  2. 1. Taking Pressure of Anaplastic Thyroid Carcinoma : Molecular Studies of Apoptosis and Interstitial Hypertension

    Author : Pernilla Roswall; Nils-Erik Heldin; Kristofer Rubin; Sven Påhlman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medicine; Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma; Apoptosis; Cre recombinase; 2-Methoxyestradiol; Transforming growth factor-β; Transgenic mouse; Tumor-associated macrophages; Tumor interstitial fluid pressure; Medicin;

    Abstract : Molecular mechanisms in the development and progression of thyroid carcinomas are still not fully understood. In the present thesis the highly malignant anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) was used to study regulation of apoptosis and tumor interstitial fluid pressure (IFP). READ MORE

  4. 2. Mechanisms and DNA Specificity in Site-specific Recombination of Integron Cassettes

    Author : Carolina Johansson; Lars Sundström; Dan Andersson; Didier Mazel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Microbiology; lateral gene transfer; site-specific recombination; tyrosine recombinase; integron; single-stranded; DNA hairpin; Mikrobiologi; farmaceutisk mikrobiologi; Pharmaceutical Microbiology;

    Abstract : Bacterial resistance to antibiotics has become a serious problem. This is due to the remarkable ability of bacteria to respond and rapidly adapt to environmental changes. Integrons are elements with the capacity for gene capture by an integron-encoded site-specific recombinase called IntI. READ MORE

    Abstract : Spinal neurons are important in several aspects motor control. For example, the neurons essential for locomotor movements reside in the ventral spinal cord. In this thesis, different motor control functions are being related to neuronal populations defined by their common expression of a gene. READ MORE

  6. 4. Functional interactions of nucleic acids : in simple DNA analogs and recombinase intermediates

    Author : Pernilla Wittung; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; Developmental Neurosciences; Medicinsk utvecklings- och neurobiologi;

    Abstract : Powerful techniques to manipulate the mouse genome have had a great impact on our understanding of biology. The major drawback with conventional transgenic methods is that the genetic alteration will be present in every cell of the animal, from conception and onwards. READ MORE
