2. 11. Genetic Sequence Analysis by Microarray Technology

   Author : Emilie Hultin; Joakim Lundeberg; Afshin Ahmadian; Marie Allen; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Genotyping; single nucleotide polymorphism SNP ; protease-mediated allele-specific extension PrASE ; microarray; tag-array; competitive hybridization; human papillomavirus HPV ; single cell; loss of alleles; differentiation; epidermis.; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Abstract : Developments within the field of genetic analysis have during the last decade become enormous. Advances in DNA sequencing technology have increased throughput from a thousand bases to over a billion bases in a day and decreased the cost thousandfold per base. READ MORE

4. 12. Multiphoton Microscopy Targeting Tissue Development. Towards the real-time imaging of epidermal differentiation

   Author : Monika Malak; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; multiphoton microscopy; fluorescence lifetime imaging; epidermal differentiation; reconstructed human epidermis; organ-on-a-chip; intrinsic fluorescence;

   Abstract : The development of novel organ-on-a-chip models calls for methodologies, which will allow the study of tissue development and pharmacological outcome in real-time. Multiphoton microscopy (MPM) has been proposed as a suitable technique for noninvasive imaging of live specimens, utilizing intrinsic tissue fluorescence. READ MORE

5. 13. Functional morphology of mammalian rhinariumn skin

   Author : Inga Tuminaite; Funktionell zoologi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nasolabial; skin; epidermis; cutaneous innervation; canine; vascularization; cold acclimatization;

   Abstract : The naked skin surrounding the nostrils in most mammals is called a rhinarium. Rhinarium skin exhibits several unique characteristics, including an ultrastructure of pits or furrows on surface corneocytes, formed in a unique epidermal differentiation process (Paper I). READ MORE

6. 14. Analysis of human epidermal Langerhans' cells and allergens with confocal laser scanning microscopy

   Author : Axel Emilson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : 3-D analysis; allergen; allergic contact dermatitis; basal cellcarcinoma; Bet v I; birch; confocal laser scanning microscopy; epidermis; HLA-DR; image analysis; invariant chain; irritant contact dermatitis; Langerhans cell; occlusion; P. orbiculare;

   Abstract : The aim of the thesis was to explore confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) as a tool for 1) quantitative and 3-dimensional (3-D) analysis of the human antigen-presenting Langerhans' cell (LC) in epidermis and 2) for localization of allergens in yeast cells and in birch pollen. Epidermal LCs were investigated after occlusion with patch tests and in basal cell carcinoma (BCC) skin. READ MORE

7. 15. Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors and Biological Effects of HER-directed Molecules on Skin Epithelialization

   Author : Sofi Forsberg; Ola Rollman; Arne Östman; Anders Vahlquist; Eva Hagforsen; Gunnar Kratz; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dermatology and venerology; Dermatologi och venerologi;

   Abstract : Human skin forms a biologically active barrier and maintains vital protective functions through continuous regeneration of cells within its outermost layer, the epidermis. In healthy skin, renewal of epithelial cells is a tightly regulated process in which the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or HER1) and its various ligands are involved. READ MORE
