  2. 1. Cell motility : the dynamics of the cortical weave of microfilaments and its relation to microtubules and coated vesicles in fibroblasts and glial cells

    Author : Anna-Stina Höglund; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Actin and myosin, the major components of the microfilament system are found in most - if not all - eukaryotic cells. In muscle they form the basis of the contractile apparatus which generates the rapid, strong and unidirectional movements that characterizes muscle activity. READ MORE

  4. 2. Actomyosin in biocomputation

    Author : Aseem Salhotra; Alf Månsson; Henry Hess; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; biocomputation; molecular motors; 3-SAT; surface chemistry; actomyosin; actin; myosin II; heavy meromyosin; myosin XI; engineered myosin; in vitro motility assay; nanofabrication; alternate computing; network based biocomputation; protein-surface interaction; longevity; prolongation; surface recycling; affinity purification; blocking actin; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : There exist complex mathematical problems that are important in real world applications such as weather prediction, molecular modelling, network route optimization and more. In general, such problems are solved using supercomputers with higher computing efficiency but this also consumes high energy along with high production and maintenance cost. READ MORE

  5. 3. Role of Melatonin, Neuropeptide S and Short Chain Fatty Acids in Regulation of Duodenal Mucosal Barrier Function and Motility

    Author : Wan Salman Wan Saudi; Markus Sjöblom; Olof Nylander; Mark Berner-Hansen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 51Cr-EDTA; rat; in vivo; duodenum; enteric nervous system; paralytic ileus; parecoxib; bicarbonate secretion; motility; ethanol; HCl; melatonin; neuropeptide S; short chain fatty acids; chemosensing; Physiology; Fysiologi;

    Abstract : The duodenal epithelium is regularly exposed to HCl, digestive enzymes, bacteria and toxins, and sometimes also to ethanol and drugs. The imbalance of aggressive factors in the intestinal lumen and mucosal barrier function increases the risk of tissue injury and inflammation. READ MORE

  6. 4. Profilin:actin in cell motility : A search for profilin:actin binding proteins

    Author : Thomas Johansson; Roger Karlsson; Björn Öbrink; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; profilin; actin; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The profilin:actin complex is a major source of actin for actin filament growth in vivo. A number of proteins regulating either profilin or actin has been described since profilin:actin was isolated during the 1970s. Since then, profilin and actin and their binding partners have been intensively studied. READ MORE

  7. 5. Activation, adhesion and motility of B lymphocytes in health and disease

    Author : Natalija Gerasimcik; Eva Severinson; Victor Tybulewicz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; B cells; activation; motility; IL-4; EBV; Dock10; Cdc42; Rac1 and Rac2; immunologi; Immunology;

    Abstract : B cells can be activated by T cell-dependent stimuli, such as CD40 ligation and cytokines, which induce extensive proliferation, class switch recombination and somatic hypermutation.Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) can also induce B cell activation by mimicking T cell help through its main oncoprotein, latent membrane protein 1 (LMP-1).
