  • Familial risks of breast and prostate cancers: Does the definition of the at risk period matter?
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Cancer. - : Elsevier BV. - 1879-0852 .- 0959-8049. ; 46:4, s. 752-757

    • Aim: 'Being at familial risk' may have different connotations in studies on familial risk of cancer. The register-based definition of a family history considers individuals with an affected relative at familial risk independently of the family member's diagnostic time. Alternatively, the individuals are classified to be at familial risk only after the diagnosis date of their relative, relevant to clinical counselling and screening situations. The aim of this study was to compare familial breast and prostate cancer risks according to the two definitions. Patients and methods: The nationwide Swedish Family-Cancer Database with information on cancers from 1958 to 2006 was used to calculate the hazard ratio of breast and prostate cancers according to family history using Cox regression. Family history was defined considering the number and type of affected relatives and the relative's diagnostic age, respectively. Individuals were considered at familial risk from their entry to the study or, alternatively, from the diagnostic time of the relative. Results: Hazard ratios were equal whether individuals were considered at risk independent of the relative's diagnostic date or only after the relative's diagnostic date. Conclusion: These results indicate that studies on familial breast or prostate cancer risk which do not take the relative's diagnosis date into account are applicable to screening and clinical counselling situations. The estimates according to the register-based definition are based on larger numbers of patients, which may be crucial for analysis of small groups such as families of multiple cases.

  • The hidden meanings of metaphors in family therapy
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Psychology. - 0036-5564 .- 1467-9450. ; 41:3, s. 217-224
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This study investigates how two therapists' beliefs and practices influence the therapeutic process when they organize social interaction according to a metaphor of a royal family. The therapeutic process is described through the case of a boy called Pelle. He comes to therapy together with his family. It is shown how the therapists collaborate in the process of implementing the worldview of the predefined normative standard for family life. In the short term the therapists' use of the metaphor can be seen as an intervention to accomplish immediate change in a non-threatening way. In the long term the cost of using the metaphor was that the mother got a confirmation about herself as a less powerful parent and the child got an image of being a failure. This study points out that metaphors as therapeutic tools have to be analyzed critically before they are used or more specifically the therapists have to examine what kind of values and meanings are hidden in the metaphor and who will gain and loose if it is used as an intervention.

  • Tuning of dielectric properties and magnetism of SrTiO3 by site-specific doping of Mn
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: Physical Review B. Condensed Matter and Materials Physics. - 1098-0121 .- 1550-235X. ; 84:12, s. 125124-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Combining experiments with first-principles calculations, we show that site-specific doping of Mn into SrTiO(3) has a decisive influence on the dielectric properties of these doped systems. We find that phonon contributions to the dielectric constant invariably decrease sharply on doping at any site. However, a sizable, random dipolar contribution only for Mn at the Sr site arises from a strong off-centric displacement of Mn in spite of Mn being in a non-d(0) state; this leads to a large dielectric constant at higher temperatures and gives rise to a relaxor ferroelectric behavior at lower temperatures. We also investigate magnetic properties in detail and critically reevaluate the possibility of a true multiglass state in such systems.

  • The time-course of DNA fragmentation in the choroid plexus and the CA1 region following transient global ischemia in the rat brain. The effect of intra-ischemic hypothermia
  • 1999
  • Ingår i: Neuroscience. - 0306-4522. ; 93:2, s. 537-549
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The time-course of DNA fragmentation in the CA1 region of the hippocampus and the choroid plexus was studied following induction of transient forebrain ischemia under lethal normothermic (37°C), or sublethal hypothermic (33°C) conditions. Oligonucleosomal- and high-molecular-weight DNA fragmentation were analysed by conventional agarose gel electrophoresis and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, respectively. DNA breaks were visualized by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotin-deoxyuridinetriphosphate nick-end labeling method. At 48h of recovery following normothermic ischemia, in situ labeling of DNA breaks were widespread in medial CA1 and high-molecular-weight DNA cleavage was seen. In contrast, at the same time-point in lateral CA1, many pyknotic but few cells displaying in situ labeling of DNA breaks were observed. Major oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation was not seen until 72h of recovery. Following hypothermic ischemia, DNA fragmentation was absent in CA1. DNA fragmentation was seen in the choroid plexus at 24h of recovery following normothermic ischemia, which was diminished by 48h of recovery.In conclusion, oligonucleosomal and high-molecular-weight DNA fragmentation at 10-50 kilobase pairs, occur in CA1 after morphological signs, and acidophilia signifying neurodegeneration appear. DNA fragmentation and cell death in the choroid plexus precede neuronal death in CA1 and may play a causative role.

  • Mean-field theory approach to three-dimensional nematic phase transitions in microtubules
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Physical Review E. - 2470-0045. ; 108:6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Microtubules are dynamic intracellular fibers that have been observed experimentally to undergo spontaneous self-alignment. We formulate a three-dimensional (3D) mean-field theory model to analyze the nematic phase transition of microtubules growing and interacting within a 3D space, then make a comparison with computational simulations. We identify a control parameter Geff and predict a unique critical value Geff=1.56 for which a phase transition can occur. Furthermore, we show both analytically and using simulations that this predicted critical value does not depend on the presence of zippering. The mean-field theory developed here provides an analytical estimate of microtubule patterning characteristics without running time-consuming simulations and is a step towards bridging scales from microtubule behavior to multicellular simulations.

  • Clinical and Biological Aspects of Cardiovascular microRNA
  • 2013
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death in high-income parts of the world and is caused mainly by atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries. The rupture of an atherosclerotic plaque with subsequent platelet activation and clot formation can lead to myocardial infarction (MI). Atherosclerosis is a complex process, which involves the accumulation and oxidation of low-density lipoprotein in the vessel wall followed by endothelial inflammation, infiltration of monocytes and proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells towards the vessel lumen. microRNA (miRNA) is a class of short non-coding RNA which regulate gene expression through part-complimentary binding to target sites preferably within the 3’-UTR of specific mRNAs. miRNAs have pervasive roles in animal biology and aberrant expression of miRNAs have been linked with a wide spectrum of human disease. Additionally, the tissue specific manner of miRNA expression together with remarkable stability in plasma and evidence of release of miRNA from stressed or apoptotic cells have made miRNAs interesting as biomarkers for various diseases. The aim of this thesis was (1) to assess the diagnostic and prognostic value of cardiac-enriched miRNAs in the context of coronary artery disease, (2) to screen for differences in miRNA content in platelets from myocardial infarction patients and elucidate a potential paracrine function for platelet miRNA and (3) to investigate the role of miRNAs in regulating endothelial inflammation in response to extracellular ATP/UTP. In Study I and II, we found that cardiac-enriched miRNAs are increased 100-3000 fold within 12 h following onset of symptoms in patients with myocardial infarction and that the levels of two specific miRNAs, miR-208b and-499-5p, could be used to discriminate MI-patients from non-MI patients and were associated with increased risk of death and development of heart failure. In Study III, we found differentially expressed platelet miRNAs in MI patients compared to healthy controls using RNA-sequencing. Release of miRNAs upon platelet activation, as well as microparticle-dependent transfer of functional platelet-derived miRNA to endothelial cells was also shown in vitro. In Study IV, we showed that the effects of ATP and UTP on cell surface expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and leukocyte adhesion is mediated in part by miR-22 in endothelial cells. In conclusion, the levels of circulating cardiac-enriched miRNA have diagnostic and prognostic value in the context of coronary artery disease, platelet-derived miRNA can act as paracrine mediators in endothelial cells and miR-22 plays an anti-inflammatory role in the endothelium.
