  1. 1. Equal for all? : A study of the alignment between communal guidelines on home care services and the Social Service Act (SoL)

    University essay from Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för folkhälsovetenskap

    Author : Elise Planchard; [2023]
    Keywords : Communal guidelines; eldercare; welfare; SoL; bureaucracy; kommunala riktlinjer; äldreomsorg; välfärd; SoL; byråkrati;

    Abstract : This study explores how municipalities in Sweden interpret and apply the Social Services Act in their provision of eldercare, specifically in their original place of residence, which has been their responsibility since the 1992 elder care reform. Despite a national ambition for equal eldercare provision, municipalities have significant flexibility in shaping their own guidelines based on local conditions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Phoma i skogsplantskolor : Fylogenetisk karakterisering av Phoma herbarum från svenska skogsplantor

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology

    Author : Stina Åström; [2023]
    Keywords : Phoma; skogspatogen; multilokusfylogeni; molekylär fylogeni;

    Abstract : Svenska forskare har märkt av en ökning bland Phoma infekterade skogsplantor från plantskolor runt om i landet. Både skott och rötter från tidigare undersökning har detekterats infekterade med svampar från släktet Phoma. Denna studie undersöker isolat av svamp tagna från rötter och skott på gran och tall från 9 olika plantskolor. READ MORE

  4. 3. Determine how estrogen and TNFα impact circadian clock genes in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Linnéa Lindquist; [2023]
    Keywords : colorectal cancer; gut microbiome; whole genome analysis; estrogen; high-fat diet; kolorektalcancer; magmikrobiom; helgenomanalys; östrogen; högfettsdiet;

    Abstract : Kolorektalcancer är den tredje vanligaste cancerformen i världen. Hormonet östrogen har visat sig ha skyddande effekter och i tjocktarmen förmedlas dess effekt av östrogenreceptorn β (ERβ). READ MORE

  5. 4. Actin filaments as an indicator of impaired neuronal differentiation mediated by disruption of the retinoic acid signalling pathway

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Hanin Salloum; [2022]
    Keywords : Retinoic acid; actin; cytoskeleton; neural progenitor C17.2 cells; neuron; Coronin 1C; Cdc42 Cdc42 effector protein 4 gene ; Fn1 Fibronectin ; Wnt pathway.;

    Abstract : Retinoic acid (RA) is a well-known neurodevelopmental signaling molecule. It is reported to induce effects on neurite formation in differentiating neurons and to interfere with the actin cytoskeleton. Therefore, this project aimed to investigate the mechanisms behind effects of RA on the actin cytoskeleton of developing neurons using the C17. READ MORE

  6. 5. Effect of the cell-growth rate on the invasion and infection efficacy of Trypanosoma cruzi trypomastigotes, and the potential cell-to-cell transfer of the parasite

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

    Author : Elisa Escabia Herrando; [2022]
    Keywords : Trypanosoma cruzi; infection kinetics; cell-to-cell infection; cell-growth rate;

    Abstract : Recent studies proposed that mammalian cell lines with slower growth rates were infected more efficiently by Trypanosoma cruzi, and that cell-to-cell transmission could be occurring during infection. This open the question of whether host cell-growth rate is a cellular characteristic influencing Trypanosoma cruzi invasion and infection. READ MORE
