Neuropsychiatric symptoms and brain dopamine transporter imaging in Parkinson's disease
(Turun yliopisto, 2018-11-16)
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative movement disorder. The motor symptoms of PD are linked to the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra, which leads to dopamine depletion in the ...
The Effect of Bariatric Surgery on Adipose Tissue Energy Metabolism in Type 2 Diabetes
(Turun yliopisto, 2019-01-25)
Obesity-related metabolic disturbances typically occur when the available energy exceeds the storage capacity of white adipose tissue (WAT), which can lead to ectopic lipid deposition, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. ...
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. ...
