  1. 1. Identification of intrinsic regulators in normal and malignant human hematopoiesis. An RNA-interference approach

    Författare :Roman Galeev; Avdelningen för molekylärmedicin och genterapi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hematopoietic stem cell; RNA interference; Acute myeloid leukemia; myelodysplastic syndrome; genetic screens; next generation sequencing; genetic regulators;

    Sammanfattning : Bildandet av blodceller, hematopoesen, utgår från ett litet antal av de så kallade hematopoetiska stamceller som sitter i vår benmärg. Dessa celler har förmågan att ge upphov till alla mogna blodcellstyper av de tre hematopoetiska linjerna, samtidigt som de genom celldelning bibehåller sin egna mängd. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Regulators of Membrane Fluidity

    Författare :Kiran Busayavalasa; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PAQR; LRIG; membrane fluidity;

    Sammanfattning : Caenorhabditis elegans PAQR-2 (a homolog of the mammalian AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 proteins) and IGLR-2 (homolog of the mammalian LRIG proteins) form a complex at the plasma membrane that regulates fatty acid desaturation to protect against saturated fatty acid-induced membrane rigidification. Maintenance of membrane homeostasis is fundamental for most cellular processes and, given its importance, robust regulatory mechanisms must exist that adjust lipid composition to compensate for dietary variation.

  3. 3. On diverse biophysical aspects of genetics : from the action of regulators to the characterization of transcripts

    Författare :Aymeric Fouquier D´Hérouel; Erik Aurell; Felix Ritort; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; transcription regulation; regulatory motifs; binding affinity; genetic interactions; secondary structure; sequence repeats; transcript characterization; Biological physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Genetics is among the most rewarding fields of biology for the theoretically inclined, offering both room and need for modeling approaches in the light of an abundance of experimental data of different kinds. Many aspects of the field are today understood in terms of physical and chemical models, joined by information theoretical descriptions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Genetic and immunological mechanisms regulating neuroinflammation

    Författare :Alan Gillett; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common neurological disorder in young adults and imposes both health and socioeconomic burdens on society. The cause and aetiology of MS are incompletely understood and current treatments are inadequate. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Genetic regulation of autoimmunity in experimental neuroinflammation

    Författare :Sevasti Flytzani; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects the central nervous system causing axonal demyelination and leads to significant disabilities. MS affects mainly young adults and incidence of disease in Sweden is around 600 new cases/year. LÄS MER
