  1. 1. The role of polysaccharide modifications during Drosophila development

    Författare :Florian Lüders; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ontogeni; growth animal ; embryologi; Development biology; Decapentaplegic; Hedgehog; Wingless; Sulfation; Pipe; Glycosaminoglycan; Glycosyltransferase; ontogeny; embryology; Utvecklingsbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Glucosides attached to proteins and lipids have been shown to modulate the activity of signal transduction pathways regulating growth and patterning processes during animal development. In particular, O-linked glycans such as glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have been implicated in modulation of growth factor signaling pathways. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Functions of Transcriptional Co-regulators in Drosophila development

    Författare :Tobias Lilja; Mattias Mannervik; Ze'ev Paroush; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transcription; Co-regulator; Development; Drosophila; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology; miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : During Drosophila development, regulation of gene expression through interplay between transcriptional activators and repressors is generating complex patterns of gene expression that leads to cell differentiation. For proper control of transcription, transcription factors bind to DNA at control regions, so called Cis Regulatory Modules (CRM). LÄS MER

  3. 3. Genetic dissection of tubulogenesis in the Drosophila trachea

    Författare :Johanna Hemphälä; Christos Samakovlis; Reinhard Schuh; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drosophila; trachea; transposon mutagenesis screen; fusion; Dpp; Delta; tubular dimensions; Grainyhead; Krotzkopf verkehrt; intralumenal matrix; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The formation of branched tubular organs, such as the mammalian lung kidney and vascular system, is an essential process in animal development. The Drosophila tracheal (respiratory) system provides a genetic model system to study the highly ordered process of branch outgrowth and fusion required to form continuous tubular networks. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The role of smooth muscle cells in calcification of atherosclerotic plaques

    Författare :Till Seime; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Calcification (CALC) is a predominant feature of late-stage cardiovascular disease (CVD) but responsible mechanisms and its contribution to the risk of clinical events remain unclear. Formation of highly mineralized extracellular matrix (ECM) leads to progressive aortic valve stenosis (AVS) and has been identified as a surrogate marker for atherosclerotic disease burden. LÄS MER
