  2. 1. Regulation of human ovarian folliculogenesis in vitro

    Author : Inger Britt Carlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Culture; follicle; folliculogenesis; GDF-9; AMH; c-Kit Kit Ligand; matrix; oocyte; ovary; TGF-beta;

    Abstract : Cryopreservation of ovarian tissue containing immature oocytes is one approach to preserving the potential fertility of young women who risk losing their oocytes as a consequence of treatment with anti-cancer agents, or genetic disorders. This cryopreserved tissue can then be transplanted back into the ovary when the woman wants to have children. READ MORE

  4. 2. Molecular and morphological studies of folliculogenesis, oocyte maturation and embryogenesis in humans

    Author : Maria Lindeberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Infertility is a problem that affects about 15 percent of all couples. Many can be helped by assisted reproductive techniques, but still today many couples are treated without a successful outcome. The reason for infertility is sometimes known, but there are also many cases of unexplained infertility. READ MORE

  5. 3. Targeting the ovary : mapping mechanisms to link endocrine-disrupting chemicals to female fertility

    Author : Tianyi Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In recent decades, growing attention has been paid to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) as mounting evidence suggests that they can cause detrimental reproductive outcomes in animals and humans. Even though epidemiological studies show the link between EDC exposure and adverse reproductive outcomes such as sub-fertility, longer time-to-pregnancy, and decreased ovarian reserve in women, the underlying mechanisms are not fully elucidated.

  6. 4. Classical cadherins and the thyroid. Studies on organ development and epithelial differentiation

    Author : Mats Grände; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Thyroid; cadherin; TGF-; EGF; MEK; development; EMT;

    Abstract : The cadherins are key regulators of tissue patterning and organ formation. E-cadherin is important for cell-cell adhesion and promotes epithelial morphogenesis and maintenance of the epithelial phenotype. READ MORE

  7. 5. Data analysis for discovering the protein profile dynamics of the human ovarian follicular fluid and BRAF mutated metastatic melanoma tissue. : -

    Author : Indira Pla Parada; Malmö Klinisk kemi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proteomics; data analysis; malignant melanoma; ovarian follicular fluid; reproduction; bioinformatics; mass spectromery; female infertility;

    Abstract : Proteomics is widely utilized to understand the function of cellular processes at the molecular level. Using liquid chromatography interfaced with mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based proteomics, thousands of proteins can be identified and quantified in a single experiment and their relationship and interactions can be analyzed.
