  2. 11. alpha-synuclein: amyloid fibrils and interactions with lipid membranes

    Author : Marija Dubackic; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; alpha-synuclein; model lipid membranes; amyloid fibrils; Parkinson s disease; Lewy bodies; SANS; SAXS;

    Abstract : The second most common neurodegenerative disease, Parkinson’s disease, is linked with an amyloid forming protein, alpha-synuclein. Hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease are progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons and accumulation of intraneuronal inclusions termed Lewy bodies. READ MORE

  4. 12. Foam Formation and Starch Gelatinization with Alpha-Crystalline Emulsifiers

    Author : Gisela Richardson; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; Livsmedelsteknik; image analysis.; rheology; microscopy; amylose-lipid complex; gelatinization; dynamical arrest; amylose; starch; sponge cake; foam; emulsifier; alpha-gel; physical state;

    Abstract : In the baking industry, emulsifiers in the alpha-gel state are used for foam formation. This thesis focuses on some parts of the effects of the emulsifier: how the foam formation and foam stability are influenced by the physical state of the emulsifier, how emulsifiers change the gelatinization and gel formation of starch, and the impact that these factors may have in a true product such as a sponge cake.

  5. 13. The role of glial cells in alpha-synuclein pathology : Focus on degradation, cell-to-cell propagation and inflammation

    Author : Jinar Rostami; Anna Erlandsson; Martin Ingelsson; Joakim Bergström; Michael Heneka; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Parkinson’s disease; alpha-synuclein; amyloid-beta; astrocytes; microglia; tunneling nanotubes; antigen presentation; T cells; glial crosstalk; degradation; KYP-2407; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Growing evidence emphasizes the role of astrocytes and microglia in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Yet, little is known about their impact on specific disease processes and if their involvement is beneficial or detrimental. READ MORE

  6. 14. Glycoside hydrolases from extremophiles isolated in Iceland. alpha-L-Rhamnosidases and pectin degrading enzymes

    Author : Hakon Birgisson; Bioteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; immobilization; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; crystallization; sequencing; cloning; screening; thermophile; psychrotroph; psychrophile; alpha-L-arabinofuranosidase; alpha-L-rhamnosidase; thermostable; cold active; polygalacturonase;

    Abstract : Extreme environments (high and low temperature, high and low pH, etc.) are inhabited by a vast and diverse flora of microorganisms, which are adapted to these environments (extremophiles). READ MORE

  7. 15. New Applications of Monoorganocopper/Iodotrimethylsilane Reagents in Conjugate Additions

    Author : Magnus Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; beta-unsaturated; halosilane; conjugate addition; alpha; copper iodide; copper acetylides; organocopper; iodotrimethylsilane; Claisen rearrangement;

    Abstract : The thesis reports new applications of monoorganocopper compounds, RCu(LiI), and iodotrimethylsilane in conjugate additions. The present investigation demonstrates conjugate addition of alkylcopper compounds and iodotrimethylsilane to reactive .alpha.,. READ MORE
