1. Critical illness myopathy : effects of specific intervention strategies and molecular mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Skeletal muscles are a tissue with remarkable adaptability and are essential in the body in many aspects. The homeostasis of the muscles is vital for the maintenance of the body, thus muscle damage is associated with several diseases and leads to a poor quality of life. LÄS MER
2. A Comparative Study of Head Development in Mexican Axolotl and Australian Lungfish: Cell Migration, Cell Fate and Morphogenesis
Sammanfattning : The development of the vertebrate head is a complex process involving interactions between a multitude of cell types and tissues. This thesis describes the development of the cranial neural crest and of the visceral arch muscles in the head of two species. LÄS MER
3. Sequelae after Facial Palsy : Clinical, Anatomical and Electrophysiological Studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Sequelae after peripheral facial palsy, which among others include synkinesis, non-functional smile and/or lower lip asymmetry, may be devastating for the patient. Bell’s palsy is the most common form of peripheral facial palsy. LÄS MER
4. Craniofacial morphology and growth in the ferret: effects from alteration of masticatory function
Sammanfattning : INTRODUCTION: Our hypothesis is that any effects on craniofacial growth and morphology induced by altering the masticatory function will vary according to the species involved. The general aim of this thesis was to test the possible effects of altering the masticatory function on craniofacial growth and morphology, as well as features of masticatory muscles in ferrets.

5. Neuronal types and their specification dynamics in the autonomic nervous system
Sammanfattning : The autonomic nervous system is formed by a sympathetic and a parasympathetic division that have complementary roles in the maintenance of body homeostasis. Autonomic neurons, also known as visceral motor neurons, are tonically active and innervate virtually every organ in our body. LÄS MER
