16. A Finite Element Model of the Human Head for Simulation of Bone-conducted Sound
Sammanfattning : Bone conduction is usually understood as the hearing sensation based on the vibrations of the skull bone and surrounding tissues. The fact that vibration of the skull bones can result in a sound percept has been known for a long time. However, it is difficult to give a general definition of BC sound. LÄS MER
17. Immune variation in infectious disease and during development early in life
Sammanfattning : The human immune system is not only a complex system but a highly dynamic and heterogenous one. It consists of many specialized cells that stimulate and inhibit each other via proteins and physical interactions. LÄS MER
18. Novel signaling pathways : induced by bacterial toxins in eukaryotic cells
Sammanfattning : Inflammation is the process by which the host counteracts microbes that are constantly exposing the human body. These microbes rarely cause disease, due to the effective defense mechanisms of the host immune system. Although inflammation is essential for preventing infections, it can also damage the host.

19. In silico modelling for refining gene regulatory network inference
Sammanfattning : Gene regulation is at the centre of all cellular functions, regulating the cell's healthy and pathological responses. The interconnected system of regulatory interactions is known as the gene regulatory network (GRN), where genes influence each other to maintain strict and robust control. LÄS MER
20. Cell death and signal transduction pathways in Alzheimer's disease : the role of presenilin 1
Sammanfattning : Mutated presenilins (PSs) may cause familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD) by altering neuronal signal transduction pathways, by increasing AP production or by triggering a number of proapoptotic mechanisms. The present thesis explores mechanisms by which PSs regulate signal transduction and cell death with relevance to AD. LÄS MER
