1. Biophysical and chemical studies on the epiphysial plate : with special reference to experimental rickets
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
2. The Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 in Phosphate Homeostasis
Sammanfattning : The regulation of serum phosphate (Pi) concentrations is a complex process and our current models are far from complete. Due to major advancements in biotechnology and the development of more powerful research tools, recent advances in the field of genetics has led to the identification of several candidates for the long sought-after phosphatonin(s), or Pi regulating hormones.

3. Studies on the phenotype and function of osteoclasts using osteopetrotic and rachitic animal models
Sammanfattning : Osteoclasts are multinucleated bone-resorbing cells that have been implicated in a variety of skeletal diseases e.g. osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis and skeletal metastasis. Under physiological conditions, the osteoclast participates in ossification during longitudinal bone growth as well as in bone remodelling during adulthood. LÄS MER
4. 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
5. Necrotizing enterocolitis - growth, bone health and intestinal microbiota during childhood
Sammanfattning : Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a dreaded gastrointestinal disease primarily affecting infants born preterm. Despite extensive research, NEC is still one of the most devastating diseases in neonatal intensive care. LÄS MER
