  2. 2. Analysis of Endogenous Particles in Exhaled Air

    Author : Ann-Charlotte Almstrand; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : exhaled particles; time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry; OPLS; airway closure; exhaled breath condensate; glutathione;

    Abstract : Exhaled air contains non-volatile particulate material from the respiratory tract. The precise location in which exhaled particles are formed is unknown, and details on their chemical content are scarce. The aim of this work was to chemically characterize and to study the mechanisms of formation of endogenous particles in exhaled air. READ MORE

  4. 4. The Foxf2 gene in development and disease

    Author : Azadeh Reyahi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Foxf2; Pericyte; brain development; stroke;

    Abstract : The Foxf2 gene in development and disease Azadeh Reyahi Department of Chemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Gothenburg, Box 462, SE 405 30, Göteborg, Sweden Abstract In this thesis I present our recent data on the involvement and the mechanism of action of the forkhead transcription factor Foxf2 in development of the brain microvasculature, formation of the blood-brain barrier, control of the intestinal stem cell niche, and fusion of the secondary palate. The potential clinical signifi- cance of these findings is strengthened by a correlation between Foxf2 expres- sion and intestinal adenoma formation, and by association between genetic vari- ants in human FOXF2 and incident stroke.
