1. Neural Stem Cells - interaction with the brain and prospects for cell replacement therapy for Stroke
Abstract : Stroke is an acute neurological condition and the leading cause of disability in adult humans. Treatments for efficient recovery are not available. The most common form of stroke results from the occlusion of the middle cerebral artery, which causes loss of brain parenchyma and many types of neurons as well as astrocytes and oligodendrocytes.

2. Evolution in multicellular mitotic lineages
Abstract : Many animals, and all plants and fungi, produce vegetative offspring, i.e. descendant individuals that originate from mitotic, rather than meiotic, cell lineages. Many animals, and all plants and fungi, produce vegetative offspring, i. READ MORE

4. The genetic basis of T and B cell contribution to autoimmune diabetes in NOD mice
Abstract : The nonobese diabetic mouse (NOD) is an excellent animal model to study type 1 diabetes. As with some humans, disease in the NOD mouse is effected by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. At least 20 insulin dependent diabetes (Idd) susceptibility loci have been identified so far, both in humans and in the NOD mouse. READ MORE

5. EWSR1 and FUS fusion genes in tumorigenesis
Abstract : The present thesis concerns the involvement of EWSR1 and FUS fusion genes, and the chimeric proteins they encode, in tumorigenesis. In Article I, the EWSR1 promoter, which regulates the expression of EWSR1 fusion genes, was characterized and regions that were crucial for promoter activity could be identified. READ MORE
