  1. 1. The role of AmotL2 in the regulation of mesenchymal transitioning of endothelial cells

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Anita-Ann Monteiro; [2023]
    Keywords : Endothelial-mesenchymal transition EndMT ; atherosclerosis; transforming growth factor β TGF-β ; Angiomotin-Like 2 AmotL2 ; Scrambled Scr ; knockdown kd ; Immunofluorescence IF ;

    Abstract : Background During development, endothelial cells acquire mesenchymal-like properties to migrate and facilitate normal vascular formation. This process of transformation is known as endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and has also been implicated in diseases like vascular pathologies contributing to endothelial inflammation, atherosclerosis and tumour angiogenesis.

    Abstract : Phytopathogens account for a large portion of the yield loss in the world today. Developing sustainable strategies to limit their effect for increasing food safety and security is one of important challenge for agriculture and horticulture production systems. READ MORE

  5. 4. Application of machine learning for the clustering of wheat transcription factor proteins into families and sub-families

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för data- och systemvetenskap

    Author : Haleemath Sameena Sameer; [2022]
    Keywords : Global food security; Machine learning; Transcription factor proteins; K Mean WRKY; Clustering; Salinity;

    Abstract : Wheat plays an important role in ensuring the global food security. Salinity of soil and water poses a major threat to its production and it affects both growth and development of wheat in a negative way. Wheat plants uses certain molecular mechanisms to adapt themselves under the salt stress. READ MORE

  6. 5. Investigation of the role of RNA-binding proteins in bacterial gene regulation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Mikrobiologi och immunologi

    Author : Sophie Baars; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Salmonella is a common food-borne, intracellular pathogen that causes infections in animals and humans. During infection of the host, flagella serve as important virulence factors that enable the bacterium to reach the site of infection and adhere to the host-cell. READ MORE
