  1. 16. Design and production of adeno-associated virus vectors for imaging mitochondrial networks in the brain

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Elnaz Samadian Zad; [2023]
    Keywords : adeno-associated virus; mitochondria; mitochondrial networks; imaging; fluorescent protein; synapsin promoter; human embryonic kidney cells; organoids;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that function in a complex interconnected network within the cell. Neurons are sensitive and highly energy demanding cells in the brain which require a functioning mitochondrial network that is able to provide ATP and modulate calcium. READ MORE

  3. 17. Functional Characterisation of Effectors from Biotrophic and Necrotrophic Wheat Pathogens in Heterologous Expression Systems

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

    Author : Mark Melchior; [2023]
    Keywords : wheat; Blumeria graminis; Parastagonospora nodorum; effectors;

    Abstract : Effector proteins play an important role in the interactions between fungal pathogens and their host plant. Recognition of effectors can lead to localised cell death in plants. The necrotrophic fungus Parastagonospora nodorum utilises this mechanism to induce cell death in wheat and cause Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB). READ MORE

  4. 18. Predicting Biomarkers/ Candidate Genes involved in iALL, using Rough Sets based Interpretable Machine Learning Model.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Girish Pulinkala; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine Learning; Cancer; Oncology; Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia; Rough sets; Pathway analysis; Feature selection; Bioinformatics; Computational Biology.;

    Abstract : Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a hematological malignancy that gains a proliferative advantage and originates in the bone marrow. One of the more common genetic alterations in ALL is KMT2A-rearrangement which constitutes 80% of the cases of ALL in infants. READ MORE

  5. 19. How molecular diagnostics based on gene expressions can improve diagnostics in Sarcoma

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Emma Friberg; Alma Lennartsson; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Sarcoma, a rare and heterogeneous cancer type, present significant diagnostic challenges due to its numerous subtypes. Molecular diagnostics and machine learning models have emerged as promising tools to enhance sarcoma diagnosis. READ MORE

  6. 20. Investigating the expression and function of RNA-binding protein FUBL-1 in C. elegans

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Védís Mist Eyju Agnadóttir; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : RNA interference (RNAi) is an important mechanism of gene silencing in Caenorhabditis elegans, in which short RNAs direct sequence-specific silencing of gene expression mediated by Argonaute proteins. RNAi in C. READ MORE
