Carbon Dynamics in Northern Marginal Seas
(2009-11-27)
The marginal seas have, despite their relatively small area, an important role in the global carboncycle. They are largely influenced by carbon and nutrient fluxes from land and a large part of the biological production ...
Cardiovascular, behavioural and metabolic consequences of growth hormone overexpression in transgenic mice
(2001)
Growth hormone (GH) exerts major effects on body growth and metabolism. GH is also important in controlling cardiovascular function and behaviour. To study the role of growth hormone in cardiovascular function and regulation ...
Cystic fibrosis in adults. Diagnostic, epidemiologic and quality-of-life aspects
(2007)
Background: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a severe hereditary disease. The type of mutation in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene will determine the degree of CFTR chloride channel malfunction. ...
Att återerövra kroppen. En studie av livet efter en ryggmärgsskada
(2005)
Traumatic spinal cord injuries often result in extensive consequences, including paralysis of the muscles from the locus of the injury downwards and a loss of sensation in the same area. The purpose of the present study ...
Odontoblast phosphate and calcium transport in dentinogenesis
(2002)
It has been suggested that odontoblasts are instrumental in translocating Ca2+ and inorganic phosphate (Pi) ions during the mineralization of dentin. The aim of this thesis was, therefore, to study the expression of ...
Approaches to analyses of cytotoxic cells. And studies of their role in H. pylori infection
(2005)
Helicobacter pylori infection causes chronic gastritis that may progress to peptic ulcers or gastric adenocarcinoma and thereby cause major world-wide health problems. Previous studies have shown that CD4+ T cells and the ...
Microbial ecology in deep granitic groundwater - activity and impact of viruses
(2009-05-13)
The deep subsurface environments in granitic rock can be studied and sampled at the Äspö hard rock laboratory (HRL) close to Oskarshamn in Sweden. Here, the groundwater is anaerobic and total counts give numbers of 104 to ...
