16. Long-term radiobiological effects of 131I exposure - dose, age and time related transcriptomatic and proteomic rasponse in rats
Sammanfattning : 131I is commonly used in the clinic for treating thyroid diseases, using the physiological uptake of iodine in thyroid, but also for other target tissues. 131I is also commonly released during nuclear accidents. LÄS MER
17. Growth factor receptor signalling in thyrocytes of normal and neoplastic origin
Sammanfattning : Cellular growth and function are controlled by stimulatory and inhibitory factors actingthrough specific receptors. The present thesis focuses on the role of growth factors, theirreceptors and signalling pathways in normal and neoplastic thyroid epithelial cell biology. LÄS MER
18. Genetic and Genomic Studies in Chicken : Assigning Function to Vertebrate Genes
Sammanfattning : A major challenge in the post-genomic era is to understand how genome sequence variants (genotype) give rise to the enormous diversity observed in terms of morphology, physiology and behavior (phenotype) among living organisms. Domestic animals—with their tremendous phenotypic variation—are excellent model organisms for determining the relationships between genotype and phenotype. LÄS MER
19. Down syndrome : Growth and endocrine impact
Sammanfattning : Down syndrome (DS) is associated with psychomotor retardation, short stature and endocrine dysfunction. Statural growth is a well-known indicator of health. The growth in DS differs markedly from that of other children and there is a 20 cm reduction of final height as compared to target height. LÄS MER
20. Interactions between the stroma and thyroid epithelial cells of normal and malignant origin
Sammanfattning : Endocrine and locally produced factors as well as interactions between epithelial cells and the stroma important in the control of growth and function of the thyroid gland. In this study, the effects of, and mechanism(s) for, such cross-talk under some normal and pathological conditions were investigated. LÄS MER
