16. Biological interface of bone graft substitute materials : experimental studies on interactions between biomaterials and bone cells
Sammanfattning : Bone graft substitute materials are becoming more common as alternative therapy strategies when bone defects in patients need to be treated. The interaction between bone cells and biomaterials occur at the surface of the materials. A great deal is known about the importance of surface topography and physic-chemical properties of biomaterials. LÄS MER
17. Uncemented Total Hip Arthroplasty : Aspects on Bone Biology, Implant Fixation, Periprosthetic Bone Remodeling, Bone Mineral Density and Effects of Denosumab
Sammanfattning : Uncemented total hip arthroplasty (THA) is associated with loss of periprosthetic bone mineral density (BMD). The collum femoris preserving (CFP) stem lost 28% of proximal BMD at 2 years. LÄS MER
18. Role of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase in bone remodeling
Sammanfattning : Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase is a metalloenzyme that exists as two isoforms: the monomeric TRAP 5a and the proteolytically cleaved TRAP 5b, responsible for phosphatase activity, which is highly expressed in osteoclasts (OCs). TRAP 5b has been used as a serum marker of bone resorption, as it correlates with the absolute number of OCs and with resorption markers such as CTX-I. LÄS MER
19. Development of Novel Models for Studying Osteoclasts
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on developing and characterizing novel models for studying osteoclasts with an emphasis on how mutations abolishing osteoclastic acidification affect osteoclast signaling and bone remodeling, as well as how to treat patients bearing these rare mutations. Bone remodeling is under normal circumstances a tightly balanced process where resorption of bone by osteoclasts is followed by adequate amounts of bone formation by osteoblasts. LÄS MER
20. Vitamin D, bone turnover markers and hCAP-18 in children with hemato-oncological diseases
Sammanfattning : Children with hemato-oncological diseases may have significant skeletal morbidities. Vitamin D is essential for the maintenance of skeletal health and may also be important for immunological functions and cancer outcomes. LÄS MER
