11. Fetal Outcome in Experimental Diabetic Pregnancy
Sammanfattning : Women with pregestational diabetes have a 2-5 fold increased risk of giving birth to malformed babies compared with non-diabetic women. Diabetes-induced oxidative stress in maternal and embryonic tissues has been implicated in the teratogenic process. LÄS MER
12. Apoptosis Regulation via the Mitochondrial Pathway : Membrane Response upon Apoptotic Stimuli
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was the investigation of the mitochondrial response mechanisms upon apoptotic stimuli. The specific objectives were the biophysical characterization of membrane dynamics and the specific roles of lipids in the context of apoptotic regulation occurring at the mitochondrion and its complex membrane systems.

13. Indicators of apoptosis and proliferation in haematological malignancies : with special reference to drug resistance and prognosis
Sammanfattning : Successful treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and high-grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (HG- NHL) is hampered by development of drug resistance. A better understanding of mechanisms responsible for drug resistance and the identification of factors that predict response to therapy is essential to improve treatment. LÄS MER
14. Studies on the Role of Apoptosis in Kidney Diseases
Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is one of the most common types of cell death. Under physiological conditions, it plays an essential role in removal of damaged and potentially harmful cells. Excessive apoptosis has however been linked to a number of diseases including proteinuric kidney disease and DKD, and is believed to enhance the disease progression. LÄS MER
15. Effects of chemotherapy on bone growth and chondrocyte cell death signaling
Sammanfattning : Glucocorticoids (GCs) are widely used in both children and adults to treat common inflammatory diseases, including asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease. However, a multitude of undesired side effects have been reported in patients being treated with GCs, such as osteoporosis, obesity, metabolic disturbances, myopathy and decreased linear bone growth (in children).
