  2. 1. Experimental studies on barriers of the esophageal mucosa

    Author : Nadereh Poorkhalkali; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Esophagus; gastroesophageal reflux disease; glycoconjugates; lectins; esophagitis; basal cell hyperplasia; metaplasia; gastrin; cell kinetics;

    Abstract : Reflux esophagitis is the multifactorial result of the failing of protective barriers and the aggressive assault on the esophageal epithelium by gastric contents entering the esophagus. The three main lines of defense against reflux are: the antireflux barriers, the luminal acid clearance and the epithelium itself. READ MORE

  4. 2. Regulatory Proteins in Progenitors and Differentiated Cells of the Human Prostate

    Author : Jens Ceder; Malmö (Abrahamsson) Urologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mesenchymal stem cells; somatostatin; transit amplifying cells; cell differentiation; adult stem cells; Prostate gland; prostatic benign hyperplasia; neuroendocrine cells; prostate cancer;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer (PC) develops from an androgen-dependent tissue that contains androgen receptors in both the stromal and glandular compartments. Surgical removal of the prostate may cure the patient, but if metastatic spread has occurred, androgen suppression therapy is the standard treatment. READ MORE

  5. 3. Development of multi-cellular human lung models to study inflammatory mechanisms and cell-cell interactions

    Author : Jie Ji; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It is well known that exposure to toxicants in the environment is associated with a wide range of health effects. The airway epithelium which forms the first line of defense, plays critical roles in the defence against inhaled particles, pathogens and toxic agents. READ MORE

  6. 4. Development of a mouse model for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome reveal defects in adult stem cell maintenance

    Author : Ylva Rosengardten; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a very rare genetic disease that presents some features of accelerated aging. Children with the disease are born appearing healthy but start to develop signs of the disease within their first years of life. READ MORE

  7. 5. Corneal cellular proliferation and wound healing

    Author : Lisha Gan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : cornea; cell proliferation; wound healing; stem-cells; leukocytes; PCNA; hyaluronan; alkali injury; photorefractive keratectomy;

    Abstract : Background: Cellular proliferation plays an important role in both physiological and pathological processes. Epithelial hyperplasia in the epithelium, excessive scar formation in retrocorneal membrane formation and neovascularization are examples of excessive proliferation of cornea cells. Lack of proliferative ability causes corneal degeneration. READ MORE
