1. Autophagy and senescence in primary human bronchial epithelial cells in the context of COPD
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologiSammanfattning : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third largest cause of death worldwide, with its most prominent risk factor being inhalation of smoke and pollutants. In this project, we studied two processes that are involved in COPD: autophagy and cellular senescence. LÄS MER
2. Experimental validation of PLAC8 in small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) are the most common malignant tumor in the small bowel. It is a small-growing cancer with good overall survival 5 years after diagnosis, but no full cure is available when in the metastatic stage. LÄS MER
3. Intermittent fasting’s impact on autophagy, insulin sensitivity and cortisol in a clinical setting : A Systematic Review
Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhetSammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Crystallization, optimization, and crystal structure determination of ligands in complex with galectin-8N
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionenSammanfattning : This thesis focuses on the protein “galectin-8N” which is a lectin protein that takes part in several physiological functions such as inflammation, autophagy, cell migration, and more. The project has three objectives: to observe and increase the reproducibility of crystallization of two variants (wildtype and mutant) of the human protein galectin-8N and to analyze the binding site when three different novel ligands are each inserted.

5. The roles of heparan sulfate in autophagy
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologiSammanfattning : Background: Autophagy is a lysosomal degradation process to eliminate damaged components from the cells. It also provides a survival mechanism in stressed conditions and limits growth processes. Heparan sulfate (HS) is a polysaccharide attached to different proteoglycans. LÄS MER
