Popular Abstract in English Every year globally, an estimated 1.7 million women are diagnosed with breast cancer, while over half a million are killed by this disease. The principal cause of death is metastasis, which is the spreading of the cancer cells from the breast to other vital organs like the brain, liver or lungs, resulting in organ failure and subsequently death. Even though the past decMetastasis is a complex process that remains a major challenge in the clinical management of cancer, because most cancer-related deaths are attributed to disseminated disease rather than the primary tumor. Despite the significant advances in the prediction of prognosis, and therapeutic management of primary breast cancers, coupled with the substantial improvement in our understanding of the molecu

This thesis targets the Swedish labour immigration law for third-country nationals (TCNs): persons coming from outside the EU, ESS, and Switzerland. The reform, implemented in 2008, aims to positively influence circular migration. This study sets out to analyze strengths and flaws of the new system, through investigating the perception of actors in contact with the current legal labour migrant sit

Generally, simplified manual protocols can serve as a cost-effective alternative to sophisticated automation solutions. We have developed, validated and implemented a quick, inexpensive and efficient one-tube direct lysis DNA extraction protocol for the majority of our crime scene samples. The method includes one pipetting step, the addition of a lysis buffer based on Chelex beads, Proteinase K an

Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF) constitute a family of four gene products (PDGF-A-D) acting by means of two receptor tyrosine kinases, PDGFR alpha and beta. Three of the ligands (PDGF-A, -B, and -C) bind to PDGFR alpha with high affinity. Knockout of pdgf-a in mice has demonstrated a role for PDGF-A in the recruitment of smooth muscle cells to the alveolar sacs and their further compartment

1_Alveteg2021corrected 2_mod LTHs 11:e Pedagogiska Inspirationskonferens, 9 december 2021 Abstract—Conspiracy theories, labelling unwanted facts as "fake news", and coming up with your own alternative facts are trends that seem to have exploded in recent years. As academically trained individuals we might shake our heads at the folly of the general public, but perhaps we are, at least partially, t

Tumour cells can evade the immune system by dysregulation of human leukocyte antigens (HLA-I). Low quantity and/or altered quality of HLA-I cell surface expression is the result of either HLA-I alterations or dysregulations of proteins of the antigen-processing machinery (APM). Tapasin is an APM protein dedicated to the maturation of HLA-I and dysregulation of tapasin has been linked to higher mal

Alltsedan internets uppkomst har upphovsrätten tvingats till modernisering för att kunna hantera situationer där upphovsrättsligt skyddat material sprids över nätet på nya sätt i större omfattning än tidigare. Genom fildelning, streaming och delning av material via sociala medieplattformar kan skyddade verk spridas till stora grupper online med enkelhet. I takt med detta behov av modernisering på Ever since the rise of the internet, the copyright legislation has been forced to modernize to be able to cope with situations where copyright protected materials are spread across the internet in new ways and in a greater magnitude than before. Through file sharing, streaming and sharing of material via social media platforms protected work can easily be spread to large groups. As part of the eff

The position of the Catholic Church in Sweden has radically changed in the last forty years. At the beginning of the 1960s, the Catholicism was commonly regarded as a threat to Swedish cultural identity, not least among members of the ruling Social-Democratic Party. Today, the Catholic Church is an accepted part of Swedish society. This article discuss this process of change and its impact on Swed

Objective: Atherosclerosis is characterized by accumulation of lipids, cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in the arterial wall. Collagen type I (COL1), a component of the arterial ECM, is cleaved by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and known to be remodelled in atherosclerosis. We explored whether the MMP-mediated COL1 biomarker, C1M, was associated with cardiovascular events, cardiovas

Commentators on Information Systems (IS) education have urged the IS community to develop new and alternative IS curricula. The IS 2002 model curriculum has recently been revised. The new IS 2010 curriculum guidelines for undergraduate degree programs in Information Systems [Topi et al. 2010] has a curriculum structure to accommodate the education of several different professional roles within IS.

Popular Abstract in English At our workplace, at home, and on the road, we rely on software. It has become one of the central technologies on which we base our society. Yet, software is perhaps the major technology that is understood the least by the general population. Most software today is written in languages that requires the programmer to specify not only what is to be achieved, but also hoWriting efficient parallel programs is the biggest challenge of the software industry for the foreseeable future. We are currently in a time when parallel computers are the norm, not the exception. Soon, parallel processors will be standard even in cell phones. Without drastic changes in hardware development, all software must be parallelized to its fullest extent. Parallelism can increase perfor

Protein kinase B (PKB) is involved in signaling to a multitude of important cellular events and is activated by insulin and growth factors, including insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). We show here expression of PKB in pancreatic islets and in the beta cell lines HIT-T15, INS-1, and RINm5F. Expression of PKB mRNA and the presence of PKB isoforms (alpha, beta, and gamma) were assessed by Norther

Due to the small characteristic molecular size of hydrogen, small leaks are more common in hydrogen systems compared to similar systems with hydrocarbons. This, together with the high reactivity, makes an efficient ventilation system very important in hydrogen applications. There are several models available for ventilation sizing that are based on either a well-mixed assumption or a fully stratif
