11. Antibody- and osteoclast-dependent mechanisms of chronic pain
Sammanfattning : Chronic pain is a frequent condition that affects approximately 20% of worldwide population with a higher prevalence among women. Due to the lack of optimal treatment, chronic pain leads to decreased life quality as well as significant physical and psychological complications. LÄS MER
12. Peri-implantitis : treatment and effects of enamel matrix derivative
Sammanfattning : Biological complications affecting osseointegrated dental implants are a growing treatment problem in clinical practice. Since the number of implant carriers has increased in recent decades, this is an urgent topic in dentistry. LÄS MER
13. The calcitonin gene family of peptides : receptor expression and effects on bone cells
Sammanfattning : The calcitonin gene family of peptides consists of calcitonin (CT), two calcitonin gene related peptides (α-CGRP, β-CGRP), adrenomedullin (ADM), amylin (AMY), three calcitonin receptor activating peptides (CRSP1-3) and intermedin/adrenomedullin2 (IMD). These peptides bind to one of two G protein -coupled receptors, the calcitonin receptor (CTR) or the calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR). LÄS MER
14. Tissue responses to bone-implant biomaterials
Sammanfattning : The purpose of the studies was to understand the mechanisms which underlie the interaction between tissue and bone-implant biomaterials. Tissue and naturally occurring aragonite nacre interaction was systematically studied for the first time by combined histological examination, cellular and molecular biological approaches. LÄS MER
15. Matrix resorption in endochondral bone growth : ultrastructural studies, with special attention to the chondroclast
Sammanfattning : A substantial amount of the calcified cartilage in the distal parts of the epiphyseal plate is resorbed during endochondral growth of long bones. However, the mechanisms involved in this process are still largely unknown. On the other hand, bone-resorption in the lower metaphysis has been thoroughly investigated. LÄS MER
