Palmitate-induced beta-cell dysfunction is associated with excessive NO pro-duction and is reversed by thiazolidinedione-mediated inhibition of GPR40 transduction mechanisms

Background: Type 2 diabetes often displays hyperlipidemia. We examined palmitate effects on pancreatic islet function in relation to FFA receptor GPR40, NO generation, insulin release, and the PPARgama agonistic thiazolidinedione, rosiglitazone. Principal findings: Rosiglitazone suppressed acute palmitate-stimulated GPR40-transduced PI hydrolysis in HEK293 cells and insulin release from MIN6c cell

Konsumtion av bekväma funktioner. Elanvändning i hushåll.

Gemensamt för både direkta och indirekta el-kunder är att de konsumerar en osynlig produkt, energi. Hushållen behöver inte vara intresserade av energi eller dess ursprungskälla, men väl de tjänster som energiföretagen kan bidra till att leverera. Man köper funktionen kall öl, varmt kaffe, rena kläder, ren kopp, lyssna på radio, se på TV, medan energiföretagen säljer den immateriella tjänsten och o

Dual Supply-Voltage Scaling for Reconfigurable SoCs

By partitioning a hardware design into several blocks and adjusting the voltage of the different blocks individually, an overall power consumption reduction is possible. An algorithm and a hardware solution for assigning two supply voltages to a design divided into blocks is presented. The two supply voltages are optimized using an on-chip controller. The on-chip controller assigns one of the two

An On-Demand WebRTC and IoT Device Tunneling Service for Hospitals

In this paper we present the implementation of a WebRTC gateway service that can forward ad-hoc RTP data plane traffic from a browser inside a local hospital network to a browser on a local home network. The gateway leverages the same infrastructure used by the hospital to tunnel sensor and control data for medical devices in home-care deployments. In our use case, doctors at hospitals can only ac

Walking Through The Screen. Digital Media on The Go

How can locomotion be combined with the use of screen based digital devices? This paper deals with the ways that GPS (Global Positioning System) is integrated with the mundane practices of wayfinding and moving on foot. I’ve mainly studied how handheld GPS-devices are used by so called geo-cachers. The paper focus on ideas about cognition, spatial awareness and locomotion, and discuss how complex

Quantum dots-in-a-well infrared photodetectors for long wavelength infrared detection

We report on a quantum dots-in-a-well infrared photodetector (DWELL QDIP) grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. The DWELL QDIP consisted of ten stacked InAs/In0.15Ga0.85As/GaAs QD layers embedded between n-doped contact layers. The density of the QDs was about 9 x 1010 cm-2 per QD layer. The energy level structure of the DWELL was revealed by optical measurements of interband transitions, an
