21. NOTUM and RSPO3 in Bone - WNT signaling modulators regulating the skeleton
Sammanfattning : Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease affecting millions of people worldwide, often leading to fragility fractures and a decreased quality of life. There is an unmet medical need for new anabolic, bone building, treatments. LÄS MER
22. Opioid ligands and receptors of the joint
Sammanfattning : The aim was to explore the occurrence of an opioid system in joints. Thus, joint tissues from rats with and without arthritis and also from patients with knee osteoarthrosis were investigated by EM, immunohistochemistry, RIA, HPLC, receptor binding assay and RT-PCR. LÄS MER
23. Nano-porous Alumina, a Potential Bone Implant Coating
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes a method of growing a highly adherent nano-porous alumina coating on titanium implant materials, a design which might be useful in hard tissue replacement. Alumina layers were formed by anodisation of aluminium, which had been deposited on titanium and titanium alloys by electron beam evaporation. LÄS MER
24. Regulation of human cell viability by the host defence peptide LL-37
Sammanfattning : Accumulating evidence suggests that the main human cathelicidin peptide, LL-37, may influence host cell viability and pro-inflammatory signaling when locally overexpressed. LL-37 has pro-inflammatory properties linked to the development of for example psoriasis, rosacea, SLE and atherosclerosis. LÄS MER
25. Aseptic Loosening of Orthopedic Implants : Osteoclastogenesis Regulation and Potential Therapeutics
Sammanfattning : Aseptic loosening is the main cause of failure of orthopedic prostheses. With no pharmaceuticals to prevent or mitigate periprosthetic bone degradation, a surgery to replace the loose implant with a new one is the only choice to restore patients’ function. LÄS MER
