Mouse hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have been extensively defined both molecularly and functionally at steady state, while regenerative stress induces immunophenotypical changes that limit high purity isolation and analysis. It is therefore important to identify markers that specifically label activated HSCs to gain further knowledge about their molecular and functional properties. Here, we asse
Exposure to natural environments is thought to benefit mental and physical health. A better understanding of the interplay between the individual and the environment in relation to public health is imperative in light of the joint biodiversity, climate, and health crises. This study aimed to 1) identify Body Mass Index (BMI) trajectories in the Scania Public Health Cohort (SPHC), 2) characterise t
In this study, the spatial representativeness of eddy covariance (EC) methane (CH4) measurements was examined by comparing parallel CH4 fluxes from three short (6 m) towers separated by a few kilometres and from two higher levels (20 m and 60 m) at one location. The measurement campaign was held on an intensively managed grassland on peat soil in the Netherlands. The land use and land cover types
Introduction. Palliative cancer care in acute hospitals is scarcely studied. We therefore described and compared symptoms, care needs and types of cancer sites in 2002 compared to 2007 and analysed the relationships between these factors. Methods. The study was population-based with a cross-sectional design and was carried out in medical, surgical and oncology wards in two acute care hospitals wit
The infrastructure for the third generation of mobile telephony, UMTS, is under construction in Sweden. Within three years four operators were to build competing systems to cover 99,98 % of the population. The case of the 3G infrastructure illustrates how the sustainability issues are handled in planning and environmental management, with conflicting goals between institutional levels and compet
Fifty knees scheduled for a total knee prosthesis were randomized in two groups. Both groups had a noncemented fixation of the porous-coated implants but one group received a prosthesis with ceramic coating on the porous surface of the implant. The knees were evaluated with RSA technique regarding micromotion the first two years. There were less micromotion in the coated group. The results indicat
Problemställning: Hur kan tilläggstjänster användas för att sänka totalkostnaden i ett byggprojekt och kan dessa öka den värdeskapande tiden för yrkesarbetare?
Hur kan samarbetet mellan entreprenör och leverantör utvecklas för att gemensamt sänka byggnadskostnaden?
Syfte: Detta examensarbete ska påvisa hur inköp av tilläggstjänster görs hos ett entreprenadföretag vid upphandl
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Alzheimers sjukdom (AD) är den vanligaste formen av demenssjukdom och svarar för ca 60 % av dessa patienter. Sjukdomen har en smygande debut och den sjukliga processen i hjärnan börjar troligen decennier innan den ger kliniska symptom som försämrat minne och organisationsförmåga, språksvårigheter, problem med tidsuppfattning och orientering. Även förmågan att uBackground Prospective longitudinal studies in Alzheimer's disease (AD) that include cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) treatment in routine clinical settings are scarce. The patients vary in severity of the disease, clinical course, rate of progression and response to treatment. Knowledge about the predicted course of the disease, sociodemographic and clinical factors affecting the outcome and the i
This study focuses on the intrinsically disordered regulatory domain of p53 and the impact of post-translational modifications. Through fully atomistic explicit water molecular dynamics simulations, we show the wealth of information and detailed understanding that can be obtained by varying the number of phosphorylated amino acids and implementing a restriction in the conformational entropy of the
Popular Abstract in Swedish Evolusjon og energikonservering i en katalysator i cellens kraftverk Alle levende organismer må omforme energien i mat eller sollys til en form som cellen kan bruke som energi. Energien brukes både til prosesser som bryter ned og bygger opp komponenter i cellen. Den brukes også til prosesser som muskelsammentrekninger, celledelinger og bevegelser. Uansett hva slags celComplex I or NADH:quinone oxidoreductase is the largest enzyme complex, but the least understood energy coupling site in the respiratory chain of mitochondria and bacteria. No high-resolution structural information exists for this enzyme and the molecular mechanism that couples electron transfer and proton pumping is not understood. In mammals, about 50% of the mitochondrial DNA is encoding protei
