  1. 11. Simulations of Astrocyte Induction by Transient Overexpression

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Jonas Petersson; [2019]
    Keywords : astrocyte; overexpression; sox9; nfia; nfib; n-cor; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Astrocytes are one of the most common types of cells found in the central nervous system, and they play an important supportive role for neurons and other brain cells. In order to obtain astrocytes for medical or experimental purposes, some protocols enable the production of astrocytes from stem cells, but it is of interest to be able to produce astrocytes from fibroblasts, a cell type found in the skin.

  4. 13. Identifying Cell Reprogramming Roadblocks by Modelling Induced Pluripotency with Boolean Networks and Dynamical Systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Johannes Isaksson; [2018]
    Keywords : Stem cells; pluripotency; pluripotent; reprogramming; iPS; induced pluripotency; Boolean; dynamical systems; network.; Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Abstract : The generation of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from differentiated cells is a process of great scientific interest due to the medical potential of such cells. This process (called 'reprogramming' of cells) is however notoriously inefficient and still not very well understood. READ MORE

  5. 14. CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing in an in vitro model of a familial form of ALS

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

    Author : Fredrik Nilsson; [2018]
    Keywords : ALS; SOD1; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; superoxide dismutase; CRISPR Cas9; sgRNA; stem cell; lentivirus; qPCR; FOXG1; nestin; immunocytochemistry; differentiation; forebrain neural progenitor; Applied Biochemistry; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neuromuscular disease characterized by the degeneration and death of both upper and lower motor neurons for which there is no cure currently available. The degeneration of motor neurons leads to the inability to carry out voluntary movement and death usually occurs 3-5 years after disease onset by respiratory failure. READ MORE

  6. 15. Stamcellsbehandling för broskregeneration hos häst

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

    Author : Kristin Syrén; [2018]
    Keywords : stamcellsbehandling; häst; brosk; mesenkymala stamceller; regeneration;

    Abstract : Ledsjukdomar som osteoartrit (OA) och degenerativa sjukdomar till följd av en lokal broskskada eller mjukvävnadsskada är svåra att behandla. Detta beror till stor del på att hos vuxna individer har brosk en dålig regenerativ kapacitet. Detta leder vanligen till nedsatt prestation hos sporthästar och innebär ofta tidig pensionering.
