1. Tolerance and injury mechanisms in the developing CNS
Sammanfattning : The pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the development of hypoxic-ischemic (HI) brain injury has been the subject of extensive research yet a neuroprotective strategy to limit its progression is lacking.OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present thesis was to obtain a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in neonatal HI, specifically to study I) the involvement of Poly ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 in HI, II) the effect of hypoxic PC on brain injury and function after HI in the long-term perspective, III) the effect of hypoxic PC on global gene expression, in particular the involvement of apoptosis related genes, and IV) the vascular response to hypoxic PC.

2. Protective Responses to Freediving Reveal High-Altitude Tolerance
Sammanfattning : High-altitude mountaineers - just as freedivers - are exposed to hypoxia. During freediving, the diving response leads to reduced oxygen consumption, and splenic contraction increases circulating hemoglobin concentration (Hb), which enhances freediving performance. LÄS MER
3. Roles of Heparan Sulfate in Amyloid-β Pathology and Hypoxia
Sammanfattning : Heparan sulfate (HS) is a highly sulfated polysaccharide expressed on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix, interacting with a large number of proteins. HS is implicated in human diseases, including different types of cancer and amyloid diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). LÄS MER
4. Molecular and Metabolic Aspects of Plant and Bacterial Salt Tolerance
Sammanfattning : Salt stress is one of the historically as well as potentially largest agriculture problem humans have faced. Researchers have investigated and tried to solve this problem for a long time. Over 20 reviews have been written on this topic the last five years. LÄS MER
5. Genetically Engineered Plants: Improved stress tolerance, growth and facilitated protein purification
Sammanfattning : Heterologous genes were expressed in plants in which the overall goal was to increase the value of the final crop. Various aspects were explored and evaluated, such as improving the stress tolerance, enhancing the availability of oxygen in growing cells and producing rare proteins with increased degrees of purity.
