11. Neuropeptides, 'gaseous' messengers and classic transmitters : electrophysiological and histochemical studies on coexistence and interactions in the nervous system
Sammanfattning : The distribution and functional role of neuropeptides were studied, with special reference to galanin (GAL) and the free radical nitric oxide (NO). In developing systems GAL expression was observed already at E14 in trigeminal and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and at E15 in sensory epithelia in ear, eye and nose, as well as at E19 during bone formation.

12. Magnetic resonance imaging and advanced imaging assessment of the growth plate in the adolescent and young adult
Sammanfattning : The growth plate is a cartilaginous structure located between the metaphysis and epiphysis in long bones. It is the centre for longitudinal growth. Longitudinal growth has a biphasic pattern with a peak during foetal and early postnatal life and another peak during puberty. LÄS MER
13. MRI based radiotherapy planning and pulse sequence optimization
Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy plays an increasingly important role in cancer treatment, and medical imaging plays an increasingly important role in radiotherapy. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is poised to be a major component in the development towards more effective radiotherapy treatments with fewer side effects. LÄS MER
14. Multilayer Structures for Biomaterial Applications : Biomacromolecule-based Coatings
Sammanfattning : The cellular response to a biomaterial, such as a dental implant, is mainly governed by the surface properties, and can thus be altered by the introduction of a surface coating. In this thesis the buildup of a biomacromolecule-based coating formed by layerby-layer (LbL) deposition of the charged polypeptides poly(L-lysine) (PLL) and poly(L-glutamic acid) (PGA) has been studied.

15. Mesoporous Implants for Localized Controlled Drug Delivery
Sammanfattning : The use of bone-anchored implants is today a routine treatment for patients with normal regenerative capacity. However, there is an ongoing development within implant research to improve the osseointegration of implants. LÄS MER
