  1. 1. Hypoxia and hematopoietic stem cell control with the substance Adaptaquin : An evaluation of hematopoietic stem cell’s proliferation and differentiation in artificially induced hypoxia

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Jens Christiansen; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptaquin; Flow cytometry; Hematopoietic stem cells; Hypoxia; Hypoxia inducible factor; Prolyl hydroxylase; Adaptaquin; Flödescytometri; Hematopoetiska stamceller; Hypoxi; Hypoxi inducerande faktor; Prolylhydroxylas;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have historically been difficult to maintain ex vivo with many attempts to culture them in vitro by mimicking their natural biological environment. Providing a hypoxic environment is one way to achieve this goal and can be performed by using hypoxia stimulating compounds that inhibits the degradation of HIF1a which plays an important role in regulating hypoxia.

  2. 2. Response of foraminifera Ammonia confertitesta (T6) to ocean acidification, warming, and deoxygenation - An experimental approach

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Elsa Muller; [2023]
    Keywords : Acidification; Warming; Deoxygenation; Foraminifera; Ammonia confertitesta T6 ; Culture Experiment; Trace elements; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Ocean acidification, warmer temperatures, and the expansion of hypoxic zones in coastal areas are direct consequences of the increase in anthropogenic activities. However, so far, the combined effects of these stressors on calcium carbonate-secreting marine microorganisms - foraminifera are complex and poorly understood. READ MORE

  3. 3. Optimization of MP2RAGE sequence parameters for head and neck T1-mapping and OE-MRI

    University essay from

    Author : Ellen Börjesson; [2022-05-04]
    Keywords : Medical physics; MRI; OE-MRI; MP2RAGE; T1-mapping;

    Abstract : Cancer is the collective name for more than 200 types of diseases that annually causes the death of 8.8 million people, cancer in the head and neck (H&N) accounts for 330.000 of these. It has been shown that hypoxic tumors are more resistant to treatment than well oxygenated tumors. READ MORE

  4. 4. Functional characterization of sterol regulatory element transcription factors in the biocontrol fungus Clonostachys rosea

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

    Author : Alma Gustavsson Ruus; [2022]
    Keywords : SREBP; Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Protein; Sterol regulatory element transcription factor; INSIG; SCAP; Clonostachys rosea; biological control; hypoxia; antagonism; Botrytis cinerea; Fusarium graminearum; Boscalid; Proline; prothioconazole; Integrated Pest Management;

    Abstract : Phytopathogens account for a large portion of the yield loss in the world today. Developing sustainable strategies to limit their effect for increasing food safety and security is one of important challenge for agriculture and horticulture production systems. READ MORE

  5. 5. Periodic Inhalation of Carbon Monoxide Prior to Repeated Sprint Training – a Nuanced Way for Improving Repeated Sprint Ability

    University essay from Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan, GIH/Institutionen för fysisk aktivitet och hälsa

    Author : Christoffer Sundqvist; [2022]
    Keywords : Endurance; Cycling; high-intensity interval training; Repeated sprint ability; Repeated sprint exercise; Carbon monoxide.;

    Abstract : Background: Repeated sprint training in hypoxia has shown to be superior to training in normoxia. However, both natural and simulated altitude training are strategies that are not always accessible and expensive due to traveling or the need for advanced equipment. READ MORE
