Popular Abstract in Swedish Graviditetsdiabetes (GD) är en sjukdom utan någon allmänt erkänd definition och vars prognos för kvinnan och hennes foster/barn är omdiskuterad. Därför har det från etisk synpunkt ifrågasatts om man verkligen ska försöka identifiera den.

Since 1991, all pregnant women in Lund are offered a 75g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) at 27 – 28 weeks of pregnancy. In Sweden, the definition o

Regeneration of peripheral nerves: The role of protein phosphorylation

The involvement of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation reactions in peripheral nerve regeneration was studied in frog and adult mouse during in vivo and in vitro conditions. By comparing phosphoprotein patterns in normal and regenerating frog sciatic nerves a regeneration related phosphoprotein (PP90) was found. The kinase acting on PP90 was pharmacologically distinguished from PKC and PKA but sensi
