  1. 21. Experimental studies of corneal neovascularisation

    Författare :Branka Samolov; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The cornea contains no vessels, which is a prerequisite for the maintenance of its transparency. Vessel ingrowth leads to opacification resulting in visual impairment, sometimes complete blindness. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Angiogenesis from a new perspective

    Författare :Beatrice Bourghardt Peebo; Neil Lagali; Per Fagerholm; Anders Behndig; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is the emergence of new blood and lymph vessels from existing ones. In the pathologic form it contributes to the onset and progression of numerous different human disorders such as cancer, inflammation, atherosclerosis and blinding eye diseases. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Resonator sensor technique for medical use : an intraocular pressure measurement system

    Författare :Anders Eklund; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensor; Vibration; Hardness; Prostate; intraocular pressure; resonator; eye; applanation; glaucoma;

    Sammanfattning : In the work of this doctoral dissertation a new resonator sensor technique, first presented in 1989, has been further developed and evaluated with focus on technical characteristics and applications within the medical field. In a first part a catheter-type tactile sensor using the resonator sensor technique was evaluated in a silicone model and applied to human prostate in vitro. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Endothelial : mural cell interplay in regulation of blood- and lymph vessel development and function

    Författare :Yixin Wang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Blood- and lymphatic vascular development and homeostasis depend on correct endothelial- mural cell interaction, and dysregulation thereof is apparent in multiple human diseases. However the mechanisms controlling the formation of these respective vascular systems are not fully understood. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Corneal stromal cell responses to traumatic wounds and topical treatments

    Författare :Marina Kulikovska; Per Fagerholm; Neil Lagali; Anders Behndig; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Background. The cornea has unique anatomic, cellular, molecular, and functional features that lead to important mechanistic differences in the process of repair in comparison with what occurs in skin and other organs. The first observable stromal response in corneal wound healing is keratocyte apoptosis. LÄS MER
