  1. 1. Structural and Functional Characterisation of the Human Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Simon Gripvall; [2023]
    Keywords : biochemistry; complex; MPC; proteoliposomes; pyruvate; transport; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The metabolism of pyruvate in the cell is abnormally regulated in several human diseases, such as type-II diabetes, cancer and neurodegenerative disorders, in which the human mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (HuMPC) sits at a pivotal point. It transports pyruvate across the inner mitochondrial membrane and consists of two proteins, MPC1 and MPC2, and is a potential drug target against these diseases. READ MORE

  2. 2. Påverkar graden av insulindysreglering effekten av behandling med kanagliflozin hos hästar med ekvint metabolt syndrom?

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Ida Ivarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ekvint metabolt syndrom EMS ; Insulindysreglering ID ; Hyperinsulinemi; Kanagliflozin;

    Abstract : Ekvint metabolt syndrom (EMS) kan förklaras som ett antal riskfaktorer som bidrar till utvecklingen av fång hos hästar. Insulindysreglering (ID) och obesitas med eller utan regional fettansättning utgör viktiga riskfaktorer som ingår i syndromet. Hästar med ID får onormalt höga insulinkoncentrationer i plasma, kallat hyperinsulinemi. READ MORE

  3. 3. Factors and mechanisms associating the mobilisation of Ca2+ with the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome : A systematic review

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Maria Panagiota Theodorou; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Inflammasomes are multiprotein complexes that play a critical role in the regulation of inflammation and the inflammatory responses against pathogens. NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR-and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) is among the molecules involved in the homonymous and well-studied NLRP3 inflammasome that accounts for the release of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL) 1-β and 18.

  4. 4. Fast Parametric Registration and Machine Learning Analysis of Whole-Body MRI Volumes for Age-Related Changes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Saradh Tiwari; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Using an extensive dataset provided by the UK Biobank, this project intended to develop methods for registering whole body MRI volumes and analyzing the changes in the body due to ageing. The registration method is developed using the pTV image registration module, which employs a fast registration approach based on parametric total-variation to align volumes to the same local coordinate frames of the reference, for point-wise anatomical region correspondence.
