1. Asexual embryogenesis in plants
Sammanfattning : The capacity of somatic cells and pollen grains or microspores to undergo embryogenesis is an important property used in improvement and regeneration of plants. Furthermore, somatic embryogenesis as well as pollen embryogenesis show many similarities with zygotic embryogenesis and are, thus, good model systems. LÄS MER
2. Regulation of B cell development by antigen receptors
Sammanfattning : The developmental processes of lymphopoiesis generate mature B lymphocytes from hematopoietic stem cells through increasingly restricted intermediates. Networks of transcription factors regulate these cell fate choices and are composed of both ubiquitously expressed and B lineage-specific factors. LÄS MER
3. On the Generation of cAMP Oscillations and Regulation of the Ca2+ Store-operated Pathway in Pancreatic Islet α- and β-cells
Sammanfattning : Insulin and glucagon are released in pulses from pancreatic β- and α-cells, respectively. Both cell types are electrically excitable, and elevation of the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) due to depolarization with voltage-dependent entry of the cation is the main trigger of hormone secretion.

4. Mathematical Models in Cellular Biophysics
Sammanfattning : Cellular biophysics deals with, among other things, transport processes within cells. This thesis presents two studies where mathematical models have been used to explain how two of these processes occur. Cellular membranes separate cells from their exterior environment and also divide a cell into several subcellular regions. LÄS MER
5. Studies of cell signalling using bacterial toxins and organic electronic devices
Sammanfattning : One of the most versatile biological signalling entities is the calcium ion, Ca2+. With a characteristic spatial and temporal signalling pattern, this universal second-messenger directs diverse cellular functions, e.g. secretion of neurotransmitters at the synaptic cleft to regulation of transcription and fertilization.
