2. 1. Studies on arachidonic acid metabolism in normal and malignant hematopoietic cells

   Author : Stina Feltenmark; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the metabolism of arachidonic acid via the 5-lipoxygenase- and the 15-lipoxygenase-1 pathways in normal and malignant hematopoietic cells. The first part of the thesis (papers I & II) describes the expression of genes involved in arachidonic acid metabolism and the capacity to generate leukotriene (LT) B4 via the 5-lipoxygenase pathway in blood tumor cells from patients with precursor B-ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukemia) and AML (acute myeloid leukemia).

4. 2. Perplexing Protein Puzzles

   Author : Stina Lindman; Biofysikalisk kemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; calbindin D9k; split-GFP; protein G B1; pKa-values; protein reconstitution; Electrostatic interactions; protein stability; protein denaturation; heteronuclear NMR; pH titrations;

   Abstract : Protein structure and stability are inherent in the amino acid sequence and governed by non-covalent interactions. The cooperation between forces is, however, perplexing and not well understood. In order to elucidate and predict protein folding and stability, detailed studies of non-covalent interactions are required. READ MORE

5. 3. Gastric electrical stimulation. Studies in patients with intractable nausea and vomiting

   Author : Stina Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : gastric electrical stimulation; gastroparesis; gastroscopy; vomiting; gastric accommodation; drinking test; dyspepsia;

   Abstract : The most severe cases of gastroparesis are refractory to drugs. In the 1990s gastric electrical stimulation (GES) was introduced for treatment of nausea and vomiting in patients with diabetic and idiopathic gastroparesis. The electrodes and neurostimulator are usually placed with laparoscopy. READ MORE

6. 4. Biogeochemical processes in frozen soils : unfrozen water in frozen soils and factors regulating carbon mineralization at low temperatures

   Author : Stina Harrysson Drotz; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

   Abstract : High latitude ecosystems are important for global carbon (C) balances and are among the most sensitive ecosystems to climate change. Microbial CO2 production in soil is known to proceed at temperatures < 0ºC in these regions and winter CO2 emissions can significantly affect annual C balances. READ MORE

7. 5. A Decontextual Stylistics Study of the Genji Monogatari : With a Focus on the "Yûgao" Story

   Author : Stina Jelbring; Gunilla Lindberg-Wada; Machiko Midorikawa; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Genji Monogatari; Yûgao; Japanese literature; Murasaki Shikibu; Heian Period; monogatari; waka; poetry; stylistics; narratology; poetics; genre; metaphor; allusion; symbol; translation studies; Japanology; Japanologi; Japanology; japanologi;

   Abstract : The dominant part of the research on the “Yûgao” (The Twilight Beauty) story of the Japanese eleventh-century classic the Genji Monogatari (The Tale of Genji) is philological and often excludes a general literary analysis. This story has also been related to Japanese and Chinese literary influences, thereby placing the text in its literary context. READ MORE
