21. Health Promoting Effects of Bioactive Peptides in Milk - Studies on Cultured Normal Cells and Cancer Cells
Abstract : This thesis concerns the bioactive peptides lactoferricin and ubiquitin and findings suggesting that they have ability to modify the risk of cancer. It is known that components in bovine milk may improve human health and modify the risk of diseases. Examples of such compounds are bioactive peptides, i.e. READ MORE

22. Transport proteins in mammary epithelial cells : studies in murine (HC11) and bovine (BME-UV) cells - effects of prochloraz
Abstract : Transporters localized in membranes of secreting mammary epithelial cells are involved in delivery of essential nutrients into milk. However, drugs and other xenobiotics may be substrates of these transporters and thus be actively secreted into milk, which may pose a health threat to breastfed infants and dairy consumers.

23. Mechanisms of apoptosis induced by a protein complex isolated from human milk : with focus on the role of mitochondria
Abstract : Human milk contains a protein complex comprising of a folding variant of human alpha-lactalbumin and oleic acid (C18:1). Both, a milk fraction containing this complex (MAL, for multimeric (alpha- lactalbumin). READ MORE

25. Pheromones for modulating reproduction in cattle : biological potential of oestrus-related substances inintra- and inter-species chemical communication
Abstract : Declining dairy cow fertility, largely attributable to increasing milk yields, is of major concern to dairy farmers worldwide. New tools for reproductive management, to replace exogenous hormones, would be of great interest. Chemical communication in cattle has been suggested to cause modifications of the oestrous cycle.
