1. 6. Cancer Driver Gene Detection using Deep Convolutional Neural Networks on H3K4me3 Enrichment Profiles

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

   Author : Marc Pielies Avellí; [2022]
   Keywords : Cancer Driver CD Gene; Histone Post-Translational Modifications PTMs ; Convolutional Neural Networks CNNs .; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : In spite of our current knowledge regarding the biology underlying cancer genesis, reliable methods for the discovery of cancer driver (CD) genes are still in great need. The rather recent incorporation of epigenetic markers to the cancer paradigm has nevertheless opened the door for the development of new computational approaches to the problem. READ MORE

3. 7. Targeting the epigenetic state of refractory and relapsing acute myeloid leukaemia

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Ojong Tabi Ojong Besong; [2021]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) is a heterogeneous group of myeloid lineage malignancies arising from a spectrum of mutations. AML is characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of clonal cells, which are unable to properly differentiate into mature myeloid cells. READ MORE

4. 8. Distribution Modelling of Gene Drive-Modified Mosquitoes and Their Effects on Wild Populations

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Bartlomiej Kolodziejczyk; [2020]
   Keywords : Geography; Geographical Information Systems; GIS; Physical Geography; Mosquito Distribution; Malaria Modelling; Gene Drives; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Emerging technologies have the potential to bring numerous new opportunities and solutions to the existing challenges, including addressing sustainable development goals (SDGs). Particular hopes are given to areas of the life that require our urgent action, these include but are not limited to medicine and food security. READ MORE

5. 9. Development of a bacterial infection model in zebrafish embryos with special focus on colistin-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae

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

   Author : Anna Tamara Leber; [2019]
   Keywords : Danio rerio; embryo model; microinjection; innate immunity; inflammation; Klebsiella pneumoniae; colistin-resistance; antimicrobial peptides; cross-resistance;

   Abstract : Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a promising model organism for immunological studies. A time window between the development of the innate and adaptive immune system makes it possible to investigate the mechanisms originating exclusively from the innate immune system. READ MORE

6. 10. Epigenetiskt arv

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and Genetics

   Author : Moa Lindell; [2019]
   Keywords : epigenetik; epigenetisk nedärvning; epigenetiska mekanismer;

   Abstract : Epigenetik är den del av genetiken som behandlar förändringar i genuttryck som är oberoende av förändringar i DNA-sekvensen. Det som styr vilka gener som uttrycks och får effekt på fenotyp har studerats av forskare sedan 70-80-talet. READ MORE
