16. Genetic subtypes in unicellular intestinal parasites with special focus on Blastocystis
Sammanfattning : The development of molecular tools for detection and typing of unicellular intestinal parasites has revealed genetic diversities in species that were previously considered as distinct entities. Of great importance is the genetic distinction found between the pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica and the non-pathogenic Entamoeba dispar, two morphologically indistinguishable species. LÄS MER
17. Characterization of Retinal Progenitor Cells : Focus on Proliferation and the GABAA Receptor System
Sammanfattning : One strategy to repair an injured or degenerated retina is to stimulate the replacement of damaged or dead neurons with cells derived from endogenous stem- or progenitor cells. A successful strategy requires knowledge about how the proliferation and differentiation of the endogenous cells are regulated. LÄS MER
18. Levodopa pharmacokinetics -from stomach to brain : A study on patients with Parkinson’s disease
Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders and it is caused by a loss of dopamine (DA) producing neurons in the basal ganglia in the brain. The PD patient suffers from motor symptoms such as tremor, bradykinesia and rigidity and treatment with levodopa (LD), the precursor of DA, has positive effects on these symptoms. LÄS MER
19. Superabsorbent Polymers from the Cell Wall of Zygomycetes Fungi
Sammanfattning : The present thesis presents new renewable, antimicrobial and biodegradable superabsorbent polymers (SAPs), produced from the cell wall of zygomycetes fungi. The cell wall was characterized and chitosan, being one of the most important ingredients, was extracted, purified, and converted to SAP for use in disposable personal care products designed for absorption of different body fluids.

20. Molecular Characterisation and Prognostic Biomarker Discovery in Human Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Sammanfattning : Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) constitutes a clinically, histologically, and genetically heterogeneous disease entity that represents a major cause of cancer-related death. Early-stage patients, who undergo surgery with curative intent, experience high recurrence rates and the effect of adjuvant treatment is modest. LÄS MER
