1. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation : patients’ and sibling donors’ perspectives
Sammanfattning : Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hereafter HSCT) is an established treatment which offers a potential cure for a variety of diseases, mainly haematological malignancies. However, the treatment is also associated with significant risks of acute complications and late side effects, including mortality. LÄS MER
2. Novel Insights into Haematopoietic Stem Cell Regulation and Function
Sammanfattning : The haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) is a somatic stem cell essential for life long haematopoiesis; HSCs have the capability to differentiate into all mature types of blood cells and can also undergo self-renewal to maintain their own numbers. They also have the potential to reconstitute a complete haematopoietic system following HSC transplantation, also known as bone marrow transplantation, which is used to treat many haematopoietic disorders.

3. Potential Hazards for Haematopoietic Stem Cell Donors
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis has been to increase our knowledge about the allogeneic stem cell donation procedure and the associated risks for stem cell donors. In a first study (paper I), we described the donation procedure and short-term side effects of 1957 donors included in the Nordic Register of Haematopoietic Stem Cell Donors. LÄS MER
4. Stem Cell Transplantation in Dorsal Root Injury
Sammanfattning : After traumatic injuries to the brachial plexus there is a risk that one or more of the spinal roots are torn from the spinal cord, known as avulsion injury. This often leads to paralysis and chronic pain, notoriously difficult to treat with current pharmacotherapy. LÄS MER
