2. 1. Membrane morphology and homeostasis: An electron microscopy approach

   Author : Dimitra Panagaki; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nuclear envelope bud; AdipoR2; membrane homeostasis;

   Abstract : Biological membranes allow life as we know it to exist. Primarily assembled from lipids and proteins, their morphology and function can greatly vary between species or even within the same cell. They create physical boundaries, separating different cells from each other and forming functional compartments within the cells. READ MORE

4. 2. Studies of Giardia-host interactions: role of cysteine-rich surface proteins

   Author : Dimitra Peirasmaki; Staffan Svärd; Steven Singer; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Giardia; intestinal parasite; parasite infection; host-parasite interaction; virulence factors; HCMPs; cysteine-rich proteins; secretome; proteome;

   Abstract : Giardia intestinalis is a eukaryotic parasite that colonizes the small intestine of humans and animals causing the diarrheal disease known as giardiasis. This parasite is not invasive and does not internalize into host cells but it rather attaches to the brush border surface of the small intestine disrupting the epithelial barrier. READ MORE

6. 4. The Dark side of Obesity: Multi-omics analysis of the dysmetabolic morbidities spectrum

   Author : Dimitra Lappa; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; systems biology; Obesity; multi-omics integration; biomarkers; gallstones; non-alcoholic fatty liver disease; GPCR receptors; metabotyping; bariatric surgery; self-organizing maps;

   Abstract : Obesity is one of the most prevalent clinical conditions worldwide and is associated with a wide spectrum of dysmetabolic comorbidities. Complex cardio-metabolic disease cohorts, such as obesity cohorts are characterised by population heterogeneity, multiple underlying diseases status and different comorbidities’ treatment regiments.

7. 5. Phylogeny, diversity and toxin production related to cyanobacterial symbioses

   Author : Dimitra Papaefthimiou; Ulla Rasmussen; Kaarina Sivonen; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Azolla; BMAA; cyanobacteria; cyanobionts; cyanolichens; diversity; HPLC; Nostoc; phylogeny; symbiosis; Plant physiology; Växtfysiologi; växtfysiologi; Plant Physiology;

   Abstract : Phylogeny and morphology were examined for the cyanobionts from the water fern Azolla and the cyanobacterial genus Nostoc originating from symbioses with different host plants (genera Gunnera, Cycas, Dioon, Encephalarthos, Macrozamia, and Anthoceros), the lichen genus Pannaria, and free-living Nostoc isolates from different habitats. Nostoc isolates of Pannaria formed a closely related group, but, in general, no monophyletic nature was attributed to the genus Nostoc, in contrast to the cyanobionts from Azolla which were contained in a unique monophyletic group.
