  1. 1. Novel fluorescent tools and techniques for 3D imaging of the cleared brain

    Author : Alex Yu Hin Wong; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: To better understand the complexity of the brain and how it becomes impaired under different pathological states, a considerably large number of brains would be needed for imaging to generate highly detailed maps in 3D. Chemical probes can offer a readily scalable labelling method that is robust, easy to use with the quick operation, and feasible for human tissue where genetic viral and toxin tracers are inappropriate.

  2. 2. Development of the Amyloid Fibril Characterisation Toolbox - New use for old dyes

    Author : David Lindberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Amyloid-β; Thioflavin-T; Fluorescence spectroscopy; YOYO-1; Amyloid fibrils; Linear dichroism; Alzheimer’s disease;

    Abstract : Amyloid fibrils are self-assembled protein homopolymers that playcentral roles in the pathology of several human diseases, most notably in progressiveneurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In AD, fibrils areformed by the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide, an enzymatic cleavage product that is naturallyproduced in human brain tissue. READ MORE

  3. 3. Spatial immune analyses in clinical cancer tissue

    Author : Max Backman; Patrick Micke; Fredrik Pontén; Johan Botling; Kurt Schalper; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immune landscape; non-small cell lung cancer; immune cells; multiplex immunofluorescence; spatial analysis; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Cancer is a leading cause of premature death and lung cancer is the deadliest cancer type, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) representing 85% of lung cancer cases. Despite promising development in cancer treatment in recent decades, overall prognosis is poor. READ MORE

  4. 4. Maturation and Regulation of Cyanobacterial Hydrogenases

    Author : Åsa Agervald; Peter Lindblad; Karin Stensjö; Ann Magnuson; Poul Erik Jensen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Biohydrogen; Cyanobacteria; Nostoc sp. PCC 7120; Nostoc punctiforme PCC 73102; Hydrogenase; Maturation; Transcriptional regulation; CyAbrB; CalA; FeSOD;

    Abstract : Accelerated global warming plus an increasing need for energy is an equation not easily solved, thus new forms of sustainable energy production are urgently requested. In this context hydrogen production based on a cyanobacterial system offers an environmentally friendly alternative for energy capture and conversion. READ MORE

  5. 5. The missing links : Towards an Informed Substitution of Durable Water Repellent Chemicals for Textiles

    Author : Steffen Schellenberger; Ian Cousins; Stefan Stolte; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Environmental Science; tillämpad miljövetenskap;

    Abstract : Durable water repellents (DWRs) that provide liquid repellency to functional textiles are part of an ongoing global substitution process. The process of substitution was initiated after DWRs based on side-chain fluorinated polymers (long-chain SFPs) were identified to contribute to the diffuse release of long-chain perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) to the environment.
