1. Identification, Validation and Implementation of Blastemal Biomarkers in Wilms Tumour
Abstract : The aim of this thesis has been to establish biomarkers for the blastemal element in Wilms tumour (WT) – the most common paediatric kidney cancer. Blastema is, together with epithelium and stroma, one of the three common histological elements of WT. WTs dominated by blastema after preoperative chemotherapy are classified as high risk tumours.

2. Plasticity of salamander skeletal muscle cells
Abstract : Regeneration is unevenly spread throughout the animal kingdom. Some of the invertebrates have a very high regenerative capacity but the capacity to replace lost or damaged tissues in mammals is limited. READ MORE

3. Contracting muscle for regeneration : myogenic dedifferentiation in limb progenitor cell formation
Abstract : The urodele amphibians, such as newts and axolotls, are unique among vertebrates since they regenerate their limbs, tail, jaws and part of their heart and CNS as adults. After amputation of a newt limb, regeneration proceeds by the reversal of differentiation of tissues in the limb stump. READ MORE

4. Global regulation of gene expression in stem cells and regeneration
Abstract : Rapid developments in genomics and transcriptomics fields have made it possible to ask new questions as well as solve various old problems in biology that were not achievable previously. Novel techniques such as RNA sequencing and Hi-C became available at the time I started my PhD. READ MORE

5. Galactosaminoglycans - Role in Brittlestar Limb Regeneration
Abstract : Regeneration is, in simple terms, ‘to re-grow’ damaged or lost parts of the body (e.g. cells, tissues and organs) and is a natural phenomenon occurring throughout the life of an organism. The regenerative capacity varies in the animal kingdom. READ MORE
