16. Epigenetics of paediatric glioma stem cells; focusing on exosomes, miRNAs and DNA methylation
Sammanfattning : Tumours in the central nervous system are accountable for the majority of cancer-related deaths in children. Glioblastoma multiforme, one of the deadliest of the central nervous system tumours, is partly driven by glioma stem cells. The generation and maintenance of these cells is orchestrated by complex genetic and epigenetic mechanisms. LÄS MER
17. Auxiliary Cells for the Vascularization and Function of Endogenous and Transplanted Islets of Langerhans
Sammanfattning : Type 1 diabetes develops through the progressive destruction of the insulin-producing beta-cells. Regeneration or replacement of beta-cells is therefore needed to restore normal glucose homeostasis. Presently, normoglycemia can be achieved by the transplantation of whole pancreas or isolated islets of Langerhans. LÄS MER
18. Stem and progenitor cells in brain ad breast malignancies
Sammanfattning : Stem cells have qualities that clearly distinguish them from all other cells. Capabilities like self-renewal, differentiation and migration make them truly powerful. This thesis deals with different aspects of stem/progenitor cells in relation to cancer. LÄS MER
19. Adult Neural Stem Cells-Influence of Stroke, Inflammation and Aging
Sammanfattning : Neural stem cells (NSCs) in the embryo generate neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, the principal cells of the central nervous system (CNS), which contribute to the full diversity of the brain. Some NSCs persist in the adult brain and ensures neurogenesis throughout adult life in the subventricular zone (SVZ) and the subgranular zone (SGZ). LÄS MER
20. Stem cells : proliferation, differentiation, migration
Sammanfattning : A stem cell is demanding and requires precise conditions to carry out its unique tasks. This includes proliferation as an undifferentiated stem cell, differentiation to more mature cell types, migration through tissue to its final destination, and functional integration into the cellular network.
