(Turun yliopisto, 2017-02-17)
Small RNAs in skeletal tissue homeostasis and fracture healing
(Turun yliopisto, 2023-05-27)
Long bone fracture is a common injury which could result from a fall, shock, sports injury or a disease such as osteoporosis. Fracture healing involves multiple partly overlapping steps including inflammation, endochondral ...
Implementation of modern methods to identify DNA methylation marks for episodic memory impairment and Alzheimer’s disease
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-10-23)
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and a common cause of dementia worldwide. The pathogenic mechanisms of AD are not completely understood. Both genetic and external factors, like lifestyle ...
Epigenetic regulation of bone formation - Effects of LSD1 and RCOR2 on osteoblast differentiation
(Turun yliopisto, 2025-05-09)
Bone remodelling is regulated by a complex network of pathways and factors where multiple cell types coordinate to maintain bone strength. Different regulatory mechanisms controlling the transcription of cell type specific ...
The Hide-and-seek champion: characterisation of ANO7 expression in prostate tissue and its role in cellular processes
(Turun yliopisto, 2025-06-13)
Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide, imposing a significant burden on healthcare systems. Most cases are slow-growing; however, a minority progress to metastatic, lethal disease. Despite the ...

(Turun yliopisto, 2017-12-07)
Discovery of molecular mechanisms underlying chondrogenesis is necessary to develop
therapies for skeletal disorders and articular cartilage defects or disorders like
osteoarthritis (OA). Specific properties of each ...
Characterization of Gamma-Secretase-Mediated Cleavage of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-09-10)
ABSTRACT
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTK) are a family of cell surface receptors consisting of 55 members. RTKs regulate intracellular signaling pathways that control fundamental cellular processes including differentiation, ...
Wnt signaling in the regulation of bone and cartilage metabolism
(Turun yliopisto, 2021-10-22)
Bone is a dynamic organ that is remodeled in a continuous cycle of bone formation by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts. Extensive studies have revealed that bone remodeling can be modulated by multiple signaling ...
ERBB4 as a potential therapeutic target in cancer
(Turun yliopisto, 2024-10-04)
ABSTRACT
EGFR/ERBB/HER family of receptor tyrosine kinases are frequently mutated, and hence, aberrantly active in cancer. Currently, numerous ERBB-targeted therapies are used to treat various types of cancer, using ...
Screening of novel therapeutic targets and risk alleles for cardiac disorders
(Turun yliopisto, 2020-11-27)
Ischemic heart disease is the leading cause of death globally, even though the prognosis of the disease has improved with advancing treatments. One particular phenomenon which could be treated more effectively is ...
