During lipolysis of chylomicron triacylglycerol by lipoprotein lipase, arachidonic acid (AA) esters are hydrolyzed at a slower rate than the predominant 16-18 carbon fatty acid esters. The further metabolism of the AA that is hereby enriched in the chylomicron remnant acylglycerols has not been investigated. In the present study, we examined the low density lipoprotein (LDL) dependent and independDuring lipolysis of chylomicron triacylglycerol by lipoprotein lipase, arachidonic acid (AA) esters are hydrolyzed at a slower rate than the predominant 16-18 carbon fatty acid esters.

Detta kapitel handlar om en grupp barn som fick sina första erfarenheter av samhällsvård i 0-4-årsåldern. Därefter har de en varierande placeringshistoria under barndomen (0-18 år). De har följts upp vid åtta olika tillfällen under barndom och vuxenliv. Detta kapitel fokuserar på hur de hade det i 25-30-årsåldern samt i 35-39-årsåldern, eftersom det är glest med uppföljningar av barn med erfarenhe

The γ-backscattering imaging techniques are alternative methods to the transmission techniques to determine the amount and distribution of matter in objects. Images obtained with a γ-backscattering device are presented. In order to increase the understanding of the image formation process and to assist in the data analysis, a simulation of the camera was developed using the Geant4 simulation toolk

A fundamental challenge in medical microbiology is to characterize the dynamic protein-protein interaction networks formed at the host-pathogen interface. Here, we generate a quantitative interaction map between the significant human pathogen, Streptococcus pyogenes, and proteins from human saliva and plasma obtained via complementary affinity-purification and bacterial-surface centered enrichment

This book offers an in-depth and critical analysis of the Istanbul Convention, along with discussions on its impact and implications.The work highlights the place of the Convention in the landscape of international law and policies on violence against women and equality. The authors argue that the Convention with its emphasis on integrated and comprehensive policies has an important role in promot

Article 5 of the Council of Europe Convention on Preventing and Combating Violence against Women and Domestic Violence (the Istanbul Convention) enshrines the standard of due diligence to frame states’ obligations. In the existing literature in the area of violence against women, the standard of due diligence has been uncritically endorsed; the reason being that it has played a crucial role in the

The European Court of Human Rights has consistently reiterated that positive obligations under the European Convention on Human Rights arise when state authorities knew or ought to have known about risk of harm. This article attempts to describe and assess the role of state knowledge in the framework of positive obligations, and to situate the Court’s approach to knowledge about risk within an int

BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress may be involved in the aetiology of inflammatory bowel disease and whether dietary polyphenols, which possess antioxidants properties, prevent its development is unknown.METHODS: A total of 401,326 men and women aged 20 to 80 years from 8 countries were recruited between 1991 and 1998 and at baseline completed validated food frequency questionnaires. Dietary polyphenol

Gender influences how researchers engage with the field (Porter & Schänzel, 2018). Departing from this proposition, this chapter offers reflections on gender from masculine vantages in the context of a qualitative research project investigating tourism enterprising in southern Sweden. Tourism enterprising is an important aspect of tourism development. Focusing on personal experiences associate
