6. On the Growth of Bone through Stress Driven Diffusion and Bone Generation Processes
Abstract : In order to prevent or modify bone degeneration due to rest or due to diseases such as osteopenia and osteoporosis, the modeling and remodeling of bone tissue must be better understood. In this thesis it is assumed that the primary condition leading to bone growth is a change of the chemical environment caused by transport of matter resulting from stress driven diffusion. READ MORE

7. Development and optimization of a 3D in vitro model for osteogenic biomaterial evaluation
Abstract : Despite the innate regenerative capabilities of bone tissue, self-repair is impaired when an injury exceeds the critical size threshold because of trauma, congenital, or pathological conditions. Autologous transplantation is the gold standard to reconstruct large bone defects. READ MORE

8. Differentiation of Human Dermal Fibroblasts and Applications in Tissue Engineering
Abstract : Tissue engineering applies principles of biology and engineering to the development of functional substitutes for damaged or lost tissues. Tools for the neo-generation of tissue in tissue engineering research include cells, biomaterials and soluble factors. READ MORE

9. New Roles of Filamins in Cell Signaling, Transcription and Organ Development
Abstract : Filamins are large actin-binding proteins that stabilize delicate three-dimensional actin networks and link them to cellular membranes. They integrate cell architectural and signaling functions and are essential for cell locomotion and development. READ MORE

10. Clinical, histopathologic and genetic diagnosis in osteogenesis imperfecta and dentinogenesis imperfecta
Abstract : The aims of this thesis were to investigate (1) dental aberrations in a large sample of unrelated patients with different types and forms of OI, (2) degree of dentin dysplasia in relation to type and form of OI and clinical, radiographic, and microscopic manifestations and type of DI, and (3) genotypes and phenotypes in two families with DI type II with special reference to clinical, radiographic, and histopathologic manifestations. In study I, morphological and clinical variation in the expression of DI within one family was described. READ MORE
