  1. 1. Endothelial and cardiac effects of 5-fluorouracil. An experimental and clinical study

    Författare :Sara Kinhult; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cancerology; oncology; Cytology; endothelin; onkologi; Cytologi; cancer; von Willebrand factor; thrombomodulin; lipoperoxidation; probucol; low-molecular weight heparin; scanning electron microscopy; 5-fluorouracil; endothelium;

    Sammanfattning : The cytostatic drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has been shown to affect both morphology and function of vascular endothelium. These effects could be part of the pathophysiology for 5-FU induced cardiotoxicity. The present thesis explores the mechanisms of this endothelial toxicity. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Inherited eye disorders (IED) are groups of genetically and clinically heterogenous conditions affecting different tissues in the eye. IED are most often progressive with reduced vision or legal blindness as outcome. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Modifying xenogeneic immune recognition and engraftment by genetic engineering

    Författare :Zhong He; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Xenotransplantation; gene therapy; gene transfer; endothelium; promoters; monocytes; NK cells; alpha-Gal; lentivirus vectors; pancreatic islets;

    Sammanfattning : Transplantation using xenogenic organs, tissues and cells (i.e. xenotransplantation) is a potential solution to the shortage of those from human sources. Vascular endothelial cells (ECs) are the most immediate barrier between the xenogeneic donor organ and the host defense systems. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Determinants of adverse events during oral anticoagulant treatment

    Författare :Marcus Lind; Jan-Håkan Jansson; Lars Johansson; Kurt Boman; Sam Schulman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oral anticoagulants; warfarin; mortality; bleeding; biomarkers; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Treament with oral anticoagulation is highly effective in reducing the burden of thromboembolic complications in several clinical conditions. The number of patients receiving oral anticoagulation is growing steadily. InSwedenabout 1.5 percent of the population receives treatment. LÄS MER
