21. Microenvironmental control and molecular detection of neural stem cell state and fate
Sammanfattning : Neural stem cell growth and specialization is dependent on microenvironmental cues, such as growth factors, oxygen levels and substrate stiffness. Together these cues define the genetic and epigenetic program of neural stem cells. In our studies we have manipulated these cues in order to achieve better control of neural stem cell state and fate. LÄS MER
22. Studies on Molecular Genetics of B cell Development
Sammanfattning : The development of immature progenitor cells into highly differentiated effector cells is a process central in modern medicine with applications in the fields of cell therapy as well as oncology. This thesis is focused on the molecular mechanisms that control the development of B lymphocytes. LÄS MER
23. The odyssey of MYC transcript from the nucleus to the cytoplasm : the molecular mechanism of the gene gating in human cancer cells
Sammanfattning : Pathological expression of the MYC oncogene is a common denominator in a wide range of cancers and is linked with abnormal cell proliferation. To achieve this status, the MYC gene benefits from being embedded in a region rich in enhancers and super-enhancers that are often absent in the normal cell counterparts. LÄS MER
24. Cellular and Viral Factors that Control Human Papillomavirus Type 16 Late Gene Expression
Sammanfattning : Human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) is the major cause of cervical cancer. We speculate that inhibition of HPV-16 late gene expression is a prerequisite for establishment of persistence and progression to cervical cancer. LÄS MER
25. Switching ON Fetal B Lymphopoiesis
Sammanfattning : B-1a cells are innate-like lymphocytes that develop primarily during fetal and neonatal life, whereas adult bone marrow (BM) hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) preferentially give rise to follicular B-2 cells. Functioning at the interface of the innate and adaptive immune systems, B-1a cells provide a non-redundant first line of defense prior to the temporally delayed establishment of a B-2 cell response.
