1. The Histidine-rich Glycoprotein in Reproduction
Sammanfattning : Infertility affects 15% of reproductive-aged couples. The milieu surrounding the growing embryo is of outmost importance, and should be optimised during in vitro fertilisation (IVF). Many biological processes, such as angiogenesis, coagulation, and immune processes need to be well regulated for a pregnancy to occur and progress normally. LÄS MER
2. ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITIES OF HISTIDINE-RICH GLYCOPROTEIN AND CATIONIC PEPTIDES
Sammanfattning : In an environment full of potential pathogens it is of importance for organisms to mount a fast and effective defence. Antimicrobial peptides are ancient and integral effector molecules of the innate immune system. They are found in all kinds of species from bacteria to plants and animals, indicating their importance during evolution. LÄS MER
3. The Role of Histidine-rich Glycoprotein in Angiogenesis and Tumor Growth
Sammanfattning : Histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) is a heparin-binding plasma protein modulating immune, hemostatic and vascular functions. I have studied the antiangiogenic functions of HRG in vitro and in vivo in order to understand the molecular mechanisms of action of HRG as an angiogenesis inhibitor. LÄS MER
4. Molecular Mechanisms of Action of Histidine-rich Glycoprotein in Angiogenesis Inhibition
Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis, de novo synthesis of blood vessels from the pre-existing vasculature, is required both during embryonic development and in pathophysiological conditions. In particular, tumor growth needs new capillary vessels in order to both deliver oxygen and nutrients and to remove toxin and metabolites. LÄS MER
5. Investigating histidine-rich glycoprotein and T cell-specific adaptor as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets
Sammanfattning : The endothelial cell (EC), the most important cell type in blood vessels, lines the vessel wall and provides vessel integrity. EC function is tightly regulated, and its dysregulation is a key element in many diseases including cardiovascular disease, cancer and several diseases of the eye. LÄS MER
