16. Steady, ready, go - proteomics of etioplast inner membranes reveals a high readiness for light
Sammanfattning : Light is essential for development of photosynthetically active chloroplasts. In the absence of light proplastids develop into etioplasts which are readily transformed into chloroplasts upon illuminat... LÄS MER
17. Genetic and molecular regulation of epithelial tube morphogenesis
Sammanfattning : Networks of epithelial tubes, such as the vertebrate lung, kidney and vascular system, enable transport of gases and nutrients to all tissues in the body. These tubes are built up by a single layer of polarized epithelial cells, with the apical membrane facing the lumen. LÄS MER
18. Regulation of epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila by the Emp scavenger receptor
Sammanfattning : The respiratory system of Drosophila melanogaster, the trachea, is widely used as a model system to study the development of branched tubular organs. Airway maturation in Drosophila entails a series of sequential events: first, a massive apical secretion of luminal proteins initiates diametric tube expansion, second an endocytic wave removes luminal proteins and finally liquid clearance and gas filling converts the nascent epithelial tubes to a functional respiratory organ.

19. Renal Klotho in mineral metabolism
Sammanfattning : Calcium and phosphorous are critical elements in a number of physiological processes, including maintenance of bone structure, cell signaling and energy metabolism. Their endocrine regulation is tightly controlled through a number of feedback mechanisms involving parathyroid hormone (PTH), vitamin D and the recently discovered fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23).

20. Studies of ADAMTS13 expression and activity in the kidney
Sammanfattning : Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is an abundant plasma glycoprotein involved in platelet adhesion and aggregation at sites of vascular injury. ADAMTS13 is the sole physiological VWF-cleaving protease, thus regulating the size of thrombus growth. LÄS MER
