1. Recombinant amelogenin - Strategies for purification and protein processing
Sammanfattning : Amelogenin is an extracellular matrix protein involved in formation of enamel during early tooth development. By interacting with the forming enamel crystallites amelogenin affects their growth, so that highly elongated hydroxyapatite crystals are formed. LÄS MER
2. On the repair of the dentine barrier
Sammanfattning : Det övergripande målet för avhandlingen har varit att studera några aspekter av läkningen av tandens huvudsakliga hårdvävnad, dentinet. Vid mycket djupa kariesangrepp där dentinet förstörts och pulpan därmed blottats, rotbehandlas ofta tanden vilket innebär att pulpan tas bort och att rotkanalen fylls med ett rotfyllningsmaterial.

3. Gene expression during hard tissue formation
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to study the formation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of bone and dentin during development. Molecular techniques, such as in situ hybridization and RT-PCR, were used to investigate the occurrence of specific gene products in formative cells. LÄS MER
4. RP59 : a novel stem cell protein and mapping of its expression
Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis was to study the expression pattern of a novel protein daring developmental processes. Firstly we identified so far unknown mRNA sequences coding for frequently expressed proteins in primitive mesenchymal cells in bone marrow and osteoblasts. LÄS MER
5. Metalloproteinases in development and disease
Sammanfattning : Metalloproteinases are Zn-dependent proteases composed of five superfamilies. One important subfamily is the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) that process various components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and non-ECM proteins. LÄS MER
