  1. 1. Dual RNA-seq analysis of gene co-expression and immune response mechanisms in chickens infected by Eimeria tenella

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Alma Hansen; [2023]
    Keywords : RNA-seq; Eimeria; bioinformatics; gene co-expression;

    Abstract : Coccidiosis caused by Eimeria parasites is a worldwide problem, affecting chickens and leading to great losses in the poultry industry. Current vaccines are costly and non-optimal, and the parasite has developed resistance to the anticoccidials in use. READ MORE

  3. 2. Novel ways of treating bacterial skin infections: the antimicrobial peptides REI-26 and CD4-PP

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

    Author : Magdalena de Arriba Sánchez de la Campa; [2022]
    Keywords : Antimicrobial peptides; skin infections; wound healing;

    Abstract : Severe skin and soft-tissue infections can lead to septic shock and organ failure. Antibiotic treatment is turning ineffective due to the rise of antimicrobial resistance. This calls for the need for novel antimicrobial therapies such as antimicrobial peptides. READ MORE

  4. 3. Laminin-332 Regulates Expression of CC chemokine ligand 7 and 20 in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells

    University essay from Örebro universitet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper

    Author : Amanda Bolaños; [2021]
    Keywords : Laminin-332; chemokines; endothelial cells; gene expression; protein expression;

    Abstract : Cells that cover the body’s inner and outer surfaces are called epithelial cells. Endothelial cells are specialised epithelial cells which, among other things, line the inside of blood vessels. The endothelium is anchored to the basement membrane through molecules called laminins.

  5. 4. Tumör-associerade makrofagers inverkan vid juvertumörer hos hund

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Martin Kläschen; [2019]
    Keywords : tumör-associerade makrofager; TAM; makrofager; juvertumör; CMT; hund;

    Abstract : Tumör-associerade makrofager (TAM) är makrofager som under påverkan av tumörceller polariseras mot ett stadie där de frisätter tillväxtfaktorer, cytokiner, kemokiner och enzymer som främjar tumörtillväxt, kärlnybildning, invasion och metastasering. Det har konstaterats att ett högre antal TAM i juvervävnad på hund är associerat med en sämre prognos jämfört med hundar med ett lägre antal TAM. READ MORE

  6. 5. Association of inflammation markers in young adult patients with Obsessive-compulsive disorder

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

    Author : Rodrigo Navarro Trujillo; [2018]
    Keywords : OCD; Psychiatry; Inflammation;

    Abstract : Background: Previous studies have shown that patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) have elevated interleukin and chemokine levels in plasma. The purpose of this study was to investigate and validate whether a group of cytokines and chemokines are elevated in a cohort of young adult OCD patients. READ MORE
