  1. 16. Reversal of thyroid dedifferentiation and an invasive phenotype by small molecule kinase inhibitors: an experimental study on normal and malignant cells

    Author : Camilla Ingeson-Carlsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thyroid; cancer; NIS; MAPK; PI3K; BRAFV600E; migration; 3D culture;

    Abstract : Refractoriness to I-131 in dedifferentiated thyroid cancer is a great concern that restricts radioiodine therapy. There is also a lack of knowledge in understanding the mechanisms leading to repressed sodium iodide symporter (NIS) expression and impaired iodide uptake in tumor cells. READ MORE

  2. 17. GPS for Geophysics: Glacial Isostatic Adjustment and Tests of Ionospheric Models

    Author : Sten Bergstrand; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; rheology; noise; crustal deformation; horizontal movement; time series analysis; ionosphere; GPS; NeQuick;

    Abstract : This dissertation is divided into two parts that separately utilize high precision Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite observations for inferences of solid earth and ionospheric parameters.In the first part of the dissertation, solid earth movements in Sweden and Finland are observed with GPS at a precision of the order 0.1 mm/yr.

  3. 18. Insulin and growth hormone : regulation of adipocyte metabolism during infancy and childhood

    Author : Ashraf Fawzy Kamel; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : human; rat; development; adipocytes; lipolysis; lipogenesis; glucose transport GLUT1; GLUT4; insulin; insulin receptor; growth hormone; growth hormone receptor microdialysis; obesity; Prader-Willi syndrome;

    Abstract : The aim of the present investigation was to investigate the role of insulin and growth (GH) in adipose tissue metabolism during development. Lipolysis and lipogenesis were studied in isolated adipocytes from humans and rats of various ages. READ MORE

  4. 19. Translational genomics of HIV-1 subtype C in India : molecular phylogeny and drug resistance

    Author : Ujjwal Neogi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis describes the translational genomics of HIV-1subtype C in India from its origin to therapeutic response with the aim to improve our knowledge for better therapeutic and preventive strategies to combat HIV/AIDS. In a systemic approach, we identified the molecular phylogeny of HIV-1 subtypes circulating in India and the time to most recent common ancestors (tMRCA) of predominant HIV-1 subtype C strains.

  5. 20. Electrical and Optical Properties of AlGaAs/GaAs Aperiodic Superlattices and Resonant Tunneling Diodes. Theory, Design and Applications

    Author : Simon Mang Cao; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; exciton-assisted transport; miniband; high-speed quantum electronics; optical properties; ultrafast optoelectronics; field-induced transport; irregular superlattices; nanometer-scale heterostructures; laser diodes; resonant tunneling;

    Abstract : The objective of the work presented in this thesis is to study quantum transport and optical properties of aperiodic superlattices and resonant tunneling diodes using III-V semiconductor heterostructures grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The study follows a procedure of theoretical modeling, computer-aided design and simulation, sample growth, and measurements. READ MORE
