  2. 1. Genetic mechanisms behind cell specification in the Drosophila CNS

    Author : Magnus Baumgardt; Stefan Thor; Angela Giangrande; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drosophila melanogaster; nervous system development; cell specification; stem cells; cell proliferation; combinatorial coding; feedforward loop; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The human central nervous system (CNS) contains a daunting number of cells and tremendous cellular diversity. A fundamental challenge of developmental neurobiology is to address the questions of how so many different types of neurons and glia can be generated at the precise time and place, making precisely the right connections.

  4. 2. A Comparative Study of Head Development in Mexican Axolotl and Australian Lungfish: Cell Migration, Cell Fate and Morphogenesis

    Author : Rolf Ericsson; Rolf Ohlsson; Graham Budd; Lennart Olsson; Per Ahlberg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Head development; axolotl; lungfish; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology; miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The development of the vertebrate head is a complex process involving interactions between a multitude of cell types and tissues. This thesis describes the development of the cranial neural crest and of the visceral arch muscles in the head of two species. READ MORE

  5. 3. Epigenetic Regulation of the H19 Chromatin Insulator in Development and Disease

    Author : Claes Holmgren; Rolf Ohlsson; Tomas Ekstöm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology; Miljömedicinsk utvecklingsbiologi;

    Abstract : The coordinated regulation of gene expression must be tightly controlled for normal development to occur. In mammals, this issue is further complicated by the requirement of both the maternal and paternal genomes for normal development, reflecting the fact that a subset of genes are monoallelically expressed depending on parental inheritance, a phenomenon known as genomic imprinting.

  6. 4. Epigenetic Control of Mammalian Development : Studies on an imprinting control region

    Author : Liang Liu; Pärt Peterson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Epigenetic; Genomic imprinting; DNA methylation; Igf2; H19; Insulator; CTCF; Imprinting control region; Utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; zoologisk utvecklingsbiologi; Animal Development;

    Abstract : A subset of autosomal genes is preferentially or exclusively expressed from one of the parental alleles. This phenomenon, termed genomic imprinting, is highlighted by the neighboring Igf2 and H19 genes, which are monoallelically expressed on opposite parental chromosomes. These features are governed by a 2. READ MORE

  7. 5. New roles for apical secretion and extracellular matrix assembly in Drosophila epithelial morphogenesis

    Author : Satish Arcot Jayaram; Christos Samakovlis; Catherine Rabouille; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Developmental biology; Utvecklingsbiologi; utvecklingsbiologi; Developmental Biology;

    Abstract : Branched tubular organs, such as the lung and vascular system fulfill the respiratory needs of most animals. Optimal tissue function relies on the uniform sizes and shapes of the constituting branches in each organ. READ MORE
