The dual-function phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 ( PTEN) is the second most frequently mutated gene in human cancers. PTEN counteracts the functions of many growth factors, the most prevalent of which is insulin-like growth factor II ( IGF-II). PTEN expression is stimulated by IGF-II forming a feedback loop. Investigating IGF-binding protein ( IGFBP) modulation of IGF-II a
Popular Abstract in Icelandic Landnám á jökulskerjum Plöntur hafa lengi verið taldar nauðsynlegar til að dýr geti numið land en þessi sýn er að breytast því rannsóknir hafa sýnt að smádýr nema oft land á undan plöntum. Landnám bæði plantna og dýra getur hafist um leið og nýtt land myndast en til að landnám takist þurfa nokkrir þættir að fara saman. Þau verða að komast á staðinn og þegar þangað erThe classical view of primary community assembly is that colonisation by plants is essential before invertebrates can establish.

1994 infördes ett förbud mot etnisk diskriminering i svensk rätt. Sedan dess har Arbetsdomstolen prövat etnisk diskriminering i arbetslivet endast i 40 fall och arbetsgivaren har fällts endast i två fall. Detta utgör en väldigt låg bifallsfrekvens som skiljer sig markant från de allmänna domstolarnas bifallsfrekvens. Arbetsdomstolen har fått omfattande kritik om hur den tillämpar gällande lagstiftIn 1994, a prohibition against ethnic discrimination was introduced in Swedish law. Since then, the Labour Court has adjudicated ethnic discrimination in working life only in 40 cases and the employer has only been convicted in two cases.

Miljö och klimatförändringar samt mänskliga rättigheter har länge varit uppe på den internationella agendan. På senare tid har det även uppkommit en diskussion om kopplingen mellan dessa två, framförallt om hur miljöfaktorer påverkar människor. Genom föroreningar, naturkatastrofer, industriutsläpp, med mera, kan olika miljöfaktorer bidra till en kränkning av mänskliga rättigheter. Detta har internThe environment and climate change as well as human rights have both been international concerns for a long time.

BDSM är en grupp erotiska tekniker som blivit allt mer uppmärksammade de senaste åren, ur juridiskt perspektiv genom ett antal friande våldtäktsdomar. I målen har den tilltalades övertygelse om att våldet tillämpades i en sexuell kontext inom ramen för ett frivilligt rollspel resulterat i en friande utgång på grund av uppsåtsbrist.

Plast ger upphov till stora mängder avfall i världen som riskerar att hamna i naturen. Fenomenet med mikroplastpartiklar från konventionell plast beror på att det mesta av den fossilbaserade plasten inte bryts ner biologiskt utan endast vittrar sönder till mindre delar. Detta examensarbete försöker ta reda på om biologiskt nedbrytbar plast kan lösa detta problem.

Genom surfingen har jag upplevt många olika kuststräckor och vågor på jorden, men just stranden och surfingen i Sverige har fångat mitt intresse.
