6. Chromosome-specific adaptations of RNA stability and the roles of the roX RNAs in dosage compensation
Sammanfattning : Sex chromosomes evolved from an ancient pair of autosomes and the Y chromosome lost most of its genetic information in the process. This created two kinds of genomic imbalances: the first one between males (XY) and females (XX) and the second one between the sex chromosomes and the autosomes (X:AA). LÄS MER
7. Principles of transcriptional bursting in mammalian cells
Sammanfattning : In mammalian cells, transcription occurs in discrete bursts leading to fluctuations in transcripts from expressed genes. Although this behavior was first reported not long after the discovery of messenger RNA (mRNA), the methods to measure transcriptional bursting have been limited in throughput and scalability.

8. Laminins in stemness and germ cell development in human
Sammanfattning : Stem cell niches regulate the fine balance between self-renewal and differentiation of various stem cells. Although crucial hallmarks of stem cell niches, such as the mechanical signalling, neural inputs communicating distant cues, the proximity to blood vessels and the structural support by the surrounding basement membrane (BM), have been evaluated in different niches, little much attention has been directed to the specific composition of the BM.

9. Exploring mammalian preimplantation development and pluripotency
Sammanfattning : Our current understanding of how stem cells arise and transition during embryonic development has been limited by analysis tools that have lacked single-cell, whole-genome resolution. This thesis emphasizes the use of novel techniques and cutting-edge technology to better evaluate the biological underpinning of stem cell dynamics in both mouse and human. LÄS MER
10. Bleeding tendency and health-related quality of life in carriers of haemophilia
Sammanfattning : Haemophilia A and B are X-linked disorders caused by impaired synthesis of coagulation factors VIII and IX, respectively. Women who carry the haemophilia trait have about 50 % of normal factor levels. LÄS MER
