1. Development of benzoquinoquinoxaline derivatives as triplex-specific probes : Recognition of DNA structures at repeats sequences
Abstract : Repeat sequences are associated with several human diseases, such as Friedreich’s ataxia, polycystic kidney disease and cancer. These sequences can form non-B-DNA structures, including triplex (H-DNA) DNA, and are associated with genomic instability and altered gene expression. READ MORE

2. Novel Chromatography Matrices for Fast Isolation of Plasmid DNA
Abstract : As new therapeutic areas in which genetic material is employed, i.e. gene therapy and DNA vaccination, are expanding, a substantial increase in the demand for gene vectors, e.g. READ MORE

3. Specific Precipitation of Biomolecules Using Synthetic Polymers
Abstract : Purification is a very important stage in biotechnological processes. The traditionally used precipitation techniques are generally nonspecific and thus one or more chromatographic steps are normally required. There is thus a need for new approaches to improve existing techniques. READ MORE

4. Primary Sjögren's Syndrome: Studies of DNA damage responses and autoantibodies
Abstract : Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. The disease primarily involves lachrymal and salivary glands, leading to dryness of the eyes and mouth, but a wide spectrum of exocrine and non-exocrine disease manifestations may be seen. READ MORE

5. DNA vaccines and bacterial DNA in immunity
Abstract : This thesis describes DNA-based vaccination and the importance of bacterial DNA in different immunological perspectives. Intranasal (i.n.) DNA vaccination utilizing a plasmid encoding the chlamydial heat shock protein 60 (p-hsp-60) generated lower bacterial burden and reduced pathology in the lungs of mice after subsequent infection with C.
