  2. 6. Laminins and alpha11 integrin in the human eye : importance in development and disease

    Author : Berit Byström; Fatima Pedrosa Domellöf; Ulf Stenevi; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; basement membranes; extracellular matrix; laminin; integrin; cornea; development; keratoconus; wound healing; remodeling; immunohistochemistry; Ophtalmiatrics; Oftalmiatrik;

    Abstract : The extracellular matrix (ECM) offers a protective shelter for cells and provides signaling paths important for cell to cell communication. ECM consists of basement membranes (BM) and interstitial matrix. BMs provide mechanical support for parenchymal cells, influence cell proliferation, survival, migration and differentiation.

  4. 7. Forkhead Genes in Mammalian Development

    Author : Henrik Landgren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Development; Forkhead;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns aspects of Forkhead gene biology and it’s relation to mammalian development. Genes from three subclasses are discussed, Foxj3, Foxf1 and f2, and Foxe3. READ MORE

  5. 8. Evolution and Development of the Onychophoran Head and Nervous System

    Author : Joakim Eriksson; Graham Budd; John Peel; Gerhard Scholtz; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biology; Onychophora; Development; Nervous System; Immunohistochemistry; Gene Expression; Biologi; Biology; Biologi; zoologisk utvecklingsbiologi; Animal Development;

    Abstract : Onychophorans are closely allied to the arthropods and possess a body organisation more similar to Middle Cambrian fossils than to recent arthropods. This means that onychophorans in some respects can be regarded as a model for the last common ancestor to both the Arthropoda and the Onychophora. READ MORE

  6. 9. The cultured neuroretina: development, survival and transplantation

    Author : Karl Engelsberg; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oftalmologi; Ophtalmology; transplantation; development; culture; retina;

    Abstract : In the cultured immature rat full-thickness neuroretina, massive apoptosis appears in the GCL within hours after explantation, but in the ONL cell death is low. Microglia cells become activated when the retina is kept in culture and are found in the GCL within 24 hours of culture. READ MORE

  7. 10. Imaging the pancreas : new aspects on lobular development and adult constitution

    Author : Andreas Hörnblad; Ulf Ahlgren; Guy Rutter; Umeå universitet; []

    Abstract : The mouse pancreas is a mixed exocrine and endocrine glandconsisting of three lobular compartments: the splenic, duodenal and gastric lobes. During embryogenesis, the pancreas forms from two progenitor populations located on the dorsal and ventral side of the primitive gut tube. READ MORE
