1. Cellular remodeling in response to nutrient exhaustion : From membrane contact sites to autophagy
Sammanfattning : Adaptation to fluctuating environments is critical for cellular fitness and survival. Cells need to sense changes in their surroundings and quickly adjust cellular homeostasis and metabolism accordingly. LÄS MER
2. A molecular chaperone that governs membrane contact sites and lipid metabolism
Sammanfattning : Transmembrane proteins represent almost one third of the total cellular proteome, and the majority of them requires translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to be folded, sorted and transported to their final subcellular destination. High translational rates during exponential cell growth result in a massive influx of immature proteins into the ER, requiring rapid and accurate folding. LÄS MER
3. Phosphoinositides control insulin secretion through multiple routes
Sammanfattning : Glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells is the sequence of events that starts with glucose uptake and ends with the fusion of insulin granules with the plasma membrane through Ca2+-triggered exocytosis. Phosphoinositides are minor components of all cellular membranes, yet play fundamental roles as regulators of many cellular processes. LÄS MER
4. Membrane lipids and their transfer proteins in β-cells
Sammanfattning : Insulin secretion from β-cells is essential for glucose homeostasis and is often dysregulated in diabetes. Intracellular Ca2+ and membrane lipids cooperate to control insulin secretion with high spatial and temporal precision. LÄS MER
5. On guided bone reformation in the maxillary sinus to enable placement and integration of endosseous implants. Clinical and experimental studies
Sammanfattning : Dental caries and periodontal disease are the major causes for tooth loss. While dental caries commonly involve the posterior teeth in both jaws, the teeth most commonly lost due to periodontal problems are the first and second molars in the maxilla. As a consequence, the upper posterior jaw is frequently edentulous. LÄS MER
