  1. 1. Regulation of epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila by the Emp scavenger receptor

    Author : Ana Sofia Pinheiro; Christos Samakovlis; Sofia Araújo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Emp; scavenger receptor; CD36; cytoskeleton; Src kinase; Diap; DrICE; Hipo Yki; endocytosis; Drosophila; airways; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Abstract : The respiratory system of Drosophila melanogaster, the trachea, is widely used as a model system to study the development of branched tubular organs. Airway maturation in Drosophila entails a series of sequential events: first, a massive apical secretion of luminal proteins initiates diametric tube expansion, second an endocytic wave removes luminal proteins and finally liquid clearance and gas filling converts the nascent epithelial tubes to a functional respiratory organ.

  2. 2. Protection of Complex Infrastructure Systems against Intentional Electromagnetic Interference

    Author : Per Ängskog; Daniel Månsson; Per Näsman; Farhad Rachidi-Haeri; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; IEMI; CI; EMP; Critical Infrastructure; Electromagnetic Interference; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis the effects of, and defense against, antagonistic attacks using Intentional Electromagnetic Interference (IEMI) are treated; especially when targeting infrastructure critical to society (CI).IEMI as a means to disturb or destroy electronic equipment draws its roots from military methods to interrupt or interfere with enemy activities.

  3. 3. Malignant glioma : experimental studies with an estrogen-linked cytostatic

    Author : Eva von Schoultz; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; malignant glioma; meningioma; glioma cells; sex steroids; estramustine; nor-nitrogen mustard; estramustine- binding protein; DNA damage; cell membrane;

    Abstract : Malignant gliomas are the most common primary brain tumors in adults. Patients with these highly malignant tumors have an extremely poor prognosis. The situation with a highly proliferative tumor in a non-proliferating tissue should favor cytostatic treatment but so far the role of conventional chemotherapy has been adjunctive. READ MORE

  4. 4. Plasma cell malignancies in Sweden : subgroup descriptions and regional outcomes for multiple myeloma

    Author : Göran Wålinder; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Plasma cell disorders appear in various forms such as aggressive plasma cell leukemia (PCL), typical symptomatic multiple myeloma (MM), non-symptomatic smouldering multiple myeloma (SMM) and solitary plasmacytoma (SP). The different entities all require specific considerations regarding diagnosis and treatment. READ MORE

  5. 5. Cell derived microparticles : method development, and clinical and experimental studies

    Author : Fariborz Mobarrez; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Cell derived microparticles (MP) are released from the cell membrane upon activation or apoptosis. They resemble their parent cell by exposing similar proteins or surface receptors. This enables identification of their cellular origin. READ MORE
