  1. 1. The Quantitative Expression of Transport Proteins SLC38A1-11 in Nerve Cell Development

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Maryam Dinar; [2023]
    Keywords : SLC38A1; SNAT1; SLC38A2; SNAT2; SLC38A3; SNAT3; SLC38A4; SNAT4; SLC38A5; SNAT5; SLC38A6; SNAT6; SLC38A7; SNAT7; SLC38A8; SNAT8; SLC38A9; SNAT9; SLC38A10; SNAT10; SLC38A11; SNAT11; SLC; SLC38; SNATs; SNAT; RT-qPCR; GABA; glutamine; glutamate;

    Abstract : Solute carriers consist of over 400 genes and 66 subfamilies and are the largest group of membrane bound transporters. They facilitate movement of many molecules through cells and organelles and are crucial for upholding many key functions in the human body. They are also involved in the pathophysiology of several diseases. READ MORE

  3. 2. High tide flooding in near future projections for popular travel destinations

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : David Ebert; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography and Ecosystem analysis; High tide flooding; Projections; Adaptation and mitigation strategies; Lunar precession; Nodal cycle; Cycle of lunar perigee; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : High tide flooding (HTF) is becoming more common in coastal regions of the United States, although this phenomenon remains largely undocumented in published literature from other parts of the world. No matter the emissions scenario over the next decades, sea level rise (SLR) is projected to continue worldwide until at least the end of the 21st century, continually pushing the frequency and severity of HTF.

  4. 3. Effect of seminal plasma on the acrosome status of cryopreserved stallion spermatozoa

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Michaela Toni; [2021]
    Keywords : acrosome; cryopreservation; artificial insemination; seminal plasma; spermatozoa; equine; stallion; “good freezer”; “bad freezer”; acrosome status; capacitation;

    Abstract : Today breeding through artificial insemination (AI) with cryopreserved semen is frequently used in several domestic species, but its use is more problematic in horses, partly because of reduced sperm quality and partly because the timing of insemination relative to ovulation is more crucial for frozen semen than for fresh. Therefore, improvements in the freezing technique are needed. READ MORE

  5. 4. Functional characterization of the SLC38 transporters SNAT6, SNAT8 and SNAT10 using CRISPR-Cas9 knockout in vitro

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för farmaceutisk biovetenskap

    Author : Alfred Holmberg; [2020]
    Keywords : SNAT6; SNAT8; SNAT10; SLC38; SLC38a6; SLC38a8; SLC38a10; CRISPR-Cas9; crispr; glutamate-glutamine cycle; ggc; glutamate; glutamine; gaba; hek293;

    Abstract : There are currently over 430 known SLC transporters, over 30% of which have an unknown function. Compared to other transporter gene families, the SLC genes are relatively understudied with many orphan genes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Dynamic Modelling and Optimal Control of Autonomous Heavy-duty Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Kartik Seshadri Chari; [2020]
    Keywords : Autonomous driving; Dynamic bicycle model; Magic Formula; Model matching; MPC; Clothoids; Autonom körning; Fordonsmodell; Modellanpassning; MPC; Klothoider;

    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles have gained much importance over the last decade owing to their promising capabilities like improvement in overall traffic flow, reduction in pollution and elimination of human errors. However, when it comes to long-distance transportation or working in complex isolated environments like mines, various factors such as safety, fuel efficiency, transportation cost, robustness, and accuracy become very critical.
