  1. 1. Metabolic Crisis Induced by Antiepileptic Drugs in Patients with Mitochondrial Epilepsy : The Effect of Valproic Acid, Topiramate and Propofol on Mitochondrial Function

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

    Author : Angelica Dahlgren; [2023]
    Keywords : ATP; epilepsy; mitochondria; oxygen consumption; propofol; topiramate; valproic acid;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are important cytosolic organelles present in nearly all eukaryotic cells. The main function of mitochondria are to generate the vast majority of ATP through the process of oxidative phosphorylation. READ MORE

  3. 2. German coal exit : an argumentative discourse analysis of storylines and discourse coalitions

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Amelie Andresen; [2023]
    Keywords : German coal exit; coal phase-out act; energy transition; discourse analysis; storylines; discourse coalition;

    Abstract : Germany passed a Coal Phase-out Act in 2020 to reduce carbon emissions and to achieve the objec-tives of the Paris Agreement, at a time when Germany was already phasing out nuclear energy. Thus, Germany faces a dual challenge: not only to break its dependence on coal as a resource, but also the overlap of the phase-outs of nuclear and coal energy. READ MORE

  4. 3. Optimization of Gammasphere Data Following the Nuclear Reaction 36Ar + 24Mg → 60Zn∗

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

    Author : Paul Böhm; [2023]
    Keywords : re-calibration; Gammasphere; 54Fe; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The experiment at Argonne National Laboratory aimed to study the fusion-evaporation reaction following the collision of a high-energy particle beam of 36Ar with a stationary target of 24Mg. This paper outlines the creation and implementation of an automated re-calibration procedure for the high-purity Germanium detectors comprising the Gammasphere array used for γ-ray spectroscopy in this experiment.

  5. 4. Composite Cell Block As Control For Immunocytochemical Stains On Cytology Prepared Samples

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Mariia Anastasiia Spireva; [2023]
    Keywords : ICC; formalin; PreservCyt®; agar; plasma-thrombin;

    Abstract : Cytopathology plays a significant role in cancer diagnostics. One of the ancillary methods used for prognostication is immunocytochemistry (ICC). Formalin pre-fixed tissue blocks are often used as validated immunohistochemical controls for cytology samples. READ MORE

  6. 5. The role of AmotL2 in the regulation of mesenchymal transitioning of endothelial cells

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Anita-Ann Monteiro; [2023]
    Keywords : Endothelial-mesenchymal transition EndMT ; atherosclerosis; transforming growth factor β TGF-β ; Angiomotin-Like 2 AmotL2 ; Scrambled Scr ; knockdown kd ; Immunofluorescence IF ;

    Abstract : Background During development, endothelial cells acquire mesenchymal-like properties to migrate and facilitate normal vascular formation. This process of transformation is known as endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and has also been implicated in diseases like vascular pathologies contributing to endothelial inflammation, atherosclerosis and tumour angiogenesis.
