1. Molecular mechanisms of alternative estrogen receptor signaling
Sammanfattning : Estrogen is a key regulator of growth, differentiation and function in a broad range of target tissues, including the male and female reproductive tracts, mammary gland, bone, brain and the cardiovascular system. The biological effects of estrogen are mediated through estrogen receptor a (ERalpha) and estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta), which belong to a large superfamily of nuclear receptors that act as ligand-activated transcription factors.

2. Towards the enhanced applicability of cold mix asphalt: : An experimental study focusing on surface free energies and the breaking and coalescence of bitumen emulsions
Sammanfattning : The environmental, social and economic sustainability of our infrastructure network is clearly of paramount importance to the road-engineering sector as well to society at large. Sustainable road materials and reduced transport of those materials therefore play a significant role. LÄS MER
3. New insight into myocardin regulation and function in smooth muscle cells
Sammanfattning : Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are constituents of hollow inner organs. Their contractile function governs essential physiological functions, such as breathing, eating, blood pressure control, urination, and childbirth. LÄS MER
4. Expression of thioredoxin reductase 1 in mammalian cells with regulation by the core promoter and use of alternative splice variants
Sammanfattning : Reactive oxygen species are generated in cells as by-products of aerobic metabolism. To protect from damaging effects the cells possess several antioxidant systems and one of the most important is the thioredoxin system. LÄS MER
5. The estrogen receptor gene : promoter organization and expression
Sammanfattning : The estrogen receptor (ER) is a ligand-activated transcription factor and a member of a large family of nuclear hormone receptors. As a mediator of estrogen hormone action, the ER is involved in many important physiological processes. ER gene expression has been demonstrated to be restricted to certain tissues and under complex hormonal control. LÄS MER
