  1. 11. A Single-Nucleus RNA Sequencing Analysis of HERVs and LINE1s in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's Disease

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i bioinformatik

    Författare :Stein Acker; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile genetic elements that make up roughly 50% of the human genome, with retrotransposons (or transposons which retrotranspose via an RNA intermediate) making up the vast majority of these elements. Recent studies have suggested that TEs could play a role in many neurological conditions, including ALS and dementia. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Unraveling gene gene interactions in rheumatoid arthritis

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Saad Salman Khan Lodhi; [2021]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systematic autoimmune disorder characterized by a persistent joint inflammation. A subset of HLA-DRB1 alleles known as shared epitope (SE) are the strongest genetic risk factors to develop anti-citrullinated protein antibody positive (ACPA-positive) RA. LÄS MER

  4. 13. The Consequentialist Strikes Back : A Discussion of Boonin’s Response to the Nonidentity Problem and Why a Consequentialist Approach is Preferable

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Filosofiska institutionen

    Författare :Artemis Lumarker; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Nonidentity problem; Boonin; Parfit; Repugnant Conclusion; consequentialism;

    Sammanfattning : The nonidentity problem is the issue of how to justify the belief that it is wrong to bring a person into existence if they would have a flawed life, though still worth living, instead of bringing another, nonidentical person into existence who would have a better life. To have an impaired life that is worth living seems to be a good existence, at least for the person in question. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Är adalimumab en bra behandling mot reumatoid artrit i jämförelse med andra biologiska läkemedel?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för kemi och biomedicin (KOB)

    Författare :Salim Awell Yasin; [2021]
    Nyckelord :RA; Adalimumab; DAS-28; ACR respons;

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease, which causes joint inflammation. Different environmental and genetic factors such as smoking, anti-citrullinated protein antibody, rheumatoid factor, and certain MHC-alleles cause RA. It affects mostly women and it is characterised by joint swelling, pain, tiredness, and stiffness. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Evolution of flowering time in a changing environment

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Emmy Sköld; [2021]
    Nyckelord :flowering time; evolution; Arabidopsis thaliana; environmental effects; adaptations; flowering phenology;

    Sammanfattning : How come the same species of plants can naturally occur under various conditions in different parts of the world? A plant's ability to adapt in response to a changing climate hinges on the presence of genetic variation in traits, such as flowering phenology. In this study, I examine whether flowering start varies genetically within populations and compare this variation to differences between populations. LÄS MER
