Protein homeostasis in cells, proteostasis, is maintained through several integrated processes and pathways and its dysregulation may mediate pathology in many diseases including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Oxidative stress, heat shock proteins, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and its response, i.e. unfolded protein response (UPR), play key roles in proteostasis but their involvement in t

Why should moral philosophers, moral psychologists, and machine ethicists care about computational complexity? Debates on whether artificial intelligence (AI) can or should be used to solve problems in ethical domains have mainly been driven by what AI can or cannot do in terms of human capacities. In this paper, we tackle the problem from the other end by exploring what kind of moral machines areWhy should moral philosophers, moral psychologists, and machine ethicists care about computational complexity?

Popular Abstract in English Does subjectivism in value theory — the view that value is grounded on attitudes — imply that when we think and talk about what is good and bad we must necessarily be thinking and talking about our desires and other attitudes? Does value subjectivism entail that evaluative utterances are reports or expressions of the speaker’s attitude? Are subjectivists committed to anThe thesis examines a specific way of understanding the subjectivist position in value theory according to which subjectivism is the view that value is grounded on attitudes. It is argued that this should be seen as a second-order claim about the nature of value although with pluralistic implications on the substantial, first-order level. Subjectivist analyses of final and intrinsic value and of r

Fluxes of methane, CH4, were measured with the eddy covariance (EC) method at a small boreal lake in Sweden. The mean CH4 flux during the growing season of 2013 was 20.1 nmol m−2 s−1 and the median flux was 16 nmol m−2 s−1 (corresponding to 1.7 mmol m−2 d−1 and 1.4 mmol m−2 d−1). Monthly mean values of CH4 flux measured with the EC method were compared with fluxes measured with floating chambers (

Autoantibody-mediated diseases comprise a heterogeneous group of disorders in which the pathogenic potential of autoantibodies has been clearly demonstrated. In general, their treatment relies on the long-term use of systemic corticosteroids and other immunosuppressants that are associated with considerable adverse reactions. EndoS, an endoglycosidase derived from Streptococcus pyogenes, specifica

Föreliggande undersökning syftar till att utvärdera möjligheten att använda bioimpedansspektrometri för att mäta tumör- och vävnadsrespons på strålterapi. Bioimpedansmätningar utförda med CythorLab ™ utrustade med en signalgenerator med en känd högutgångsimpedans och signalmätanordning som kan mäta spänningen som appliceras av generatorn. Styrenheten utlöser signalgeneratorn som genererar en MLS-sThe present investigation aims to evaluate the possibility of using bio-impedance spectrometry to measure tumour and tissue response to radiation therapy. Bio -impedance measurements performed with CythorLab™ equipped with a signal generator with a known high output impedance and signal measuring device able to measure the voltage applied by the generator. The control unit triggers the signal gene
