  2. 1. High-resolution Imaging of Cleared and Expanded Kidney Tissue Samples

    Author : David Unnersjö Jess; Hans Blom; Hjalmar Brismar; Lena Scott; Karlhans Endlich; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Kidney; Renal Pathology; Microscopy; Super-resolution microscopy; Tissue expansion; Foot processes; Glomerular filtration; Podocytes; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Abstract : The kidney is one of the most important and complex organs in the humanbody with the task of filtering hundreds of litres of blood daily. It is responsiblefor the salt and acid/base balance in the body, as well as secretinghormones important for red blood cell production and blood pressure regulation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Role of embryonic mitochondria in the generation of congenital malformations in diabetic pregnancy

    Author : Xiaolin Yang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; embryo; diabetic pregnancy; congenital malformation; mitochondria; high-amplitudemitochondrial swelling; oxygen uptake; glucose utilization; Crabtree effect; superoxide generation; antioxidant; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; medicinsk cellbiologi; Medical Cell Biology;

    Abstract : Diabetic pregnancy is associated with an increased incidence of congenital malformations. The teratologicalmechanism may be related to an alteration of embryonic organogenesis by maternal metabolic derangementsduring early gestation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Swelling and Microstructure of Nanoplatelet Systems

    Author : Axel Thuresson; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nanoplatelets; Model clay system; Coarse grained models; Statistical mechanics; MC simulations; MD simulations; SAXS; Cryo-TEM; Laponite; Montmorillonite; Swelling; Tactoid;

    Abstract : Many clay minerals consist of charged nanoplatelets that swell in an aqueous solution. The swelling and the microstructure depend on the type of clay mineral but are also dependent on, for example, the ionic composition and the temperature of the solution. READ MORE

  6. 4. Water Fluxes and Cell Migration : How Aquaporin 9 Controls Cell Shape and Motility

    Author : Thommie Karlsson; Karl-Eric Magnusson; Roger Karlsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Prerequisites for all modes of cell migration are cell-substratum interactions that require a sophisticated interplay of membrane dynamics and cytoskeletal rearrangement. Generally, a migrating cell is polarized with a distinct rear and front, from which it extends a wide and thin membrane protrusion- lamellipodium, small fingerlike projections- filopodia, and membrane blisters- blebs.

  7. 5. The plantaris tendon in relation to the Achilles tendon in midportion Achilles tendinopathy : studies on morphology, innervation and signalling substances

    Author : Christoph Spang; Sture Forsgren; Håkan Alfredson; Patrik Danielson; Karim Khan; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Plantaris tendon; Achilles tendon; Achilles tendinopathy; innervation; morphology;

    Abstract : Midportion Achilles tendinopathy (tendinosis) is a troublesome painful condition, often characterised by pain, local swelling, tenderness and functional disability. Despite extensive research, the pathogenesis is poorly understood and treatment remains challenging. Features related to the peritendinous connective tissue can be of importance. READ MORE
