Adipose Tissue Gene Expression & Candidate Genes for Obesity Obesity results from an interaction between genetic and environmental factors and is a growing health problem associated with development of insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. This thesis has focused on investigating the genetic contribution in obesity and insulin resistance by both candidate and global gene

Genetics of Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome: From Genome Wide Linkage Scans and Candidate Genes to Genome Wide Association Studies Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) are major health problems associated with cardiovascular disease. Both diseases are influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. The aim of this thesis was to identify genetic risk factors

Beta-Cell Dysfunction in Huntington´s Disease Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal neurodegenerative disorder, is associated with an increased risk of diabetes mellitus. The reason for this is unknown, but considering the functional similarities of neurons and the insulin secreting pancreatic β-cell, pathological mechanisms may be shared by both cell types and account for neuronal as well as endocri

The Impact of Ethnicity on type 2 Diabetes Type 2 diabetes mellitus is among the fastest growing diseases in the world. The reported prevalence of T2D appears to differ among various ethnic groups. Although ethnic-related differences in lifestyle factors may account for some of the predisposition to diabetes in various ethnic groups, genetic factors may play a more determinant role.High prevalence

Mitochondrial and Chromosomal Genomics in Type 2 Diabetes Understanding the mechanisms of complex polygenic diseases like type 2 diabetes (T2D) is as complex as their nature. Cellular processes involved in glucose homeostasis need high and reliable energy supply. Mitochondria are the major energy producers in mammalian cells. Since majority of the mitochondrial genes are encoded by the nuclear gen

Beta Cell Function: from Human Genetics to Animal Models Beta cell function is an important factor in the development of both Type 1 (T1D) and Type 2 (T2D) diabetes mellitus. T1D is characterized by a primary defect in insulin secretion due to the immune-mediated beta cell destruction, however, the more common T2D beside insulin resistance also include impaired beta cell function as a consequence

Diana Grajales Abellan, student

I am Diana and I am from Spain. I am currently performing my master studies in Biomedicine at Lund University, which I started in September 2015. Before moving to Sweden, I completed my bachelor´s degree in Biochemistry at the University of Valencia and I also went to Norway for one year in an Erasmus exchange. Right now I am performing my master thesis: This project aims to understand the role of
