Mitochondria are the main site for energy conversion in the cell. Under certain circumstances, such as excess calcium retention or production of reactive oxygen species, a pore forms at contact sites between the outer and the normally impermeable inner mitochondrial membrane. The ensuing osmotic mitochondrial swelling and loss of bioenergetic function is referred to as the mitochondrial permeabili

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Målet med denna avhandling var att undersöka hur cancersjukdomar i barndomen och behandlingen av dessa påverkar olika aspekter av fortplantningsförmågan i vuxen ålder. Glädjande nog har andelen patienter som överlever cancer i barndomen de senaste decennierna ökat stadigt till nivåer som idag ligger på nästan 80%. Ökad överlevnad medf

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Rassepautasjtjåkka är ett litet bergsmassiv beläget i norra Lappland. I massivet återfinns fyra stora nischer strax under glaciationsgränsen. Dessa nischer har en gång blivit uteroderade av glaciärer, men idag återfinns endast perenna snölegor i området. Skillnaden mellan en glaciär och en perenn snölega är att en glaciär har intern rörelse. En tjocklek på cirkaSince the mid 1970s the general retreating trend for glacier in Scandinavian have ceased and some glaciers have even started to advance. This is due to a more maritime influence on the climate, which means increased precipitation in winter and lower summer temperature.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Skador på skelettet kan uppstå efter bl.a. olyckor, tumörkirurgi eller strålning. Ofta är sådana skador mycket handikappande då de påverkar kroppens funktion, stabilitet och utseende. Om benvävnad saknas eller måste bytas ut använder man sig idag av mikrokirurgiska metoder, där man flyttar kroppseget ben från ett ställe till ett annat. Tyvärr innebär detta att man skapaBone deficiencies, caused by malformations, trauma or adverse effects from medical treatments, are a clinical challenge and often associated with reduced physical function and quality of life. Autologeous bone grafts can be used to reconstruct skeletal defects, but the right size and quality of bone might not always be available and even so, donor-site morbidity might follow. A pre-fabricated or t

Popular Abstract in Swedish Fyra högst migratoriska och utrotningshotade havssköldpaddsarter (soppsköldpadda, karettsköldpadda, havslädersköldpadda och oäkta karettsköldpadda) lägger ägg i Tortuguero nationalparken i Costa Rica.

Sverige har både beskrivits som modernt, liberaldemoratiskt och djupt humanitärt; och som mer eller mindre förmodernt, halvauktoritärt och benäget att kränka svaga gruppers rättigheter. I den här avhandlingen undersöks detta svenska dilemma i en rättsantropologisk tradition, med studier av konfliktlösningspraktiker som ett sätt att förstå förhållandet mellan lag och kultur.Detaljerade data från tj
