  1. 21. miR-34 expression levels in relation to NLRP3 inflammasome activation in THP1-ASC-GFP cells : Pilot study

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Alyssa Smith; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Inflammation is the body’s innate immune system responding to harmful stimuli. The body reacts to this stimuli by forming and activating inflammasomes. Inflammasome protein activation plays major roles seen in metabolic and autoimmune disorders, showing the importance of comprehending the processes involved. READ MORE

  2. 22. Graph neural networks for spatial gene expression analysis of the developing human heart

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen för visuell information och interaktion

    Author : Xiao Yuan; [2020]
    Keywords : single-cell RNA sequencing; in situ sequencing; graph neural networks; deep learning; unsupervised learning;

    Abstract : Single-cell RNA sequencing and in situ sequencing were combined in a recent study of the developing human heart to explore the transcriptional landscape at three developmental stages. However, the method used in the study to create the spatial cellular maps has some limitations. READ MORE

  3. 23. Patterning of the neural tube: A 3D computational modelling approach

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

    Author : Ariane Ernst; [2019]
    Keywords : gene regulatory networks; neural tube patterning; patterning of the neural tube; dopaminergic neurons; parkinson s disease; computational modelling; stem cell; GRN; Biology and Life Sciences; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s can be treated with stem-cell derived specialized neurons. In order to achieve precise directed neural differentiation in vitro we need to understand the gene regulatory mechanisms behind in vivo neural tube patterning. READ MORE

  4. 24. Quantifying Differences in Gene Networks via Graph Curvature

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Viktor Sundström; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fast improvements of technologies for the acquirement of large genomic data through single cell RNA-sequencing have led to a need for new mathematical methods for the analysis of such data. One approach of representing this data that has emerged over the last couple of decades is through graph representations, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 25. COMPREHENDING THE EFFECT OF SMOKING IN LUNG CANCER BY USING RULE NETWORKS

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Müge Segmen; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With advances in computer science, computational analytics and more specifically machine learning algorithms are increasingly being used in many fields of science. These algorithms are highly valuable for the analysis of large and complex biological data that has to be performed to convey the information the raw data contains so that it can be further interpreted.
