1. Crispr-Cas9 – a revolutionary tool for gene therapy in human disease? This workshop will start with an overview of the CRISPR technology, its novelty and applications. We will then examine the DNA sequence of a gene and look for potential cut sites, design guideRNAs and talk about how to perform an experiment and what happens in the DNA after the CRISPR-cut. This will be followed by an exercise

Popular Abstract in Swedish Receptbelagda lugnande läkemedel används i behandling av framför allt ångest och sömnbesvär och har i det sammanhanget stor betydelse. Dessvärre kan beroende av dessa läkemedel utvecklas. Det förekommer även så kallad felanvändning av dessa läkemedel, d.v.s. användning utan recept, eller i högre doser, mer ofta, eller för annat syfte, än vad läkare har ordinerat. Sådan Background: Prescription sedatives are efficient in the treatment of anxiety and sleeping disorders, but are associated with a risk of misuse and dependence, as well as an increased risk of accidents, injuries and overdoses, both in the general population and especially in individuals with other substance misuse. The present thesis aims to investigate prescription sedative use and misuse in two ki

Popular Abstract in Swedish Cancer är ett laddat ord, och för de flesta av oss är cancern inte längre bort än hos en nära släkting eller vän. Trots den gemensamma benämningen, är cancer är inte bara en sjukdom, utan ca 200 olika som alla har gemensamt att cellerna börjar dela sig okontrollerat. Cancer är väldigt vanligt och uppskattningsvis kommer var tredje person att drabbas av cancer under sin Early diagnosis and reliable prognosis and treatment prediction of breast cancer will ultimately lead to a decreased mortality rate. This can be achieved by identification of prognostic and treatment predictive biomarkers, and by understanding the mechanisms behind early changes in the breast. The cell cycle is a closely controlled process, involving multiple components with regulation on several

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Under de senaste 300 åren har jordbrukslandskapet i Sverige genomgått stora förändringar. Detta började med att bönderna i slutet av 1600-talet erhöll en stor del av adelns jord. De fick således förvalta sin egen vinst, vilket resulterade i en rad nyodlingar och tekniska hjälpmedel. I början av 1900-talet introducerades konstgödslet och efter andra världskriget Human-induced eutrophication has rapidly become one of the most important environmental issues. The problem is largely due to the shift in agricultural practices. Farming methods have become more efficient during the last 300 years. Watercourses have been straightened out and wetlands have been reduced to increase agricultural landuse. Since the end of the 1940s, fertilization has increased dramat

Background and objective: The pharmacokinetics of mycophenolic acid (MPA) are complex, with large interindividual variability over time. There are also well documented interactions with ciclosporin, and assessment of MPA exposure is therefore necessary when reducing or stopping ciclosporin therapy. Here we report on the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behaviour of MPA in renal transplant patie

Wetland creation at large, regional scales is implemented as a measure to abate the biodiversity loss in agricultural landscapes and the eutrophication of watersheds and coastal areas by non-point source nutrient pollution (mainly nitrogen). The consequences of creating many new wetlands for biodiversity conservation and nutrient retention (ecosystem functioning) in agricultural landscapes are sti

Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are used in a range of industrial applications and have largely replaced previously used gases (CFCs and HCFCs). HFCs are not ozone-depleting but have large global warming potentials and are, therefore, reported to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). Here, we use four independent inverse models to estimate European emissions of the two HFCs

The human-environment connection in the mostly rural drylands of sub-Saharan Africa forms a complex, interlinked system that provides ecosystem services. This system is susceptible to climatic variability that impacts the supply of its products, and high population growth, which impacts the demand for these products. When plants remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through the process of phot

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett flertal produkter som framställs inom den kemiska och biotekniska industrin produceras i stora turbinomrörda tankar. Kvaliteten av produkten och utbytet av processen påverkas av blandningsförhållandena i dessa tankar. Blandningsförhållandena i processen påverkas av vätskans hastighet och dess intensitet. I olika regioner av reaktorn, impeller regionen och bulk regiTurbine-agitated tanks are used in chemical and biochemical applications to increase mixing which, in turn, affects the yield, productivity and product quality. The purpose of this work was to study the hydrodynamic influence on the scale-up of turbine-agitated tanks, commonly used in fermentation. Local turbulent flow parameters, the turbulent kinetic energy and the local energy dissipation rate,

In this study, we compare annual fluxes of methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and soil respiratory carbon dioxide (CO2) measured at nine European peatlands (n = 4) and shrublands (n = 5). The sites range from northern Sweden to Spain, covering a span in mean annual air temperature from 0 to 16 degrees C, and in annual precipitation from 300 to 1300 mm yr(-1). The effects of climate change, includi

Background: Blood lipid levels including low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C), and triglycerides ( TG) are highly heritable. Genome-wide association is a promising approach to map genetic loci related to these heritable phenotypes. Methods: In 1087 Framingham Heart Study Offspring cohort participants ( mean age 47 years, 52% women), we conduct

In order to simplify and/or improve determination of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) the clearances of iohexol, 51Cr-EDTA and endogenous creatinine were simultaneously determined with different techniques in 21 anesthetized landrace pigs. Their GFR had been reduced to about 1/3 or less of normal GFR. After an intravenous bolus of the GFR markers, their plasma concentration curves were followed fo

Context While vascular endothelial growth factor-targeted therapy and mammalian target of rapamycin inhibition are effective strategies in treating clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the most effective therapeutic approach for patients with non-clear cell RCC (non-ccRCC) is unknown. Objective To systematically review relevant literature comparing the oncological outcomes and adverse events o

This thesis is a study of configurations of identity in American mainstream comics. It focuses on how a small number of writers of Jewish descent have expressed or disciplined their Jewishness in relation to their creations. In an attempt to revise common linear narratives, the thesis presents three case studies of famous and influential comics texts with different primary foci: a chapter on SuperPopular Abstract in English The publication of Michael Chabon’s Pulitzer-prize winning novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay (2000) brought the Jewish–comics connection to popular attention. The novel illuminated the fact that many of the pioneers of American mainstream comics were Jewish. Owing to this history, and to the fact that there today exists a large and growing library of s
