1. LOCALISATION OF THE INTERSTITIAL CELLS OF CAJAL IN RAINBOW TROUT
University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskapAbstract : The interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are primarily placed in the gastrointestinal tract, where they play a crucial role in the initiation and control of motility by operating as pacemaker cells. They also have a role in neurotransmission. ICC’s functions have been investigated, especially in mammals, but less is known about the cells in fish. READ MORE

2. Effects of Different Laminins on Human Neural Progenitor Cells Cultured in 3D Electrospun Fibers
University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/BeräkningskemiAbstract : A low success rate of drug candidates in clinical trials, and especially in brain research, motivates development of better screening models. Hence, in neuroscience and many other fields of Life Science, development of more physiological relevant experimental cell-based models is motivated. READ MORE

4. A One-Dimensional Model For Neuronal Growth
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik LTHAbstract : A mathematical model for neuronal growth is presented, describing the process of axonal elongation. The main construction material is a protein called tubulin, which is produced in the soma (core body of the cell), and transported inside the axon to a structure known as the growth cone on its tip, where the construction process occurs.

5. Mekanismer bakom bensimidazolresistens
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public HealthAbstract : Anthelmintikagruppen bensimidazoler (BZ) har använts på många djurslag sedan början av 1960-talet. BZ verkar genom att hindra αβ-tubulin dimerer att bygga på mikrotubuli. Cellernas cytoskelett bryts då ner vilket hämmar många viktiga funktioner som exempelvis förmågan till celldelningar. READ MORE
