1. Lipoprotein lipase in hemodialysis patients and healthy controls : effects of heparin
Abstract : Mortality from cardiovascular disease in patients on chronic hemodialysis (HD) is 10 to 20 times greater than in the general population. One major risk factor is renal dyslipidemia, characterised by an impaired catabolism of triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins with accumulation of atherogenic remnant particles. READ MORE

2. Heparan sulfate dependent cell signaling and associated pathophysiology : Implications in tumorigenesis and embryogenesis
Abstract : Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) consist of a protein core to which several linear, negatively charged heparan sulfate (HS) chains are covalently attached. HSPGs are expressed on the cell surface and in the extra-cellular matrix (ECM) where they have diverse biological functions, for example co-receptor functions. READ MORE

3. Clinical aspects on treatment of deep venous thrombosis with a low molecular weight heparin
Abstract : Dalteparin is a low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) with a mean mw of 4-6000 D. Compared to unfractionated heparin (UFH), a higher bioavailability, a longer half-life and a more predictable dose-response is achieved after subcutaneous injections. READ MORE

4. Antithrombotic Effects of Activated Protein C and Heparins in Deep Arterial Injury
Abstract : The investigations presented in this thesis have evaluated different strategies to prevent thrombosis in an experimental model of deep arterial injury in rats. Unfractionated heparin (UFH) is often used to prevent thrombosis in microvascular surgery and in other vascular interventions, but a major drawback of UFH is increased bleeding. READ MORE

5. Endothelial and cardiac effects of 5-fluorouracil. An experimental and clinical study
Abstract : The cytostatic drug 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) has been shown to affect both morphology and function of vascular endothelium. These effects could be part of the pathophysiology for 5-FU induced cardiotoxicity. The present thesis explores the mechanisms of this endothelial toxicity. READ MORE
