ImageEstrogen actions in growth plate cartilage
Project leader: Lars Sävendahl
The general aim is to clarify estrogen actions in the regulation of growth plate cartilage. More specifically to explore:1.    The functional role of different estrogen receptors in growth plate cartilage2.    The physiological role of estrogens locally produced in growth plate cartilage3.    The ...
Estrogen effects in the female reproductive tract
Project leader: Lena Sahlin
A second type of estrogen receptor, named beta (ERβ), was discovered in 1996. In order to elucidate if the regulation of the "classic" ERα and ERβ is different we have studied the expression of the two subtypes in the female reproductive tract during different hormonal conditions. In addition, we ...
Implantation of stem cells and embryonic sensory neurons for a replacement strategy of the auditory nerve.
Project leader: Petri Olivius
Damage or disease of the peripheralauditory system, i.e. sensorineural hearing loss involving the sensory haircells in the cochlea and/or their neuronal connections, is the most commonhearing disorder. The disorder often causes serious physical and socialdisabilities. Further, due to lack of ...
Influence of environmental pollutants on the developing female reproductive system using ovarian granulosa cells as a model 
Project leader: Irina Svechnikova
Environmental pollution can influence the development of fetus directly or indirectly by disturbing of the endocrine status of the pregnant woman. A number of steroidogenic enzymes and other modulators of hormone production in females might be affected by endocrine disruptors (EDs). Many studies ...
ImageIn utero transplantation of fetal mesenchymal stem cells
Project leader: Cecilia Götherström
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are present in various tissues of fetal and adult origin. I have previously isolated and characterised MSC from human fetal 1st trimester livers and observed that they have properties favourable for transplantation. They differentiate into bone, cartilage and fat, and ...
ImageNew treatment strategies of growth failure caused by chronic inflammation
Project leader: Lars Sävendahl
The general aim is to clarify the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines as mediators of the growth retardation most often seen in patients with chronic inflammatory diseases. We have established experimental models well suited to clarify cytokine actions in growth plate cartilage. More specifically we ...
ImagePrevention of growth retardation and infertility caused by chemotherapy
Project leader: Lars Sävendahl
Bortezomib (VelcadeTM) is an emerging promising anti-cancer drug in clinical practice, and it is of great importance to perform a detailed analysis of the undesired side-effects and how these can be prevented.Our specific aims are to:I.       Identify non-cancerous tissues affected during ...
Stationary and migratory cell phases of childhood malignant neuroectodermal tumours.
Project leader: Lars Ährlund-Richter
Stem cell derived human cellular microenvironment applied as an in vivo experimental platform for studies on human cancer -Stationary and migratory cell phases of childhood malignant neuroectodermal tumours.This project explores aspects of childhood cancer development, which we believe is ...
Targeting tumor cell energy metabolism for improved therapy
Project leader: Maria Shoshan
Tumor progression correlates with increasingly aberrant energy metabolism. i.e., production of ATP for numerous processes for syntheses, grwoth, motility etc. The major alteration is a switch toward greater dependence on glycolysis (the Warburg effect). This contributes to the increased demand for ...
