1. Phospholipase C β3, and its role in endocrine tumorigenesis
Sammanfattning : The Phospholipase C β3 (PLCB3) gene is located on chromosome 11q13, in the vicinity of theMultiple Endocrine Neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) suppressor gene. PLCB3 has been implicated inendocrine tumorigenesis based on findings of low expression in endocrine tumors, and the probableexistence of other suppressor genes located at 11q13. LÄS MER
2. Role of inositol pyrophosphates in pancreatic beta cell function
Sammanfattning : Inositol pyrophosphates are high energy diphosphate containing molecules that are ubiquitous in eukaryotic cells. They have been implicated in diverse cellular processes ranging from DNA repair, telomere length regulation, ribosome synthesis, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis to osmoregulation, phosphate homeostasis, insulin sensitivity, vesicle trafficking, cytoskeletal rearrangement and exocytosis.

3. Temporal monitoring of intracellular Ca2+ signaling and origins of Ca2+ oscillations
Sammanfattning : This thesis examined parameters influencing stimulated cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) oscillations in hepatocytes and pancreatic beta-cells. Hepatic glucose output is regulated in part by hormones such as vasopressin that act through [Ca 2+]i oscillations. LÄS MER
4. Isolation and characterization of genes within the region for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 on chromosome 11q13
Sammanfattning : This thesis summarizes the investigations of three genes isolated from the locus for multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) within the chromosomal region 11q13. As a common strategy for all three genes, the cDNA was sequenced, the genomic structure characterized, and the expression pattern analyzed by Northern blotting on human tissues and by in situ RNA hybridization on slides from rodent embryos.

5. Apolipoprotein E and Alzheimer's diseases : signals and effects
Sammanfattning : Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most frequent cause of dementia in the elderly. A diagnosis of AD is confirmed post-mortem by the accumulation of neuritic plaques (NP) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) in brain tissue. LÄS MER
