21. Adiponectin, the metabolic syndrome and atherosclerosis. Observation and intervention studies
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
22. Non-invasive ultrasound-based cardiovascular imaging in mouse models of atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a chronic multi-factorial vascular disease. It generally requires large clinical settings and over many years to study the disease progression in man. Genetically modified mouse models of atherosclerosis have dramatically increased research feasibility within this area. LÄS MER
23. A role of CD44 in atherosclerosis? Studies in mice and humans
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease that can lead to clinical complications such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Expressed in both vascular and inflammatory cells, adhesion molecule CD44 can be cleaved from the cell surface, and soluble CD44 can be detected in blood. LÄS MER
24. Zebrafish models for large-scale genetic screens in dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis : Validation and application
Sammanfattning : Hundreds of loci have been robustly associated with circulating lipids, atherosclerosis and coronary artery disease; but for most loci the causal genes and mechanisms remain uncharacterized. The overall aim of my thesis is to develop and validate novel in vivo model systems that are suitable for high-throughput, image-based genetic screens in coronary artery disease and related traits, and use these model systems to systematically characterize positional candidate genes.

25. Ultrasound evaluation of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular sources of cerebral embolism
Sammanfattning : The search for embolic sources has high priority in patients presenting with suspected cerebral embolism. Non-invasive cardiovascular ultrasound is frequently used to reveal the presence of carotid stenosis and cardiac disorders with embolic potential. LÄS MER
