Sammanfattning : Biological complications affecting osseointegrated dental implants are a growing treatment problem in clinical practice. Since the number of implant carriers has increased in recent decades, this is an urgent topic in dentistry. LÄS MER
2. Identifying and targeting vulnerabilities in cancers that metastasize to the bone and bone marrow
Sammanfattning : Evolving technologies enable scientist to ask and seek answers to advanced questions, above and beyond. During the past decade single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has revolutionized our understanding of biology, in particular within cancer research. LÄS MER
3. Vitamin A and Bone: Studies in vivo and in vitro
Sammanfattning : Background: Excess vitamin A is associated with decreased cortical bone and increased risk of fractures in humans. The aim of the present thesis was to assess the importance of vitamin A on the skeleton and bone cells in in vivo animal studies and mechanistic in vitro experiments. LÄS MER
4. Functional aspects of prothrombin in bone
Sammanfattning : Prothrombin (PT) is the inactive zymogen to the serine protease alpha-thrombin which in the coagulation cascade is responsible for clot formation through converting fibrinogen to fibrin. PT has been shown to be present in calcified bone matrix, and alpha-thrombin has been implicated in various bone resorbing disorders of inflammatory origin, such as rheumatoid arthritis and periodontitis.
