  2. 1. Molecular and Cellular Control of Palate Development in the Mouse

    Author : Forugh Vazirisani; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cleft palate; fate mapping; Sonic hedgehog; apoptosis; extracellular matrix; mouse;

    Abstract : The formation of a definitive secondary palate in mammals is a multistep process that comprises growth, elevation, contact and fusion of the two palatal shelves. Disruption at any step generates cleft palate, a major congenital birth defect. Therefore, it is important to understand the mechanisms governing normal palate development. READ MORE

  4. 2. Keeping up with retinal photoreceptors and horizontal cells : Labelling and mapping of cells in the normal and diseased embryonic chicken retina

    Author : Maria Blixt; Finn Hallböök; Maria Valeria Canto-Soler; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Chicken; electroporation; horizontal cells; photoreceptors; retina; piggyBac;

    Abstract : The childhood eye cancer retinoblastoma originates from the retina and its development is initiated while the foetus is in the uterus. Retinoblastoma has a reported incidence of 1 in 15-18 000 live births, and approximately 90% of all patients are diagnosed before the age of 5. READ MORE

  5. 3. A Comparative Study of Head Development in Mexican Axolotl and Australian Lungfish: Cell Migration, Cell Fate and Morphogenesis

    Author : Rolf Ericsson; Rolf Ohlsson; Graham Budd; Lennart Olsson; Per Ahlberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Head development; axolotl; lungfish; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology; miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The development of the vertebrate head is a complex process involving interactions between a multitude of cell types and tissues. This thesis describes the development of the cranial neural crest and of the visceral arch muscles in the head of two species. READ MORE

  6. 4. DNA fragility in the context of neural stem cell fate : a multi-method integrative exploration of genome dynamics

    Author : Roberto Ballarino; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Recent advances in mapping the complex genetic architecture underlying various debilitating brain disorders have enabled identification of several genetic risk variants. However, these risk variants only explain part of the heritability and vulnerability to these disorders in early development. READ MORE

  7. 5. Lineage commitment to a T

    Author : Sidinh Luc; Stamcellscentrum (SCC); []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hematopoietic stem cell; hematopoiesis; lineage commitment; lymphoid-primed multipotent progenitor;

    Abstract : he hematopoietic development is a highly dynamic but tightly regulated process. The flexibility to produce blood cells through more than one route will allow the blood system to respond rapidly in stress situations such as infections. READ MORE
