1. Shb and Its Homologues: Signaling in T Lymphocytes and Fibroblasts
Sammanfattning : Stimulation of the T cell receptor (TCR) induces tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous intracellular proteins, leading to activation of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) gene in T lymphocytes. Shb is a ubiquitously expressed adapter protein, with the ability to associate with the T cell receptor and several signaling proteins in T cells, including: the TCR ζ-chain, LAT, PLC-γ1, Vav, SLP-76 and Gads.

2. Mechanisms involved in macrophage phagocytosis of apoptotic cells
Sammanfattning : Efficient removal of apoptotic cells is critical for development, tissue remodelling, maintenance of homeostasis, and response to injury. Phagocytosis of apoptotic cells is mediated by many phagocytic receptors, soluble bridging molecules, and pro-phagocytic ligands on the surface of apoptotic cells. LÄS MER
3. On the Role of Polyamines in Apoptosis
Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a kind of death that is best described as cellular suicide and it is important for normal tissue homeostasis. The process can be induced by a number of different stimuli and the dying cell goes through a defined pathway terminating in typical biochemical and morphological alterations of the cell. LÄS MER
4. Apoptosis induced by a human milk protein complex. Cellular and structural studies in tumour cells and bacteria
Sammanfattning : Human milk contains a vast array of bioactive molecules, with nutritional and protective functions. This thesis describes the effects of a human milk protein complex, MAL, on tumour cells and bacteria. During our studies on the anti-adhesive properties of human milk we observed that a milk fraction killed tumour cells. LÄS MER
5. Expression and regulation of Rad51 in human cells
Sammanfattning : Double strand breaks (DSBs) can be caused by exogenous DNA damaging agents or by endogenous processes, and may lead to chromosomal breakage and rearrangement resulting in apoptosis or tumorigenesis. The repair of DSBs in higher eukaryotes is to a large extent accomplished by homologous recombination (HR), a process in which DNA from a complementary strand is used as a template for repair synthesis.
