  1. 21. Hypoxia and hematopoietic stem cell control with the substance Adaptaquin : An evaluation of hematopoietic stem cell’s proliferation and differentiation in artificially induced hypoxia

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Jens Christiansen; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptaquin; Flow cytometry; Hematopoietic stem cells; Hypoxia; Hypoxia inducible factor; Prolyl hydroxylase; Adaptaquin; Flödescytometri; Hematopoetiska stamceller; Hypoxi; Hypoxi inducerande faktor; Prolylhydroxylas;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have historically been difficult to maintain ex vivo with many attempts to culture them in vitro by mimicking their natural biological environment. Providing a hypoxic environment is one way to achieve this goal and can be performed by using hypoxia stimulating compounds that inhibits the degradation of HIF1a which plays an important role in regulating hypoxia.

  3. 22. Design and production of adeno-associated virus vectors for imaging mitochondrial networks in the brain

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Elnaz Samadian Zad; [2023]
    Keywords : adeno-associated virus; mitochondria; mitochondrial networks; imaging; fluorescent protein; synapsin promoter; human embryonic kidney cells; organoids;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that function in a complex interconnected network within the cell. Neurons are sensitive and highly energy demanding cells in the brain which require a functioning mitochondrial network that is able to provide ATP and modulate calcium. READ MORE

  4. 23. Complementary porridge based on pearl millet and cow pea : the effect of traditional processing techniques and cooking methods on pasting properties and in vitro starch digestibility

    University essay from SLU/Department of Molecular Sciences

    Author : Signe Christerson; [2023]
    Keywords : Cow pea; pearl millet; traditional processing techniques; germination; fermentation; soaking; pasting properties; starch digestibility; energy density;

    Abstract : In Mozambique, malnutrition in children under 5 years is a serious concern. The condition is thought to be owing to nutritionally inferior diets and improper feeding practices on a mainly cereal-based diet, where porridges from millet- and legume-flours constitute the major staple food.

    Keywords : Fungal pathogens; Pythium; plant protection; biofertilizers; SMC;

    Abstract : This study aims to investigate the integrated effect that Trichoderma spp. and water extract of spent mushroom compost (WESMC) have towards the growth of the root pathogen Pythium spp. Both Trichoderma spp. READ MORE

  6. 25. Autophagy and senescence in primary human bronchial epithelial cells in the context of COPD

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Annie Vegraeus; [2023]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third largest cause of death worldwide, with its most prominent risk factor being inhalation of smoke and pollutants. In this project, we studied two processes that are involved in COPD: autophagy and cellular senescence. READ MORE
