1. Bone and Cartilage Regeneration: Wnt Signaling Pathway in Healing
Sammanfattning : The Wnt signaling pathway plays a central role in bone and cartilage embryonic development, processes that are recapitulated during regeneration. Imbalance in such well conserved and complex system often contributes to numerous diseases, whereas controlled modulation of the Wnt signaling activity is an attractive target e.g. LÄS MER
2. Analysis of signaling pathway activity in single cells using the in situ Proximity Ligation Assay
Sammanfattning : A cell that senses signals from its environment uses proteins for signal transduction via post translational modifications (PTMs) and protein- protein interactions (PPIs) from cell membrane into the nucleus where genes controlling cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis can be turned on or off, i.e. LÄS MER
3. Role of Wnt-5a in breast cancer
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is one of the most common cancer forms in the industrialized world. Only in Sweden, nearly 6000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer each year and 1/3 of them eventually succumb to the disease. LÄS MER
4. The Wnt pathway in ventral midbrain dopaminergic differentiation
Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease in which dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra are lost. Current treatments such as administration of levodopa (L-DOPA) are initially effective but the disease eventually progresses, highlighting the need for a treatment that restores and maintains the otherwise lost functions. LÄS MER
5. Molecular characterization of FOX factors and Wnt signalling interplay in human cancers
Sammanfattning : Wnt/β-catenin signalling, also referred to as canonical Wnt signalling, is a critical regulator of tissue homeostasis and of the differentiation of cells during development. The outcome of canonical Wnt pathway activity is defined by the regulation of target gene transcription, which ultimately determines cell identity and proliferation. LÄS MER
