  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.

  2. 2. Effect of DNAJB6 on α-synuclein amyloid fibril aggregation and dis-aggregation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Josef Getachew; [2023]
    Keywords : α-synuclein; alpha-synuclein; chaperones; DNAJB6; the unhappy chaperone; parkinsons disease; biophysical chemistry; biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences; Chemistry; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Amyloid proteins are a group of proteins with the ability to form large fibrillar aggregates, identifiable by their cross-β core structure. These aggregates are linked to several different neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s disease and due to the growing rate of people diagnosed, there is a need to combat these diseases.

  3. 3. Parkinson’s disease tremor assessment: Leveragingsmartphones for symptom measurement

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap och medieteknik (DVMT)

    Author : Malek Abdul Sater; Reem Mohamed; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive, chronic neurodegenerative disorder that impacts patients' quality of life. Hand tremor is a hallmark motor symptom of PD. However, current clinical tremor assessment methods are time-consuming and expensive and may not capture the full extent of tremor fluctuations. READ MORE

  4. 4. Cost Analysis of Levodopa Micro Tablet Dispenser for Treatment of Parkinson's Disease

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Alexander Larsson; Anna Söderbärg; [2023]
    Keywords : Parkinson s disease; MDS-UPDRS; quality-adjusted life year; incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; Markov chain; Markov model; micro tablet dispenser; levodopa; Parkinsons sjukdom; MDS-UPDRS; kvalitetsjusterade levnadsår; inkrementell kostnadseffektivitetskvot; Markovkedja; Markovmodell; mikrotablettdispenser; levodopa;

    Abstract : Parkinson's is a chronic, progressive, neurodegenerative disease. The most common treatment is levodopa/carbidopa, which suppresses the symptoms of the disease. In this report, a cost-utility analysis of the MyFID levodopa/carbidopa micro tablet dispenser has been conducted. READ MORE

  5. 5. EVOKED PHASE COHERENCE AS A BIOMARKER FOR ADAPTIVE NEUROMODULATION IN RAT MODEL OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Love Zackrisson; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptive; Closed Loop; Neuromodulation; Parkinson’s Disease; Rat model; 6-OHDA; ITC; Phase Coherence; Bayesian Model; Classifier; Spinal Cord Stimulation; Deep Brain Stimulation.; Adaptiv; Closed Loop; Neuromodulation; Parkinson’s Sjukdom; Råttmodell; 6-OHDA; ITC; Faskoherens; Bayesiansk Modell; Klassificerare; Ryggradsstimulering; Djup Hjärnstimulering.;

    Abstract : Neuromodulation, such as spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and deep brain stimulation (DBS), has been shown to modulate pathophysiological brain activity and provide symptomatic therapy for several neurological disorders, including Parkinson’s Disease. The effectiveness of this therapy could likely be further improved by neuromodulation that is adaptive, delivering stimulation more selectively, by monitoring a biomarker in recorded brain signals, which indicates the presence of a pathological state.
