Popular Abstract in Swedish Min forskning handlar om hur nedbrytningen av fett i fettceller regleras genom att fosfat tas av och sätts fast på olika proteiner inuti fettcellerna. För att man skall förstå hur fettnedbrytning hänger ihop med att fosfat reagerar med proteiner är det bra att veta något om hur fettcellernas ämnesomsättning regleras. Energilagring och fettomsättning Människokroppen laAdipose tissue is the main site of energy storage of the body and an important endocrine organ. Knowledge of the regulation of fat metabolism and the endocrine factors secreted by the adipocyte is crucial for the understanding of diseases such as obesity and diabetes. Insulin is the main antilipolytic hormone. Protein kinase B (PKB) and phosphodiesterase 3B (PDE3B) are both phosphorylated and acti

Syftet med detta utkast är att identifiera och analysera de sociala relationer och motsättningar som uppstår i ett samhälle som förändrats helt under ett krig. Den empiriska delen bygger på observationer i Ljubija, en stad i nordvästra Bosnien, tidningsartiklar från området samt fjorton intervjuer. Utvecklingen under och efter kriget har gjort att folk i Ljubija grupperas i tre skikt. En grupp b

Studiens syfte är att undersöka om vapenfokuseringseffekten påverkar det visuella minnet allena eller om den även påverkar det auditiva minnet. Ett teoretiskt resonemang förs även huruvida vapenfokuseringseffekten påverkar arbetsminnets system selektivt. Efter bekvämlighetsurval utfördes experiment där den ena gruppen (30 personer) fick se en film på ett rån (experimentgruppen) och den andra grupp

Rhesus macaques (RMs) are a vital model for studying human disease and invaluable to pre-clinical vaccine research, particularly for the study of broadly neutralizing antibody responses. Such studies require robust genetic resources for antibody-encoding genes within the immunoglobulin (IG) loci. The complexity of the IG loci has historically made them challenging to characterize accurately. To ad

The rapid progress in scanning probe microscopy (SPM) techniques in the last decade has induced an increasing need for manufacturing advanced SPM tips. One important case is conductive and transparent tips. For such tips, only a few techniques have been proposed. which are either expensive or have poor reproducibility. We here propose a simple and cheap sol-gel technique to prepare fibers with a s

The chapter discusses the importance of the EU continuing to promote improved living and working conditions for its citizens without simultaneously risking competition between workers from different member states. The problem discussion is based on the significance of social improvements for the EU to maintain support among citizens and the challenges that arise when EU law encounters the differen

The aim of this study was to investigate use and need for assistive devices (AD) in a cross-national European sample. Data from the ENABLE-AGE research project were utilised involving very old persons in Sweden, Germany, Latvia, Hungary and the United Kingdom. Of the total sample 65% reported that they had and used one or more AD, and 14% reported unfilled need for AD. The most commonly used AD we

Entre 2009 et 2011 nous avons mené un projet de recherche à l’université de Lund (Suède) intitulé L'âge de début d’acquisition et le développement linguistique en français (Schlyter/Granfeldt) dont le but était de comparer le développement linguistique du français de trois groupes d’enfants : des enfants monolingues (L1), des enfants bilingues simultanés (2L1) et des enfants ayant le français comm

BACKGROUND: The risk of breast cancer among hypertensive patients who use beta-blockers has attracted attention. However, the evidence is inconsistent and investigation of the dose-specific associations for subtypes of beta-blockers are limited.METHODS: By incorporating Swedish national registers, breast cancer risk was estimated in women with hypertension who used nonselective beta-blockers and b

Changes in the vascular plant flora of Skåne after the latest published flora (Tyler et al. 2007) until 2015 are reported. 256 taxa are new, and 13 taxa that are new or were earlier regarded as ephemeral, are now regarded as resident. Localities of new taxa and of taxa which had 1–3 localities reported in the previous flora are also included.

Public libraries serve as social infrastructures that foster interpersonal connections and promote well-being and cohesion. In order to explore the role played by libraries in the process of social infrastructuring, we conducted a zine-making workshop with librarians. This workshop facilitated collegial conversations and provided an opportunity for participants to familiarize themselves with the c

We introduce MotionCanvas, a spatial art creation tool that integrates Generative AI and motion capture technologies into artistic interactive experiences. Existing interactive platforms provide engaging environments and allow users to interact through touch or gestures. However, they are often limited by predefined interactive content and gestures, lacking the ability to respond to user movements

Vi lever i en tid av snabb teknisk utveckling. På bara några decennier har den sociala miljön förändrats drastiskt. Vi har gått från en värld där social interaktion bestod i direkt kontakt mellan två individer till en värld där en stor del av det sociala utbytet inte sker ansikte mot ansikte utan skärm mot skärm. Denna nya verklighet har medfört en intensifierad konflikt mellan två av våra mest beWe are living in a world of rapid progress. In just a few decades our social environment has developed drastically. We have progressed from a world where social interaction consisted in direct contact between individuals to a world where a significant part of the social exchange no longer happens face to face but screen to screen. This new reality has resulted in an intense conflict between two of
