1. Development of a New Biomechanical ex vivo Perfusion System - Studies on effects of biomechanical and inflammatory stress on hemostatic genes in human vascular endothelium
Sammanfattning : The vascular endothelium is a multifunctional interface constantly exposed to biomechanical forces such as shear and tensile stress. Biomechanical stress is involved in the pathophysiological process of the vessel wall and thus affects vascular remodeling, atherosclerosis and thrombogenesis. LÄS MER
2. On the role of genetic variation and epigenetics in hemostatic gene regulation
Sammanfattning : Many genetic variants have been identified to associate with circulating levels of hemostatic proteins and with thrombotic or hemorrhagic disorders. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. LÄS MER
3. Ischemic Stroke Outcomes - Analyses of Protein and Genetic Biomarkers
Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to identify novel biomarkers for ischemic stroke outcomes. The specific aims were to test the hypotheses that circulating concentrations of hemostatic biomarkers predict the long-term post-stroke risk of recurrent vascular events/death (paper I) and/or cognitive impairment (paper II) and that circulating concentrations of a marker of neuronal damage (neurofilament light chain, NfL) predict post-stroke functional and neurological outcomes (paper III) as well as to identify genetic variants associated with post-stroke functional outcome through a genome wide association study (GWAS) approach (paper IV).

4. Genetic Screening in Patients Suspected of Inherited Bleeding Disorders
Sammanfattning : Inherited bleeding disorders constitute a heterogeneous group of genetic diseases, affecting virtually all major components of the hemostatic system. The diagnostics are potentially complex, and a high proportion of patients remain without a conclusive diagnosis following work-up. LÄS MER
5. Inflammation and immunothrombosis in cerebral cavernous malformation : Novel molecular targets for the treatment of an incurable disease
Sammanfattning : Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular disease that causes mulberry-like lesions (cavernomas) in the central nervous system (CNS). Cavernomas are fragile, leaky and prone to rupture which may cause symptoms such as epileptic seizures, focal neurological deficits and hemorrhagic strokes. CCM lesions can appear sporadically in 0.
