1. Modeling normal and malignant hematopoiesis in vitro. To screen for extrinsic regulators and differentiation therapy
Sammanfattning : The incredible thing with blood stem cells, also known as hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), is that they can restore normal hematopoiesis in patients that need a new blood system. Since a prerequisite for successful transplantation is immune compatibility, it requires large donor registries to find a suitable match for a recipient. LÄS MER

Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
3. A Path for Improving Stroke Recovery. Effects of MEK-ERK1/2 Inhibition
Sammanfattning : The present thesis aimed to shed more light on the notion of acute inhibition of extracellular-signal regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 pathway as a treatment to improve stroke recovery. Stroke is a major cause of death and long-term disability worldwide, classified as ischemic or hemorrhagic. LÄS MER
4. Intracellular pathways involved in formation and degradation of prions
Sammanfattning : Prions cause invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases, in which a misfolded host-encoded protein appears to be the main, if not the only, component of the infectious agent. During disease, a normal cellular protein, PrPC, is converted to a disease-related isoform, PrPSc, by a post-translational process that might require auxiliary cellular cofactors. LÄS MER
5. Ras-MAPK signaling in differentiating SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells
Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is a malignant childhood cancer, originating from sympathetic neuroblasts of the peripheral nervous system. Neuroblastoma is a heterogenous group of tumours, while some are highly malignant others can spontaneosly mature into a more benign form or regress. LÄS MER
