  2. 1. Cellular and Molecular Responses to Traumatic Brain Injury

    Author : Camilla Lööv; Anna Erlandsson; M. Elly Hol; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Traumatic Brain Injury; Astrocyte; Apoptosis; Biomarkers; Ezrin; Actin; Extracellular Proteins; Degradation; Lysosome; Antigen Presentation; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap; Neurosurgery; Neurokirurgi;

    Abstract : Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a relatively unknown disease considering the tens of millions of people affected around the world each year. Many TBI patients die from their injuries and survivors often suffer from life-long disabilities. READ MORE

  4. 2. Risk Factors of Tumour Recurrence and Reduced Survival in Rectal Cancer

    Author : Fredrik Jörgren; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Tumour Marker; Ezrin; Intestinal Perforation; Neoplasm Recurrence; Rectal Neoplasms; Local; Neoplasm Metastasis; Survival Rate; Risk Factors; Surgical; Anastomosis;

    Abstract : In Sweden, 2000 patients are diagnosed with rectal cancer annually. In 1995, the Swedish Rectal Cancer Registry (SRCR) was launched to supervise and assure the quality of the management of rectal cancer. Advances in the management of rectal cancer have reduced the local recurrence (LR) rate and improved survival. READ MORE

  5. 3. Aquaporins - Novel approaches to old problems

    Author : Carl Johan Hagströmer; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; aquaporin AQP ; membrane proteins; X-ray crystallography; nephrogenic diabetes insipidus; Sjögren s syndrome; cataracts; ezrin; calmodulin; continuous diffraction; protein-protein interactions;

    Abstract : As all life on this planet evolves around water, it is important for our bodies to be able to regulate it. This may be done passively, but just like with water in the ocean, if we were to rely solely on passive transport (such as evaporation), the flow of water would be too slow for biological functions to uphold the homeostasis that is so important for us to survive.

  6. 4. Induction of the cytoskeletal protein radixin in the adult brain

    Author : Åsa Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Rostral migratory stream; stroke; Neural stem cells; microglia; ezrin radixin moesin; Olig2;

    Abstract : Abstract Neural stem and progenitor cells (NSPCs) proliferate throughout life in two regions of the brain, namely the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the lateral ventricles and the subgranular zone of dentate gyrus in the hippocampus. In the adult SVZ, NSPCs give rise to neuroblasts that leave the SVZ for long distance migration along the rostral migratory stream (RMS), on their way to the olfactory bulb where they mature and are integrated in the neural network.

  7. 5. Early oncogenic events and defective apoptosis in prostate cancer

    Author : Xiaolei Fang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Prostate cancer; HGPIN; ezrin; pim-1; XAF1; apoptosis; DNA methylation; immunohistochemistry; FISH;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is one of the most common malignancies in males in the Western world. Although the mechanisms are unclear, it is generally believed that the accumulation of genetic alterations leads to the tumor formation. READ MORE
