21. Role of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase and Melatonin in Regulation of β-cell Sensitivity to Cytokines
Abstract : The mechanisms of β-cell destruction leading to type 1 diabetes are complex and not yet fully understood, but infiltration of the islets of Langerhans by autoreactive immune cells is believed to be important. Activated macrophages and T-cells may then secrete cytokines and free radicals, which could selectively damage the β-cells. READ MORE

22. Arsenic Influences Virus Replication in Experimental Coxsackievirus B3 Infection
Abstract : Trace elements are essential for the host defence against infections, and during common infections, the balance of trace elements is changed in serum and tissues. Supplementation with selenium (Se), an essential trace element, is known to decrease the severity of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) infection in mice. READ MORE

23. Notch Signaling in Neuroblastoma and Renal Cell Carcinoma
Abstract : The Notch signaling pathway governs cell functions essential for normal development and organogenesis. Aberrant Notch signaling has been implicated in tumorigenesis by perturbing control of proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, migration and angiogenesis. READ MORE

25. Microstructure of Alumina (Al2O3) Grown by Oxidation of FeCrAl Alloys and by Chemical Vapour Deposition
Abstract : This thesis consists of two parts: the detailed microstructure of (i) CVD alumina multilayer coatings, and (ii) alumina scales formed on three different FeCrAl alloys. The coatings and oxide scales were characterized by using analytical electron microscopy and different surface analysis techniques. READ MORE
