  1. 1. Chromatin accessibility analysis of spaceflight mouse brains using ArchR

    University essay from KTH/Genteknologi

    Author : Raphaël Mauron; [2023]
    Keywords : Single nuclei ATAC-sequencing; Space Biology; DNA Chromatin accessibility; Neurodegenerative; ArchR; ATAC-sekvensering av enskilda kärnor; rymdbiologi; tillgänglighet av DNA kromatin ; neurodegenerativa sjukdomar; ArchR;

    Abstract : Mänsklig utforskning av månen och Mars innebär stora utmaningar för människans fysiologi och hälsa på grund av de unika miljöfaktorer som följer av långvariga rymduppdrag. Rymdbiologiska experiment har blivit ett viktigt verktyg för att studera effekterna som mikrogravitation och rymdstrålning har på levande organismer, i syfte att förstå och minska dessa utmaningar.

  3. 2. A Single-Nucleus RNA Sequencing Analysis of HERVs and LINE1s in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Author : Stein Acker; [2022]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements that make up roughly 50% of the human genome, with retrotransposons (or transposons which retrotranspose via an RNA intermediate) making up the vast majority of these elements. Recent studies have suggested that TEs could play a role in many neurological conditions, including ALS and dementia. READ MORE

  4. 3. Energy and Circadian Assessment of a Combination Between Integrative Lighting and Daylight Harvesting

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Ribhi Attar; Omar Al Mawla; [2021]
    Keywords : ALFA; Circadian Entrainment; Correlated Colour Temperature; Cortisol; Daylighting; Daylight Harvesting; Energy efficiency; Integrative lighting; Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells; Melatonin; Melanopic Lux; Photopic Lux; Spectral Power Distribution; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study deals with the health and wellbeing of humans who work in offices as well as the energy use for the lighting. The focus is on how integrative lighting and daylight harvesting can be combined in an attempt to reduce the energy consumption while still eliciting a circadian response for the workers. READ MORE

  5. 4. Clustering-based approach for the localization of Human Brain Nuclei

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

    Author : Sameer Manickam; [2020]
    Keywords : Neuroimaging; fMRI; Human Brain Nuclei; Clustering-based approach; Atlas-based segmentation;

    Abstract : The study of brain nuclei in neuroimaging poses challenges owing to its small size. Many neuroimaging studies have been reported for effectively locating these nuclei and characterizing their functional connectivity with other regions of the brain. READ MORE

  6. 5. Optimisation of protocols for detection of free cholesterol and Niemann-Pick type C 1 and 2 protein

    University essay from Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Linda Scott; [2010]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The purpose of this project was to optimise the protocols for detection of free cholesterol and NPC 1 and NPC 2 proteins. Paraffin embedded human and rat tissues, cellblocks and cytospins of HepG2 and HeLa cells were used for immunohistochemistry to try out the best antibody dilutions and unmasking method of the antigen.
