  1. 1. Biological Age and Risk of Developing Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Karolina Gustavsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Biological age BA ; PhenoAge; Klemera Doubal Method KDM ; Homeostatic Dysregulation HD ; Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias ADRD ; Biologisk ålder; PhenoAge; Klemera Doubal-metod; Homeostatic Dysregulation HD ; Alzheimers sjukdom och relaterade demenssjukdomar ADRD ;

    Abstract : Biologisk ålder (BA) har nyligen fått ökad uppmärksamhet att fördjupa förståelsen kring åldersrelaterade sjukdomar och dess behandlingar, eftersom åldersrelaterade förändringar utgör en grundläggande gemensam nämnare för dessa tillstånd. Medan kronologisk ålder (CA) mäts i år, kan biologisk ålder (BA) mätas på många olika sätt. READ MORE

  3. 2. Single-cell RNA-seq mapping of chicken leukocytes : An investigation into single-cell transcriptomics as an alternative to traditional immunological methods within non-traditional model organisms
