1. Human intestinal T lymphocytes : a comparative analysis of phenotype and function in normal and inflamed mucosa
Sammanfattning : The epithelial lining of the gut must allow immediate contact with beneficial components as nutrients and normal microflora. At the same time it runs the constant risk of attack from pathogenic microbes and noxious agents. LÄS MER
2. Basal lamina genes affected in leiomyomatosis and congenital muscular dystrophy : structure and mutation analyses of the collagen COL4A6 and laminin LAMA2 genes
Sammanfattning : Basal laminae (basement membranes) are flexible thin sheets of specialized extracellular matrix separating organ cells from the underlying or surrounding connective tissues. They are found beneath epithelial and endothelial cells amd surrounding different cells, such as muscle fibers and nerves. LÄS MER
3. Interactions between neural retina, retinal epithelium and choroid
Sammanfattning : The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a non-replicating monolayer that plays a key role nursing the photoreceptors of the neural retina, regulating fluid movement within the subretinal space, maintaining a basal laminar layer of Bruch s membrane, and influencing the choriocapillaris. This project investigates how surgical manipulation of the retinal epithelial layer influences the neural retina, the choroid and the epithelial layer itself. LÄS MER
4. Morphology and biochemistry of the tympanic membrane in relation to retraction pathology
Sammanfattning : Otitis media is very common during childhood and may predispose for tympanic membrane (TM) pathology later in life. Therefore, it is important to investigate the possible changes in TMs subjected to otitis media. There is evidence of a relationship between previous otitis media and TM retraction disease. LÄS MER
5. Cell Contacts and Airway Epithelial Damage in Asthma
Sammanfattning : Airway epithelial damage is commonly found in asthma patients. Epithelial damage was investigated with special reference to contacts between epithelial cells.Eosinophils, common in allergic asthma, secrete cationic proteins, particularly major basic protein (MBP). LÄS MER
