1. p38 MAPK Signalling in Endothelial Apoptosis
Sammanfattning : Endothelial apoptosis plays an important role in atherosclerosis, and a direct proapoptotic effect of chemotherapeutics on the tumour vasculature, emphasizes the great potency of antiangiogenic therapy in the treatment of cancer. We investigated signalling pathways in endothelial apoptosis induced by the inflammatory cytokine tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF), the main target of which is the endothelium, and by the anticancer drug doxorubicin.

2. Molecular Studies of Mast Cell Migration and Apoptosis : Two Ways of Regulating Mast Cell Numbers at Sites of Inflammation
Sammanfattning : Upon activation mast cells release numerous proinflammatory mediators. With this feature, mast cells play an important role in host defense against pathogens, and are involved in tissue remodeling and wound healing. However, in cases of excessive inflammation the effects of mast cells are detrimental. LÄS MER
3. 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
4. Understanding the response to EGFR targeting therapy in non-small-cell lung cancer using -omics approach
Sammanfattning : NSCLC is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. EGFR targeted therapy is used to inhibit the progress of NSCLC, but patients inevitably develop resistance to EGFRTKIs. LÄS MER
5. Nephroprotective effect of the cardiotonic steroid ouabain
Sammanfattning : It has been shown that Na,K-ATPase (NKA) is a signal transducer. Our group described the anti-apoptotic effect of ouabain to the signaling function of NKA. LÄS MER
