1. An Investigation of The Link Between Endocrine Disruption and Developmental Neurotoxicity Induced by Environmental Pollutants : In Zebrafish Embryos
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för cell- och molekylärbiologi; Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are known to cause endocrine disruption (ED), developmental neurotoxicity (DNT), infertility and impaired embryo development. EDCs do therefore impose a threat to humans, wildlife and the environment. LÄS MER
2. Litteraturöversikt av farmakogenomik hos barnonkologiska patienter relaterat till cytostatikainducerad toxicitet
Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaciSammanfattning : Literature review of pharmacogenomics in pediatric oncology patients related to chemotherapy-induced toxicity Abstract Background: As children are expected to live long after their treatment of cancer, it is important to reduce the risk of toxicities. Chemotherapy-induced toxicities can result in interruption or discontinuation of treatment, and the variability in toxicities among pediatric patients can be explained by inter-individual variability in pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics.

3. HgII uptake in Geobacter sulfurreducens spheroplasts : Thiols’ role in Hg partitioning and methylation
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Kemiska institutionenSammanfattning : Mercury (Hg) is a naturally occurring trace element and pollutant that is ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems. All Hg species are hazardous, but methylmercury (MeHg) is the most alarming due to its neurotoxicity, teratogenicity, and bioaccumulation in the food web. LÄS MER
4. The Developmental Neurotoxicity of Paracetamol – Evaluation of markers involved in brain development in mice
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskapSammanfattning : Paracetamol is a widely used non-prescription analgesic and antipyretic. Despite its wide usage, the mechanism of action of paracetamol is not fully known. LÄS MER
5. Do Nanoparticles Affect Neuronal Function? - Establishment of a Microelectrode-Based Assay
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemiSammanfattning : Nanomaterials are used extensively in industry and daily life but comparatively little is known about the possible health effects. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are two metal nanoparticles that have been intensively studied. LÄS MER
