   University essay from Umeå universitet/Umeå centrum för funktionell hjärnavbildning (UFBI); Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

   Author : Anton Degerfält; [2023]
   Keywords : dopamine; D1DR; sex; episodic memory; ageing; PET; MRI;

3. 2. Tritrophic interactions with Silphium integrifolium at the axis : elucidating the role of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal species on plant phenotype

   University essay from SLU/Dept. of Plant Protection Biology

   Author : Philipp Hansen; [2023]
   Keywords : Arbuscular mycorrhiza; mycorrhizal responsiveness; induced plant volatiles; Silphium integrifolium Silflower ; perennial grains; new crops; ecological intensification;

   Abstract : A fundamental understanding of the intricate interactions between crops and their environment may help guide the development of ecologically intensified agriculture. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) are root symbionts that can increase a plant’s access to soil resources and have been found to reprogram plant defensive mechanisms, potentially influencing the performance of plant antagonists.

4. 3. The effects of IL-4 and IL-13 on human airway smooth muscle

   University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

   Author : Sania Merchant; [2022]
   Keywords : Asthma; Airway hyperresponsiveness; Airway smooth muscle cells; Calcium flux; Dupilumab; Astma; luftvägshyperreaktivitet; glatta muskelceller från luftvägarna; kalciumflöde; dupilumab;

   Abstract : Typ 2-cytokiner, IL-4 och IL-13 är kända för att spela en viktig roll i airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) eller luftvägshyperreaktivitet, där de glatta muskelcellerna (ASM) drar ihop sig för lätt och för mycket som svar på direkta eller indirekta stimuli. Detta gör AHR till en avgörande egenskap hos astmatiker. READ MORE

5. 4. News Consumption and Germ Aversion is Related to Preventive Behaviors Against COVID-19

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

   Author : Axel Granberg; [2022]
   Keywords : COVID-19. Behavioral immune system. Theory of constructed emotions. News consumption. Perceived vulnerability to disease. Preventive behaviors. Vaccination;

   Abstract : The behavioral immune system (BIS) automatically activates certain cognitions, emotions and behaviors in the presence of potentially harmful pathogens. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic it is important to study reactions evoked by the BIS, to see if such reactions are related to a decreased or increased risk of the spread of pathogens, as well as if they are related to some external factors.

6. 5. GSK-3 post-transcriptionally regulates TNF-α biosynthesis in THP-1 macrophages

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Raghad Alghazali; [2022]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Few things are more fascinating than finding new interactions between previously unrelated pathways. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), a ubiquitous kinase initially known for its role in regulating glycogen metabolism, has recently been found to be an indispensable regulator of the TLR4-mediated inflammatory response.
