  2. 1. Control of early development of the lens and the retina

    Author : Tanushree Pandit; Lena Gunhaga; Paola Bovolenta; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lens; retina; BMP; FGF; chick; Developmental Biology; miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The nervous system is composed of two separate compartments, the central and the peripheral nervous system. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) composed mainly of sensory organs transmits sensory information to the central nervous system (CNS) comprising the brain and the spinal cord. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cannabinoids as modulators of cancer cell viability, neuronal differentiation, and embryonal development

    Author : Sofia Gustafsson; Stig Jacobsson; Birgitta Sander; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cannabinoids; cell viability; neuronal differentiation; colorectal cancer; chick embryo; biokemisk farmakologi; biochemical pharmacology; Toxicology; toxikologi;

    Abstract : Cannabinoids (CBs) are compounds that activate the CB1 and CB2 receptors. CB receptors mediate many different physiological functions, and cannabinoids have been reported to decrease tumor cell viability, proliferation, migration, as well as to modulate metastasis. READ MORE

  6. 4. Human Embryonic Stem Cells: Directed Differentiation into Posterior Foregut Endoderm and a Functional Assay for Definitive Endoderm

    Author : Martina Johannesson; Immunologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : A decade has passed since the first human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line was established, providing immense hope in curing diseases by cell replacement therapy. For instance, in the pancreas, the insulin-producing β-cells are damaged in diabetes patients, and a successful replacement of those cells could provide a cure. READ MORE

  7. 5. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptors in angiogenesis

    Author : Kui Huang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; endothelial cells; VEGF receptor; signal transduction; pertide; angiogenesis; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Medical Biochemistry; medicinsk biokemi;

    Abstract : Angiogenesis is a process in which new capillaries sprout from preexisting blood vessels. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promotes endothelial cell proliferation and migration and thereby stimulates angiogenesis. VEGF receptors (VEGFRs) have been implicated as key regulatory components in endothelial cells. READ MORE
