1. Neurotoxic Effects of Dichlorophenyl Methylsulphones Related to Olfactory Mucosal Lesions
Abstract : This thesis deals with the highly potent olfactory mucosa toxicant 2,6-dichlorophenyl methylsulphone (2,6-diClPh-MeSO2) and its non-toxic 2,5-chlorinated isomer (2,5-diClPh-MeSO2). In mice, both substances bind firmly in the olfactory mucosa and the olfactory bulb, which are important components of the sensory system. READ MORE

2. The role of smooth muscle cells in calcification of atherosclerotic plaques
Abstract : Calcification (CALC) is a predominant feature of late-stage cardiovascular disease (CVD) but responsible mechanisms and its contribution to the risk of clinical events remain unclear. Formation of highly mineralized extracellular matrix (ECM) leads to progressive aortic valve stenosis (AVS) and has been identified as a surrogate marker for atherosclerotic disease burden. READ MORE

3. Knee injuries and their consequences – the impact of impact
Abstract : Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common, severe knee injuries that result in a high risk of developing knee osteoarthritis (OA) in the affected individuals. As proof of high impact forces applied to cartilage and bone at the time of injury, traumatic bone marrow lesions and osteochondral fractures, located predominantly in the lateral tibiofemoral compartment, are commonly associated with an ACL injury.

4. Langerhans cell histiocytosis : a clinical and immunological study
Abstract : Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), previously known as histiocytosis X, eosinophilic granuloma, Hand-Schüller-Christian or Letterer-Siwe disease, is a rare disease with a reported incidence in childhood of 5.4 cases per million children per year. The disease can present at any age but young children are most often affected. READ MORE

5. Interplay between inflammation and calcification in cardiovascular diseases
Abstract : Cardiovascular calcification has been linked to all-cause mortality and is a broadly adopted predictor of cardiovascular (CV) events. Rather than a mere by-product of the changing disease environment, calcification impacts actively the disease progression and pathogenesis as it predominates both in early- and late-stages, through mediating tissue biomechanical destabilisation and directly impacting tissue inflammation.
