Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is an incretin hormone with extrapancreatic effects beyond glycemic control. Here we demonstrate unexpected effects of GIP signaling in the vasculature. GIP induces the expression of the pro-atherogenic cytokine osteopontin (OPN) in mouse arteries, via local release of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and activation of cAMP response element binding protein (CR

Continuous evaluation of model results against observational data isvital to improving model projections of the structure and function offorest ecosystems. In this poster, we evaluate the forest management module of LPJ-GUESS (ver. 4. 1.2, rev 11016) across a latitudinal gradient in Sweden. The poster was presented at the LPJ-GUESS Community Meeting in Lund, May 3rd, 2023.

INTRODUCTION: Monocytes are key effector cells in inflammatory processes. We and others have previously shown that synovial monocytes in childhood-onset arthritis are activated. However, very little is known about how they contribute to disease and attain their pathological features. Therefore, we set out to investigate the functional alterations of synovial monocytes in childhood-onset arthritis,

The ecosystem-atmosphere flux of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) has important impacts on tropospheric oxidative capacity and the formation of secondary organic aerosols, influencing air quality and climate. Here we present within-canopy measurements of a set of dominant BVOCs in a managed spruce- and pine-dominated boreal forest located at the ICOS (Integrated Carbon Observation Syste

The ongoing climate change can modulate the behavior of global vegetation and influence the terrestrial biosphere carbon sink. Past observation-based studies have mainly focused on the linear trend or interannual variability of the vegetation greenness, but could not explicitly deal with the effect of natural decadal variability due to the short length of observations. Here we put the variabilitie

BACKGROUND: Early detection of coronary atherosclerosis using coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA), in addition to coronary artery calcification (CAC) scoring, may help inform prevention strategies. We used CCTA to determine the prevalence, severity, and characteristics of coronary atherosclerosis and its association with CAC scores in a general population.METHODS: We recruited 30 154 r

The hepatokine follistatin is elevated in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and promotes hyperglycemia in mice. Here we explore the relationship of plasma follistatin levels with incident T2D and mechanisms involved. Adjusted hazard ratio (HR) per standard deviation (SD) increase in follistatin levels for T2D is 1.24 (CI: 1.04-1.47, p < 0.05) during 19-year follow-up (n = 4060, Sweden); and 1.31

Incorporation of a forest management module in the dynamic vegetation model LPJ-GUESS has allowed the study and predictions of management treatment effects on the carbon cycle and on forest ecosystem structure. In this study, LPJ-GUESS is evaluated at the regional scale against observational data from the Swedish National Forest Inventory. Simulated standing volume is compared against observations

Background: MRI is an important tool in the prostate cancer work-up, with special emphasis on the ADC sequence. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between ADC and ADC ratio compared to tumor aggressiveness determined by a histopathological examination after radical prostatectomy.Methods: Ninety-eight patients with prostate cancer underwent MRI at five different hospitals prior to radi

Glaciers are one of the main sources of freshwater in cold regions. The glacier melting process can significantly impact the glacier mass balance (GMB) and contribute a large amount of runoff in cold regions. This study applied the recently developed semi-distributed glacio-hydrological conceptual model (FLEXG) to understand the glacier melting process and the effect of topography on GMB in the To

Brottmekaniska processer ar något som intresserat människor i alla tider. Ibland har det varit för att vinna en fördel t ex vid tillverking av flintverktyg och malmbrytning, men oftast for att förhindra mekanisk kollaps. I det senare fallet kan oförsiktighet resultera i spruckna tallrikar eller trasiga fönster, men ocksa i allvarligare saker som brott i flygplansvingar eller fartygsskrov som i vär

Hvor godt forstår den unge generation af danskere og svenskere hinanden?Ikke særlig godt, ifølge en undersøgelse foretaget i Malmø og København i efteråret 2012 og foråret 2013. De unge synes heller ikke at være synderligt optaget af, hvad der foregår lige ovre på den anden side af Sundet, hvilket er tankevækkende i en tid, hvor mulighederne for at bevæge sig mellem nabolandene aldrig har været be

Vi vill karaktärisera fenomenet konceptbutik och undersöka hur den kan fungera som ett verktyg, för att bygga upp sitt varumärke. Konceptbutiker handlar om att ge upplevelser och erbjuda aktiviteter. Genom de fem sinnena kan man involvera kunden och ge den en upplevelse. Det optimala för en konceptbutik är att enbart sälja ett varumärke då dess syfte är att stärka det. Personalen och interiören ha

Human-bacterial interactions play a crucial role in several essential aspects of life. Here, we describe how a secreted protein from the skin commensal Cutibacterium acnes, RoxP, functions as a sacrificial redox effector molecule that facilitates beneficial interactions with its human host by counteracting oxidative stress and reducing stress-induced inflammation. Using a combination of structural

After the clinical implementation of amyloid-β-targeting therapies for people with cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (AD), there is an urgent need to efficiently identify this patient population in primary care. Therefore, we created a brief and self-administered digital cognitive test battery (BioCog). Based on its sub-scores, a logistic regression model was developed in a secondary

BACKGROUND: Excessive dietary salt intake is associated with elevated blood pressure and damage to organs including the heart, vasculature, and kidneys. Women are more prone to salt-sensitive hypertension, yet preclinical studies often focus on men.METHODS: To examine sex-specific responses to chronic salt loading, male and female C57Bl6/J mice were fed a high-salt diet (HSD; 8% NaCl) from 7 to 14
