  1. 1. Studies of the Neuropeptide Y Receptor Y2 in Human and Zebrafish

    Författare :Helena Fällmar; Dan Larhammar; Ingrid Lundell; Nina Mohell; Raquel E. Rodríguez Rodríguez; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Y2-receptor; NPY; PYY; G-protein-coupled receptor; mutagenesis; receptor binding; zebrafish; evolution; Pharmacology; Farmakologi; Farmakologi; Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : The G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) comprise the largest family of receptors in humans and other vertebrates. They are embedded in the cell membrane and are activated by many different signaling molecules. Activation modulates cellular signal transduction pathways and influences many physiological processes.

  2. 2. Physical properties of chromospheric features : Plage, peacock jets, and calibrating it all

    Författare :Alexander G. M. Pietrow; Dan Kiselman; Jaime de la Cruz Rodríguez; Malcolm Druett; Gianna Cauzzi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sun; chromosphere; plage; jets; imaging; spectropolarimetry; Astronomy; astronomi;

    Sammanfattning : The chromosphere is a complex and dynamic layer of the solar atmosphere, largely dominated by the local magnetic field configuration. It acts as an important interface between the photosphere below it and the hot corona above. However, studying this layer is not straightforward, as it is largely transparent in optical wavelengths.

  3. 3. Importance of the particle shape on mechanical properties of soil materials

    Författare :Juan Rodriguez; Sven Wallman; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Soil Mechanics; Geoteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Particle shape of soil aggregates is known to influence several engineering properties; such as the internal friction angle, the permeability, etc. Even if this is known, there has been only minor progress in explaining the processes behind its performance and has only partly implemented in practical geotechnical analysis.

  4. 4. Quantitative Genetics and Genomic Selection of Scots pine

    Författare :Ainhoa Calleja-Rodriguez; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The final objective of tree improvement programs is to increase the frequency of favourable alleles in a population, for the traits of interest within the breeding programs. To achieve this, it is crucial to decompose the phenotypic variance accurately into its genetic and environmental components in order to obtain a precise estimation of genetic parameters and to increase genetic gains.

  5. 5. Immunological, vascular and metabolic actions of androgens

    Författare :Marta Lantero Rodriguez; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; androgens; androgen receptor; immune system; atherosclerosis; abdominal aortic aneurysm; brown fat; mice;

    Sammanfattning : Men have higher prevalence of cardiovascular disease (CVD) but lower risk of autoimmune disorders than women. The actions of sex steroids may be involved in the sexual dimorphism of these diseases. Although testosterone, the main androgen, seems to protect against autoimmunity, its role in CVD is contradictory and disease-dependent. LÄS MER
