Ascorbate in the ocular lens
(2006-09-27)
Purpose: First, we intended to establish a method for sample preparation for measurement of ascorbate in whole rat and guinea pig lenses utilizing ultrafiltration and high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet ...
The post-polio syndrome : studies of immunology and immunomodulatory intervention
(2005-09-02)
Late effects in patients with prior poliomyelitis were first reported in the nineteenth century and have been referred to as the post-polio syndrome (PPS). PPS is characterized by new muscular deterioration, fatigue and ...
Alterations in activity and specificity of intracellular proteolysis in disease pathogenesis
(2005-05-17)
The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) plays a fundamental role in many basic cellular processes. Virtually all events in cellular physiology include control by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Ubiquitinated substrates ...
Patellar tendinopathy : on evaluation methods and rehabilitation techniques
(2006-10-27)
Background: Patellar tendinopathy is an increasingly common overuse and degenerative injury for recreational and elite athletes. The management of this injury is often difficult and frustrating and the treatment may take ...
Characterization of ERp29 : a novel secretion factor of endoplasmic reticulum
(2005-04-29)
ERp29 is a ubiquitously expressed endoplasmic reticulum protein strongly
conserved in mammalian species. The N-terminal domain of ERp29 is similar
to the thioredoxin domain of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) lacking
however ...
Transoesophageal and transthoracic recordings of mitral annulus motion
(2006-02-03)
Maximal systolic and diastolic velocities recorded from four sites of the mitral annulus motion (MAM) reflect left ventricular (LV) performance. This thesis focus on factors influencing M-mode derived velocities in healthy ...
Child health promotion : analyses of activities and policy processes in 25 Swedish municipalities
(2005-09-30)
The Swedish municipalities are important actors that offer appropriate
environments for healthpromoting activities directed at children and
adolescents. Enhanced understanding on how such activities develop is
needed ...
Synthesis of indole and oxindole derivates incorporating pyrrolidino, pyrrolo or imidazolo moieties
(2004-11-26)
The focus of this thesis is on the synthesis of oxindole- and indole-derivatives incorporating pyrrolidins, pyrroles or imidazoles moieties.
Pyrrolidino-2-spiro-3'-oxindole derivatives have been prepared in high ...
Orthology and protein domain architecture evolution
(2006-05-22)
A major factor behind protein evolution is the ability of proteins to evolve new domain architectures that encode new functions. Protein domains are widely considered to constitute the "atoms" of protein chains, acting as ...
Pituitary autoantibodies in endocrine disorders
(2005-09-30)
Autoimmune endocrine disorders are characterised by the development of autoantibodies to specific autoantigens in the target organs. Lymphocytic hypophysitis (LyH) is a disease characterised by inflammation of the pituitary ...
