  1. 1. Functional analysis of the proteasome in eukaryotic organisms

    Författare :Marianthi Sakellari; Efstathios S. Gonos; Allan Sirsjö; Richard G. A. Faragher; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Proteasome; Proteasome activation; Protein synthesis inhibition; Hsp70; Hsp90; Proteostasis; Aging; Alzheimer’s disease; Caenorhabditis elegans; Lifespan extension; SKN-1;

    Sammanfattning : Proteasome degradation machinery is responsible for the turnover of a huge variety of normal and abnormal proteins, thus regulating a plethora of cellular processes. Aging is an inevitable biological process that is characterized by reduced proteasome function that leads to proteotoxic stress. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Protein Damage Control during Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation: Role of the Proteasome

    Författare :Malin Hernebring; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Embryonic Stem Cells; Proteasome; Protein Carbonylation; Advanced Glycation End products; Cell Differentiation; Oxidative stress; Aging; RNAi;

    Sammanfattning : During the lifespan of organisms ranging from yeast to humans, there is an accumulation of macromolecular damage. However, these organisms produce youthful progeny with low damage levels. This thesis focuses on how this is accomplished. LÄS MER

  3. 3. The ubiquitin-proteasome system during proteotoxic stress

    Författare :Victoria Menéndez Benito; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Ubiquitin; proteasome; green fluorescent protein GFP ; degradation; inhibitor; neurodegeneration; stress;

    Sammanfattning : The dual function of the ubiquitin-proteasome system in protein quality control and as a master regulator of vital cellular processes places the system in a delicate position. This might be particularly relevant under patho-physiological conditions such as endoplasmic reticulum stress, which provoke the accumulation of aberrant proteins. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Genetic and Molecular Studies of Two Hereditary Skin Disorders

    Författare :Johanna Dahlqvist; Niklas Dahl; Anders Vahlquist; Juha Kere; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Monogenic disorder; autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis; KLICK syndrome; Ichthyin; POMP; proteasome; epidermal differentiation; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Clinical Genetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Sammanfattning : Monogenic disorders, i.e., disorders caused by mutations in a single gene, are rare and clinically heterogeneous conditions. Identification of the genetic cause of monogenic traits can bring new insights into molecular pathways and disease mechanisms. LÄS MER

  5. 5. HAMLET - In vivo effects and mechanisms of tumor-cell death

    Författare :Lotta Gustafsson; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biomedicinska vetenskaper; Biomedical sciences; proteasome stress; HAMLET; human milk; tumor-cell death; clinical trial; rat xenograft model; skin papilloma; glioblastoma;

    Sammanfattning : HAMLET (human alpha-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells), a molecular complex derived from human milk, is an interesting new tool in cancer research since it induces programmed cell death in tumor cells while leaving normal, differentiated cells unharmed. The in vivo effects of HAMLET were studied in a rat xenograft model of human glioblastoma. LÄS MER
