  1. 36. Toxicity and biocompatibility of nanoparticles, and studies on oxidative stress and DNA damage

    Författare :Ylva Rodhe; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Oxidative stress is associated with several diseases, either as a cause or a consequence. Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one example of a disease in which elevated levels of oxidative stress are frequently reported. LÄS MER

  3. 37. Oligodontia and ectodermal dysplasia : on signs, symptoms, genetics and outcomes of dental treatment

    Författare :Birgitta Bergendal; Christina Stecksén-Blicks; Margareta Molin Thorén; Göran Dahllöf; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tooth agenesis; oligodontia; ectodermal dysplasia; orofacial function; dental implants; EDARADD; Paedodontics; Pedodonti; odontologi; Odontology;

    Sammanfattning : The general aim of this thesis was to broaden our knowledge of the signs and symptoms, genetics, and outcomes of dental implant treatment in individuals with oligodontia or ectodermal dysplasia. Article I is a population-based study in three Swedish counties of 162 individuals with oligodontia, which was a prevalence of 0.09%. LÄS MER

  4. 38. Experimental autoimmune sialadenitis : studies of immunopathogenesis, cellular signaling and MHC genetics

    Författare :Elwaleed Ibrahim Mustafa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Experimental autoimmune sialadenitis (EAS), an animal model for Sjogren´s syndrome (SS) in humans, develops spontaneously in certain mouse strains. A major feature of EAS and SS is infiltration of exocrine glands by mononuclear cells (MNC), and functional impairment of predominantly salivary and lachrymal glands leading to mouth and eye dryness.

  5. 39. New roles for apical secretion and extracellular matrix assembly in Drosophila epithelial morphogenesis

    Författare :Satish Arcot Jayaram; Christos Samakovlis; Catherine Rabouille; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Branched tubular organs, such as the lung and vascular system fulfill the respiratory needs of most animals. Optimal tissue function relies on the uniform sizes and shapes of the constituting branches in each organ. LÄS MER

  7. 40. Studies on nerve terminations in human mucosa and skin

    Författare :Marita Hilliges; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Epithelium; herpes simplex; immunohistochemisry; Merkel cell; mucosa; nerves; oral; PGP 9.5; skin; stereology; urinary incontinence; vagina.;

    Sammanfattning : In spite of their accessibility and important sensory function, the nervous tissue components of human oral and vaginal mucosa and skin have been subject to very few, if any, systematic investigations. Studies on the innervation of oral tissues have mainly focused on the dental pulp, the periodontium and the gingiva, probably because of specific clinical interest, thus largely neglecting the mucosa.
