16. Evolution of acetylcholine receptors and study of the anatomy of the mouse brain reward system
Sammanfattning : This thesis work is divided in two parts. In the first part, I make use of the transgenic TRPV1-Cre mouse line as a tool to investigate the midbrain ventral tegmental area (VTA). LÄS MER
17. Evolutionary Genomics of Nematode-Trapping Fungi
Sammanfattning : Nematode-trapping fungi are ubiquitous, soil-living organisms with the ability to infect and kill nematodes. These fungi have developed specialized infection structures for the capture of nematodes. LÄS MER
18. Origin and the evolution of diatoms through the integration of paleontology and phylogenetics
Sammanfattning : Diatoms, the prominent photosynthetic eucaryotes, have inhabited the world’s oceans for at least the past 120 Ma since their first appearance in the Lower Cretaceous. There are also records of older diatoms, from the Jurassic dating to ca. 172 Ma and ca. 165 Ma, however these are poorly documented. LÄS MER
19. Genetic Studies of Alzheimer's Disease
Sammanfattning : Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) often have a family history of the disease, implicating genetics as a major risk factor. Three genes are currently known to cause familial early-onset AD (65 years), only the APOE gene has repeatedly been associated to AD, where the ε4 allele increases disease risk and decreases age at onset.

20. Sculpted through Time : Evolution and Function of Serine Proteases from the Mast Cell Chymase Locus
Sammanfattning : Immune cells like NK cells, T cells, neutrophils and mast cells store high amounts of granule serine proteases, graspases. Graspases are encoded from the mast cell chymase locus. The human locus holds four genes: α-chymase, cathepsin G, and granzymes H and B. In contrast, the mouse locus contains at least 14 genes. LÄS MER
