  1. 21. Pathophysiology of 5-fluorouracil induced cardiotoxicity : a clinical and experimental study

    Författare :Magdalena Cwikiel; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oncology; Cytology; cell culture.; scanning and transmission electron microscopy; endothelium; lipid peroxidation; free radical; fibrinogen; 5-fluorouracil; blood and plasma viscosity; cardiotoxicity; cancerology; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer; Pharmacological sciences; pharmacognosy; pharmacy; toxicology; Farmakologi; farmakognosi; farmaci; toxikologi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the pathophysiology of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) induced cardiotoxicity. The aim of the clinical studies was to determine whether hemorheological factors might explain 5-FU cardiotoxicity (I) and if the syndrome was associated with free radical (FR) generation and lipid peroxidation (II).

  2. 22. Organ-specific mechanisms of vascular development in the mesentery

    Författare :Yang Zhang; Taija Mäkinen; Wiebke Herzog; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lymphatic vasculature; mesentery; hemogenic endothelium; lymphvasculogenesis; endothelial integrity; platelet; blood-filled lymphatic vessel; morphogenesis and maturation; compensation;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding how the vascular systems are formed has significant clinical importance. General mechanisms underlying vascular development have been extensively studied during the past decades. However, the mechanisms regulating the development and function of the blood and lymphatic vessels in specific organs are poorly understood. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Redox processes and oxidative stress in cell and tissue damage

    Författare :Lisa Arodin Selenius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Oxidative stress is described as an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants, with a shift towards the oxidants. When the antioxidative systems are insufficient or the production of radicals is increased oxidative damage can occur, damaging DNA, lipids, and proteins. Oxidative stress has been implicated in several pathologies. LÄS MER

  4. 24. The role of the lymph node stroma in cancer and aging

    Författare :Tove Bekkhus; Maria H. Ulvmar; Timothy P. Padera; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lymph node; Stroma; High endothelial venule HEV ; Lymphatic endothelial cells LECs ; Breast cancer; Metastasis; Lipomatosis; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : The function of the lymph node (LN) stroma is crucial for the induction of an adaptive immune response. The stroma includes lymphatic vessels, high endothelial venules (HEVs) and mesenchymal cells (MCs). In this thesis, I have been investigating the role of the LN stroma in cancer and aging. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Making endothelial cells move : a study of angiomotin and binding partners

    Författare :Nathalie Luna Persson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is a process crucial for tumor growth and metastasis formation and encompasses the control of endothelial directional migration, anastomosis and lumen formation. We have previously shown that Angiomotin (Amot), a membrane-associated scaffold protein, plays an essential role in controlling endothelial cell migration and cellshape. LÄS MER
