  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. Modelling of gene regulatory and spatial mechanisms which pattern the early human neural tube

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Fredrik Bertilsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Biophysics; systems biology; gene regulatory networks; neural tube; isthmic organizer; midbrain-hindbrain boundary; WNT; FGF; morphogens; reaction-diffusion; finite-difference; 3D modelling; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Tissue patterning during development is thought to be driven largely by gene regulatory responses to spatial gradients of molecular signals, known as morphogens. In this thesis, early patterning of the human neural tube is studied using two different gene regulatory network models. READ MORE

  4. 3. The role of P25 interacting transcriptional regulator VIP1 in activation of transcription.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Asma Kanon Hashi; [2022]
    Keywords : Rhizomania; BNYVV; expression clones; virulence factor P25; transcription; transient gene expression; VIP1 plant protein;

    Abstract : Rhizomania, caused by beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV), has been considered as an economically important disease around the world because of the extreme reduction in sugar beet yield and sugar content in affected plants. The spread of rhizomania all over the world, including the emergence of resistance- breaking virus isolates, have been become a major concern for the plant pathologists and plant breeders aiming at improving sugar beet resistance to   BNYVV as well as better understanding sugar beet-virus interactions during disease development.

  5. 4. Investigation of the gene expression landscape of human skin wounds

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Yuen Ting Cheung; [2021]
    Keywords : bioinformatics; wound healing; lncRNA; long non-coding RNA;

    Abstract : Wound healing is a complex physiological process. Effective wound healing enables the skin barrier function to be restored once the skin is injured. However, due to the complex nature of wounds, the mechanisms underlying tissue repair are still poorly understood. READ MORE

  6. 5. Dual RNA-seq analysis of host-pathogen interaction in Eimeria infection of chickens

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Arnar Kári Sigurðarson Sandholt; [2020]
    Keywords : Dual RNA-seq; Bioinformatics; Eimeria tenella; Gene co-expression networks; Chicken;

    Abstract : Eimeria tenella is a eukaryotic, intracellular parasite that, along with six other Eimeria species, causes coccidiosis in chickens. This disease can result in weight loss or even death and is estimated to cause 2 billion euros of damages to the chicken industry each year. While much is known of the life cycle of E. READ MORE
