  2. 16. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression in the vascular endothelium

    Author : Mia Magnusson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; epigenetics; histone acetylation; DNA methylation; t-PA; PLAT; HUVECs; valproic acid; gene expression; enhancers;

    Abstract : Epigenetic mechanisms, such as DNA methylation and histone modifications, constitute one way for a cell or an organism to respond to changes in the surrounding environment. While histone modifications are recognized to be quite dynamic, DNA methylation has been considered a more stable, or long-term, modification. READ MORE

  5. 18. Avian Genome Evolution - Gene Expression, Gene Divergence and Sexual Dimorphism

    Author : Sara Naurin; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sex chromosome; avian genome evolution; gene expression; sexual dimorphism; Z chromosome;

    Abstract : This study has focused on: (i) differences in how males and females use the genes in the genome, (ii) how sex chromosomes evolve and (iii) how the evolutionary rate of genes are affected by the chromosome on which they are located on and the gene expression level they experience. A large-scale microarray was developed for the zebra finch, Taeniopygia guttata and techniques were developed so that this microarray could also be used for wild passerine birds. READ MORE

  6. 19. Global Profiling of Host Cell Gene Expression During Adenovirus Infection

    Author : Fredrik Granberg; Hongxing Zhao; Ulf Pettersson; Richard Roberts; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Genetic engineering; Adenovirus; Microarray; Gene expression; Host-virus interaction; Genteknik;

    Abstract : To investigate mechanisms involved in virus-host interactions, global changes in host gene expression were examined during infection with adenovirus type 2 (Ad2) using cDNA microarray technology. In paper I and II, transcriptional changes in HeLa cells were investigated during the early and late phase of infection, respectively. READ MORE

  7. 20. Gene expression profiling in periodontitis

    Author : Haleh Davanian Mohaghegh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The chronic inflammatory disease periodontitis is characterized by destruction of periodontal tissue, i.e. the tissues that surround and support the teeth. READ MORE
