The clustering of certain proteins into oligomers and fibrils, known as amyloids, underlies the pathology of diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and type 2 diabetes. These processes are counteracted by the cellular protein quality control system, which includes molecular chaperones that interact with disease-associated proteins. One such chaperone is DNAJB6b, which has gaine

Background Few lifestyle intervention studies examine long-term sustainability of dietary changes. Objective To describe sustainability of dietary changes over 9 years in the Diabetes Prevention Program and its outcomes study, the Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study, among participants receiving the intensive lifestyle intervention. Design One thousand seventy-nine participants were enrolle
The isolation of male and female DNA is an important step in the analysis of sexual assault evidence. A vaginal swab with female epithelial cells and male sperm cells is obtained from the female, and it is vital to separate the male and female fractions in order to obtain a single-source DNA profile of the suspect. In the case of a low abundance of sperm cells, it is very important that no cells a
Among birds, falcons are high-performance flyers, in many cases adapted for aerial hunting and hence suitable targets for investigating limits to flight performance. Using an optical range finder, we measured flight tracks of Eleonoras falcon (Falco eleonorae), a species breeding in the Mediterranean region and specialised for hunting autumn passage bird migrants, when commuting between their nest
This intermediate report presents some of the important findings of the research work carried out during the first three years of the CHRISGAS project. The report is aimed at a broad technical-oriented audience such as: engineers with a general interest in the state-of-the-art and new developments in the biomass-to automotive fuel sector, and/or to teachers/lecturers/students in technical subjects
Popular Abstract in Swedish Regimskiftet 1965-1966 i Indonesien åtföljdes av en massaker på kommunister och vänstersympatisörer, varvid uppskattningsvis 1/2 miljon människor fick sätta livet till. Ytterligare 100.000-tals personer internerades i över ett decennium, somliga så länge som 30 år utan att deras sak blev prövad i en rättegång. Andra blev summariskt avrättade. Så sent som på 1990 talet vStarting from Theodor Adorno´s assertion that art is negative knowledge of the real world, the book analyses Indonesian literature produced during the New Order which deal with the events of 1965-1966 and its consequences. A number of Indonesia´s best known authors have written on the subject. The central issue raised is the extent to which this literature has contributed to undermining and thereb
Lactic acid exists as two optical isomers, D- and L-lactic acid. For the production of biodegradable poly-lactic acid an optically pure product is desirable, but a racemate of known and constant ratio can also be used. Lactic acid can be produced either synthetically or fermentatively. Fermentative production has some advantages: by choosing a lactic acid bacterium producing only one of the isomer
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vi vill bevara naturbetesmarker och deras skönhet, vilken bland annat utgörs av de olika växtarter som förekommer där. Men idag finns det tyvärr inte många betesmarker kvar. Naturbetesmarkerna har under de senaste två sekelerna försvunnit på grund av ökad eller minskad markanvändning, där betesmarker blivit omvandlade till antingen åkermark eller skog. Bristen på betesmLarge areas of grazed, species rich semi-natural grassland were lost in Europe during the last two centuries and as a consequence led to decreases in grassland specialist species. Therefore, today the “restoration” of grassland on previously arable fields is recommended for the protection of grassland specialists. Even “substitute habitats” for lost grasslands are discussed as temporary alternativ
Popular Abstract in Swedish I de flesta organ i människokroppen pågår en ständig förnyelse av celler för att kompensera för gamla cellers bortfall som en följd av skador och naturlig död. En ensam cell kan på egen hand kopiera allt sitt DNA och därmed all information den bär på, för att därefter dela sig och skapa en exakt identisk kopia av sig själv. Kodat i DNA finns instruktionerna för hur en oTelomeres are the end-structures of linear chromosome which are crucial for maintaining genome integrity. The telomeres prevent the DNA-repair machinery from recognizing the chromosome ends as double-strand breaks and from end-to-end fusions. The telomeres are composed by short repetitive units of TG-rich DNA and associated specialized telomere-binding proteins. Due to that replication only can
The aim of this chapter is to move the issue a bit beyond the polarized views of profound critical reflection versus excessive trust in the checking procedures behind standards. We claim that the polarized views are largely due to an over-simplistic understanding of transparency. By comparing practical policy processes surrounding various standards, we aim to provide nuance to the issue of transpa
In a changing climate, rapid adaptation may be crucial for survival. Genetic diversity is the main source for evolutionary changes prevailing in populations. Intraspecific variation allows populations to adapt to environmental changes. Maintaining this variation is vital for biodiversity’s long-term conservation. Yet, genetic information is only incorporated in 17% of conservation plans in Europe
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur avvägningen mellan effektivitet och rättssäkerhet i förarbetena till skattetillägget kommit att påverka hur dagens skattetillägg fungerar i praktiken vid Skatteverkets kontrollverksamhet avseende tjänsteavdrag. Detta redogörs för genom att dagens regelverk och de förarbeten som legat till grund för skattetillägget analyseras i förhållande till effektivThe purpose of this essay is to investigate how the trade-off between efficiency and rule of law during the legislation processes for the tax surcharge has come to affect how today's tax surcharge works in practice regarding the Swedish Tax Agency's monitoring of tax deductions for work-related expenses made by natural persons. This essay will examine this through analyzing today's reg
In the creation of the Swedish Torts Act of 1972, questions of autonomy were raised and discussed in a number of different ways. Its treatment here and in the writing of several important legal scholars in the period between the 1864 Penal Law and the new Torts Act offers several valuable insights into the problem of autonomy and tort law today, not least concerning robotics and AI. This essay ar
Med avstamp i den mänskliga rättigheten att söka asyl och den väletablerade rätten till internationellt skydd för den som uppfyller flyktingdefinitionen, belyser uppsatsen exklusionsbestämmelserna, undantaget som kan utesluta en person från flyktingskydd. De humanitära skyddsåtgärder som Flyktingkonventionen erbjuder förverkas nämligen om det finns synnerligen anledning att anta att den asylsökandThis thesis starts off in the human right to seek asylum and the recognized right to international protection for refugees. It examines the exclusion clauses, the exception that can exclude asylum claimants from refugee protection. The protective measures guaranteed by the Refugee Convention are forfeited if there are serious reasons for considering that the claimant has committed crime against pe
Background and Purpose: The EFFECTS (Efficacy of Fluoxetine - a Randomised Controlled Trial in Stroke) recently reported that 20 mg fluoxetine once daily for 6 months after acute stroke did not improve functional outcome but reduced depression and increased fractures and hyponatremia at 6 months. The purpose of this predefined secondary analysis was to identify if any effects of fluoxetine were ma
Green Roofs (GRs) have been used worldwide as a solution for greening cities, while providing useful services to society such as storm water management, improved air quality, energy savings, and increased biodiversity, to name a few. However, the environmental impact of their structure has been understudied, and more importantly, the carbon cost related to the use of materials that have a high car
