21. Calcium calmodulin-dependent protein kinase signal transduction in cerebral arteries
Sammanfattning : Cerebral arteries participate actively in the response that follows an episode of cerebral ischemia in man and rat. It has been shown that the vascular endothelin receptor expression is increased in stroke and organ culture. LÄS MER
22. A study of the cytoplasmic domains of C-CAM isoforms : calmodulin binding and phosphorylation
Sammanfattning : C-CAM, a member of the Immunoglobulin Superfamily, was originally identified as an intercellular adhesion molecule, and can mediate cell-cell adhesion by homophilic binding. However, it also appears in high concentrations in luminal, microvillar surfaces. LÄS MER
23. Regulation of Aquaporins by Proteins, Metal ions and Phosphate groups
Sammanfattning : Aquaporins (AQPs) are membrane-bound intrinsic water channels that allow the passive diffusion of water and small solutes across cellular membranes. There are 13 highly conserved isoforms of these channels in human, which differ in specificity, regulation and localisation in cells and tissues. LÄS MER
24. Transducer properties of a mechanoreceptor : an electrophysiological and pharmacological study of the crayfish stretch receptor
Sammanfattning : The abdominal stretch receptor organ of the crayfish, an analog to the human muscle spindle, contains one slowly adapting (SA) and one rapidly adapting (RA) receptor neuron. The general aims of this project were to elucidate, in the SA and RA neurons, the participation of voltagegated Na+ and K+ channels in overall transducer process and adaptation, and to study possible blocking agents specific to mechanosensitive (MS) channels.

25. New insights in parathyroid hormone secretion : with focus on exocytosis and calcium signaling
Sammanfattning : The parathyroid is distinguished from other endocrine systems since its primary stimuli inhibit hormone secretion. It is generally considered that extracellular Ca2+ binds to a membrane receptor (calcium sensing receptor, or CaSR), and via second messengers modulate parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion. LÄS MER
