyypin 2 diabeteksen (T2DM) esiintyvyys on vuosien aikana noussut maailmanlaajuisesti ja sen tiedetään kiihdyttävän ...
Magnetic resonance imaging In Alzheimer’s disease, mild cognitive impairment and normal aging : Multi-template tensor-based morphometry and visual rating
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-02-19)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease preceded by a stage of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The structural brain changes in AD can be detected more than 20 years before symptoms appear. ...
Preclinical evaluation of novel radiopharmaceuticals for positron emission tomography imaging of animal models of multiple sclerosis
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-11-06)
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common autoimmune disease of central nervous system (CNS) that causes chronic neurological impairment and clinical disability. Neuroinflammation is a major element in MS pathology and ...
