16. Mechanistic Based Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamics models for Drug Interactions and Disease Population Predictions
Sammanfattning : Therapeutic dose of a medication refers to the quantity of a drug required to produce a pharmacological effect without causing unacceptable adverse events. Dose selection in the clinical setting is not straight forward due to various factors, including specific patient factors such as age, sex, weight, genetic variants and renal/hepatic function, as well as external factors such as food and co-medication, all of which can influence the efficacy and safety of a drug.

17. Taxane-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy among Early-Stage Breast Cancer Survivors : Prevalence, Risk Factors, Quality of Life and Genetic Prediction Models
Sammanfattning : Background: Taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) is a common and distressful side effect. Little is known on how long TIPN persist and its effect on health-related quality of life (HRQL). LÄS MER
18. From disease to genes in animal models of rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and multiple sclerosis (MS) are complex inflammatory autoimmune diseases. The aetiology is largely unknown but the risk of developing disease is dependent on both genetic and environmental factors. LÄS MER
19. Modelling and genetic correction of liver genetic diseases
Sammanfattning : The urea cycle is a set of biochemical reactions that converts highly toxic ammonia into urea for excretion. Deficiencies in any of the genes of the cycle can be life-threatening, with liver transplantation currently being the only definitive treatment. LÄS MER
20. Genetic analysis of autoimmune diseases using animal models : Mapping susceptibility genes for multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis are common human diseasesaffecting 1% and 0.1% of the population respectively. These diseases are characterized by abnormal self-tolerance in the immune system and autoimmune reactions. LÄS MER
