  1. 16. Differential Thyroid Hormone Signaling in Human Astrocytes and Microglia

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

    Author : Renée Levisson; [2021]
    Keywords : Thyroid hormones; Signaling; Astrocytes; Microglia;

    Abstract : Thyroid hormones (THs) play a fundamental role in brain function during development and adulthood. THs are essential regulators of neurogenesis, cell maturation and migration as well myelination and synaptogenesis. READ MORE

  3. 17. Effects of skin care ingredients on keratinocytes : - Interplay between osmotic stress, cell viability, and gene expression towards increased understanding of keratinocyte differentiation

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Author : Kassem Awad; [2021]
    Keywords : Cell viability; Keratinocytes; Osmotic stress; qPCR; Skin; Water activity;

    Abstract : The epidermis is composed of multiple cell strata where viable keratinocytes, in the basal layer (stratum basale (SB)), go through a range of steps with the final stage of being dead corneocytes in the outer most layer (stratum corneum (SC)). The differentiation, which can be thought of as programmed cell death, include several key processes that are essential for an intact skin barrier.

  4. 18. Causality in Coexpression

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Carolina Barros; [2020]
    Keywords : bioinformatics; computational biology; genomics; causality; genetics; coexpression;

    Abstract : One of the main goals of genetics has been to understand the link between genotype and phenotype. Using yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as our model organism, we take a closer look at the connection between genetic variation and gene expression to learn more about the mechanisms of gene regulation.

  5. 19. A spatial analysis of Norwegian spruce cone developmental stages

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Alina Orozco; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Norway spruce Picea abies is an economically important export to the Swedish economy. There are a number of environmental and endogenous factors that impact the generation time of this species meaning that it can take 20-25 years for a tree to mature. READ MORE

  6. 20. Systematic comparison of gene regulatory datasets using experimentally validated enhancers

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

    Author : Xue Dong; [2020]
    Keywords : Capture Hi-C; ChIP-seq; enhancer; promoter-enhancer interactions; eQTLs;

    Abstract : Promoter-enhancer interactions are essential for gene regulating, Capture Hi-C is a chromosome conformation capture method to map promoter-enhancer interactions at high resolution. We have Capture Hi-C data forGM12878 cells, immortalized primary B lymphocytes, in three replicates. READ MORE
