    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Annika Jansson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The objective of this project was to investigate how organic anthropogenic chemicals (OCs) effect the differentiation of adipocytes in the human body. The objective is also to contribute to novel research in how groups of chemicals in our surrounding affect us. READ MORE

  3. 2. Characterisation and Identification of Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cells and the Impact of Different Culturing Media

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Sana Said Yahya; [2023]
    Keywords : Culturing media; Fetal bovine serum; Human serum; Cell proliferation; In-vitro differentiation;

    Abstract : Background: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells that can differentiate into various cell types and possess immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects, making them interesting candidates for therapeutic applications. MSCs are present in small quantities in tissues like bone marrow and therefore need to be expanded while preserving their essential characteristics. READ MORE

  5. 4. The role of salt inducible kinases in the regulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin pathway in adipocytes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Sulochana Kotresh Jali; [2020]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Salt inducible kinase 2 (SIK2) is found abundantly in adipose tissue and may have a role in the development of diabetes. SIK2 is downregulated in insulin-resistant and obese individuals, thereby providing a new potential target for therapeutic solutions. READ MORE
