6. The Effects of SSRI Treatment on Human Placenta and Embryo
Sammanfattning : During pregnancy, 4 - 7% of women suffer from major depressive disorder. When antidepressive treatment is needed, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the most commonly used. Although severe complications from SSRI treatment are rare, association with a number of adverse pregnancy and fetal outcomes has been found. LÄS MER
7. Receptor Upregulation and MAPK Activity in Arteries and Bronchi Following Secondhand Smoke Exposure
Sammanfattning : Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Contractile receptor changes have been observed in several vascular diseases. The intracellular mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways are suggested to be associated with receptor upregulation. LÄS MER
8. Studies of induced transcription in response to an activated Ha-ras, TPA and UV radiation in keratinocytes
Sammanfattning : The mutational activation of the Ha-ras gene in keratinocytes has been shown to occur during the initiation step in the mouse skin model for multistage carcinogenesis. Skin tumor promoters such as 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and ultraviolet radiation (UVR) stimulate a selective outgrowth of initiated keratinocytes to form benign tumours (papillomas).

9. Activating proto-oncogene mutations in human cutaneous melanoma
Sammanfattning : Cutaneous melanoma arises from melanocytes located in the basal layer of the epidermis. The disease is known to progress through well-defined steps: 1) common nevus; 2) dysplastic nevus; 3) radial growth phase (RGP) primary melanoma; 4) vertical growth phase (VGP) primary melanoma; and 5) metastatic melanoma.

10. Fibroblast growth factor-induced signal transduction
Sammanfattning : Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) evoke cellular responses by binding to FGF receptors (FGFRs). FGFRs are cell surface expressed membrane-spanning receptors with intrinsic stimulatable tyrosine kinase activity. This thesis describes the cell proliferation or differentiation. LÄS MER
