Abstract:
Cimetidine is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist that is among the most widely prescribed drugs in the world. In addition to its inhibitory action on gastric acid secretion, a possible role in kidney tubulointerstitial disease has been suggested. Isolated reports have also suggested an association between cimetidine administration and acute interstitial nephritis. The present study examined the effect of cimetidine on renal function in the rat. The nine rats used in this study had normal renal function and urinalyses before treatment with cimetidine. The cimetidine treated rats then developed

Abstract:
Ischaemia reperfusion injury (IR-injury) occurs when blood supply to a certain area of the body is blocked, and is subsequently followed by reperfusion. During the period of ischaemia, tissue is damaged as a result of lack of oxygen. Rapid reperfusion is mandatory, but unfortunately causes damage in addition to the damage induced by ischaemia alone. While a prolonged period of ischaemia is harmful to the bodily tissue, short periods of ischaemia interspersed with short bouts of reperfusion have protective effects. This mechanism is called ischaemic preconditioning (IPC). In this thesis, the im

Among the most prevalent and devastating types of human birth defects are those affecting the mouth and face, such as orofacial clefts. Children with malformed orofacial structures undergo multiple surgeries throughout their lifetime and struggle with facial disfigurements, speech, hearing, and eating problems. Therefore, facilitating new research in cranio- and orofacial development is paramount to prevention and treatment of these types of birth defects in humans.

Abstract:
This dissertation aims at analyzing complex problems arising in the context of dynamical networks, proteomics, and disease prevention. First, a new graph-based method for proving global stability of synchronization in directed dynamical networks is developed. This method utilizes stability and graph theories to clarify the interplay between individual oscillator dynamics and network topology. Secondly, a graph-theoretical algorithm is proposed to predict Ca2+-binding site in proteins. The new algorithm enables us to identify previously-unknown Ca2+-binding sites, and deepens our understanding

Abstract:
A fast and direct surface plasmon resonance (SPR) method for the kinetic analysis of the interactions between peptide antigens and immobilised monoclonal antibodies (mAb) has been established. Protocols have been developed to overcome the problems posed by the small size of the analytes (< 1600 Da). The interactions were well described by a simple 1:1 bimolecular interaction and the rate constants were self-consistent and reproducible. The key features for the accuracy of the kinetic constants measured were high buffer flow rates, medium antibody surface densities and high peptide concentratio
