16. QTL Analysis in the Pig : From the Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci to the Understanding of Molecular Mechanisms
Sammanfattning : Domestic pigs have become very different form the wild ancestors they originate from. Selection for muscle growth and meat quality has made the pig a good model for genetic studies of muscle development.The first part of this thesis presents a genome-wide scan for quantitative trait loci (QTL) in a cross between Landrace and Hampshire pigs.

17. Molecular genetics of type 2 diabetes
Sammanfattning : Type 2 diabetes is a common and chronic disease caused by interactions between genetic and environmental factors. The Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat is a well-established genetic model of type 2 diabetes. LÄS MER
18. Search for MODY and Type 2 diabetes genes
Sammanfattning : Diabetes is a heterogeneous disease influenced by both environmental and genetic factors. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is considered as a subform of Type 2 diabetes, which is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion and expressed at childhood or early adult life. LÄS MER
19. Hypospadias : gene mapping and candidate gene studied
Sammanfattning : Hypospadias is a common congenital malformation in boys, characterized by incomplete fusion of the urethral folds, abnormal opening of urethra and different degrees of curvature of the penis. In Sweden, the incidence of hypospadias is 1.14 per 300 male live-births according to the annual Swedish Malformation Registry. LÄS MER
20. Genetic studies of susceptibility to diabetes mellitus with emphasis on type 1 diabetes
Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus is a common multifactorial disease that needs lifelong treatment of insulin and/or oral treatment to prevent hyperglycaemia. Despite treatment, patients with diabetes, still suffer from severe complications later in life. LÄS MER
