11. Reversal of thyroid dedifferentiation and an invasive phenotype by small molecule kinase inhibitors: an experimental study on normal and malignant cells
Sammanfattning : Refractoriness to I-131 in dedifferentiated thyroid cancer is a great concern that restricts radioiodine therapy. There is also a lack of knowledge in understanding the mechanisms leading to repressed sodium iodide symporter (NIS) expression and impaired iodide uptake in tumor cells. LÄS MER
12. Molecular Studies of Mast Cell Migration and Apoptosis : Two Ways of Regulating Mast Cell Numbers at Sites of Inflammation
Sammanfattning : Upon activation mast cells release numerous proinflammatory mediators. With this feature, mast cells play an important role in host defense against pathogens, and are involved in tissue remodeling and wound healing. However, in cases of excessive inflammation the effects of mast cells are detrimental. LÄS MER
13. Vascular and metabolic effects of selective PDE-5 inhibition - clinical and experimental studies

14. Mechanisms of modulation of PDGFRβ signaling
Sammanfattning : Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF) constitute a family of five functional dimers that bind to two structurally related tyrosine kinase receptors i.e. PDGF receptor α and β (PDGFRα and PDGFRβ, respectively), controlling cell growth, proliferation, and migration in cells of mesenchymal origin.

15. Protein interactions in signaling networks in Arabidopsis
Sammanfattning : Protein networks drive numerous crucial processes in cells. One important component in their coordination is protein-protein interactions. Mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling substrates and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins in Arabidopsis were investigated with respect to their respective interactions. LÄS MER
