16. Motor control in zebrafish : excitatory drive and developmental changes
Sammanfattning : An essential characteristic of human and animal life is the ability to move from one place to another, in order to survive in a complex environment. All the different forms of locomotion, like walking, swimming, crawling and flying, have one common feature: rhythmic and alternating movements of the body. LÄS MER
17. Mechanisms of malignant and non-malignant angiogenesis using zebrafish models
Sammanfattning : Pathological angiogenesis significantly contribute to the onset, development and progression of most common and severe human diseases including cancer, metastatic disease, cardiovascular disease, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity. Under these pathological conditions, tissue hypoxia often acts as a trigger to switch on angiogenesis. LÄS MER
18. Investigating mechanisms of angiogenesis in health and disease using zebrafish models
Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis, the growth of blood vessels from an existing vasculature, can occur by sprouting from preexisting vessels or by vessel splitting (intussusception). Pathological angiogenesis drives choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age related macular degeneration (AMD) which is commonly restricted under the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), called occult CNV, but may also involve vessels penetrating through the RPE into the sub-retinal space.

19. Effects of ozonated sewage effluents and pharmaceuticals in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
Sammanfattning : The aquatic environment is the main destination for many organic pollutants originating from human activity. Pharmaceuticals are significant contributors to this pollutant cocktail. LÄS MER
20. Multiple circuits controlling the versatility of locomotion : molecular and connectivity principles in zebrafish
Sammanfattning : Locomotion is produced by neuronal circuits in the spinal cord. These motor circuits rely on the activation of supraspinal centres and transform descending excitatory drive into coordinated rhythmic activity. LÄS MER
