6. Knockdown of the ERK pathway using siRNA in cultured chicken cardiomyocytes
University essay from Biologi; Tekniska högskolanAbstract : The ancient South American birds called tinamous (Tinamidae) have the smallest hearts known among birds and their cardiomyocytes have previously been shown to express significantly lower levels of the mitogen-activated protein kinase ERK compared to the more modern chicken (Gallus gallus). ERK is a well-known mediator of growth signalling in the heart, especially in hypertrophy. READ MORE

7. Analysis of Map3k-dependent molecular mechanisms regulating signaling in iNKT and B cells
University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologiAbstract : Abstract Our immune system consists of two types of lymphocytes; B lymphocytes which produce antibodies in response to an antigen, and T lymphocytes which differentiate into particular effector T lymphocytes such as a cytotoxic, helper or regulatory T cell in response to an antigen. Type 1 invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT cells) are a unique population of T cells whose phenotypical, developmental and functional characteristics differ from conventional T cells (Novak and Lehuen, 2011).

8. Candidate genes and bioinformatic analysis of biological pathways for epistatic regulation of growth in chicken
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Breeding and GeneticsAbstract : Selective breeding programmes for desired phenotypes in animals provide a good resource for researchers to understand the genetic basis underlying those phenotypes. Most traits of economic importance in animals are quantitative traits, which are controlled by genetic as well as environmental factors. READ MORE
