1. Protein expression and modifications in denervated atrophic and hypertrophic skeletal muscle
Sammanfattning : Skeletal muscle comprises about 45% of the total body weight. It is the largest tissue in the body, vital for maintaining posture, produce locomotion, breathing but also functions as a large reservoir of proteins. LÄS MER
2. Modulation of PDGF receptors function by posttranslational modifications
Sammanfattning : The platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs) play important roles in multiple cellular processes including cell survival, cell growth and cell migration. Dysregulation of PDGFRs causes aberrant PDGF signaling, which leads to various diseases. LÄS MER
3. Lysosomal network proteins as biomarkers and therapeutic targets in neurodegenerative disease
Sammanfattning : The pre-symptomatic stage of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) occurs several decades before the clinical onset. Changes in the lysosomal network, i.e. the autophagosomal, endosomal and lysosomal vesicular system, are among the first alterations observed. LÄS MER
4. The role of autophagy in anticancer therapy
Sammanfattning : Autophagy is a fundamental catabolic process, which is utilized by nearly every cell and tissue type upon stress exposure and has been shown to contribute to resistance to chemotherapy in a variety of cancers. The subject of this thesis is to shed light on the role of autophagy in chemotherapy and to investigate novel regulators of autophagy. LÄS MER
5. Autophagy in Peripheral Neuropathy
Sammanfattning : Peripheral neuropathy includes a wide range of diseases affecting millions around the world, and many of these diseases have unknown etiology. Peripheral neuropathy in diabetes represents a large proportion of peripheral neuropathies. Nerve damage can also be caused by trauma. LÄS MER
