  1. 1. Antioxidant Activity of Bolivian Plant Secondary Metabolites

    Författare :Patricia Mollinedo; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cytoprotection; Beta-carotene; TBARS; TEAC; ABTS; antioxidant activity; secondarymetabolites; Highland plains; plants; photoprotection; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Certain climatologically-adverse conditions in the basin of the Poopo Lake, located on the high plateau of the Bolivian Altiplano, have prevented the existence of a reliable agricultural system and the impact on the population of the area has been severe. These problems have been the main motivation in choosing this region for this particular study. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Measurement of sensitivity to DNA damaging agents

    Författare :Sherin T Mathew; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; intrinsic sensitivity; DNA damage; ionizing radiation; cell division;

    Sammanfattning : There is a large inter-individual variation in intrinsic sensitivity in patients receiving treatment with DNA damaging agents. Cancer therapy exemplifies this problem where patients experience varying degree of normal tissue side effects in response to radiation or chemotherapy. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Translational studies of molecular interactions in Parkinson’s disease

    Författare :Ellen Hertz; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Interactions between molecules are the basis of cellular function. In disease, these tightly regulated systems are often disturbed. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is recognized by protein aggregates in the brain of erroneously interacting molecules, directly linking the clinical picture to the molecular mechanisms. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Aquatic organisms are constantly at risk of being exposed to potentially harmful chemical compounds of natural or anthropogenic origin. Biological life can for instance respond to chemical stressors by changes in gene expression, and thus, certain gene transcripts can potentially function as biomarkers, i.e. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Discovering and targeting the mechanisms that govern age-related decline

    Författare :Xin-Xuan Lin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Aging is recognized as a major risk factor for many diseases. Thus, the identification of a means to target aging would bear great potential to improve human health and quality of life. LÄS MER
