11. Allergic and non-allergic asthma: Translational research in immunology
Sammanfattning : Asthma is a chronic heterogeneous respiratory disease affecting more than 300 million people globally. The different phenotypes, including allergic and nonallergic asthma, are driven by different underlying mechanisms illustrating the complexity of the disease. LÄS MER
12. β-Adrenergic Signalling Through mTOR
Sammanfattning : Adrenergic signalling is part of the sympathetic nervous system and is activated upon stimulation by the catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine. This regulates heart rate, energy mobilization, digestion and helps to divert blood flow to important organs. LÄS MER
13. Insulin signaling in primary adipocytes in insulin sensitive and insulin resistant states
Sammanfattning : Increasing numbers of people world-wide develops the disease type 2 diabetes. Development of type 2 diabetes is characterized by a shift from an insulin sensitive state to an insulin resistant state in peripheral insulin responding organs, which originates from the development of insulin resistance in the adipose tissue.

14. The role of autophagy in cartilage physiology and metabolism : implications for growth and ageing
Sammanfattning : Cartilage is the main constituent of the embryonic skeleton. At the ends of long bones cartilage forms a growth plate consisting of chondrocytes in distinct stages of differentiation and arranged into three zones. These chondrocytes mediate linear bone growth through synchronized proliferation, differentiation, and production of matrix. LÄS MER
15. Molecular Mechanisms of the DEK Protein in Leukemia
Sammanfattning : The DEK gene is upregulated in a growing number of cancers and translocated to form the DEK-NUP214 fusion gene in a subset of acute myeloid leukemia. In this thesis, we studied the cellular and molecular functions of the DEK and DEK-NUP214 proteins. LÄS MER
