21. Functional characterization of the secretory pathway and the role of COPI vesicles
Sammanfattning : In the secretory pathway, proteins synthesized in the endoplasmatic reticulum move through the Golgi apparatus in a cis-to-trans direction and then sorts into different types of vesicles at the trans-Golgi network. How intracellular transport takes place has been the focus of cell biology research for a long time. LÄS MER
22. Role of tubular scattered cells of the kidney in disease and regeneration
Sammanfattning : With well over 700 000 deaths every year worldwide, kidney disease constitutes an immense health problem for patients and society. The total global number of people with kidney disease regardless of severity amounts to a staggering 600 000 000. LÄS MER
23. Mucins, Cystic Fibrosis and PDZ protein interactions
Sammanfattning : Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is caused and characterized by mutations in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. The dominating feature of the disease is mucus accumulation on mucosal surfaces, but no direct functional connection between mucus and CFTR is known. LÄS MER
24. Transforming growth factor a in human hematopoietic cells
Sammanfattning : TGF-a, transforming growth factor a, is a potent growth factor belonging to the family of EGF (epidermal growth factor) -related proteins. Binding to the same receptor as EGF it has a ubiquitous repertoire of target cells, including, mesenchymal, epithelial and neuronal cells. LÄS MER
25. Bacterial genotoxins : an interface between infection and cancer biology
Sammanfattning : Infections contribute to the development of more than 20% of all malignancies in humans. While strong evidence exists for a number of virus-associated cancers, the role of bacterial infections is still poorly appreciated although there are evidences that link chronic bacterial infections to increased risk of certain tumors.
