In search for remedies and treatments, science has recurred to Mother Nature. This is where galiellalactone was found, a fungal metabolite isolated from Galiella rufa in 1990. Since then chemists and biologists have been studying its properties and found it to be a potential candidate against castration-resistance prostate cancer (CRPC). The development of a new drug requires many studies of the c

Abstract in Danish I de industrialiserede lande har 7-10% af den voksne befolkning astma, og tallet har de seneste årtier været stigende [1]. Lægediagnosticeret astma i Danmark er øget fra 4 til 7-10%, og allergisk rinitis eller kronisk ikkeallergisk rinitis er øget fra 10% til 20-25% over en 20-årig periode [2]. Astma er den hyppigste kroniske sygdom hos unge og unge voksne, og en høj forekomst a

Skogsekosystemet är ett av de viktigaste ekosystemen på jorden. Skogen förser oss med mycket som vi har nytta av, vilket numera ofta kallas ekosystemtjänster. Skogen reglerar och förser oss med många viktiga ekosystemtjänster, till exempel biodiversitet, skydd av mark och vatten, tillförsel av fiber, bränsle och andra skogsprodukter, klimatreglering samt sociokulturella värden och tjänster. ArealeThe forest ecosystem provides and regulates many important ecosystem services, such as soil and water protection, timber production, and climate regulation. It has been influenced by changes induced by humans, for example, our increasing demand for timber and bioenergy, the increase in nitrogen (N) deposition and CO2 concentrations due to industrialization, and climate change which has caused an i

Popular science Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are a versatile group of non-methane hydrocarbons (chemical compounds made of carbon and hydrogen) emitted by vegetation. The most common BVOCs from plants are some chemical compounds like isoprene, monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes. BVOCs are involved in plant growth, reproduction and defense mechanisms. Besides, BVOC play an important rol

Ett av Sveriges klimat- och energipolitiska mål avser effektivare energianvändning. Ett sätt att uppnå målet är genom kravställning på energihushållning vid renovering av byggnader. I de fall då det med hänsyn till byggnadens kultur- och arkitektoniska värde inte går att tillämpa beprövade metoder får andra alternativa metoder sökas. En sådan annan alternativ metod är en dubbelskalfasad och innebäOne of Sweden's political objective is to increase energy efficiency. One way to achieve the objective is by making demands on the use of energy after a building has been renovated. Regarding the building's cultural and architectural values there are cases where it is not possible to apply proven methods to meet the demands, and other alternative methods must be sought. Such an alternative

Syftet med studien var att undersöka upplevelser av babyrytmik och vad som kan uppnås genom babyrytmik i en verksamhet tillhörande Svenska Kyrkan i Malmö. Litteraturkapitlet beskriver begreppet rytmik och dess bakgrund, babyrytmik, barns upplevelse av musik och rytmik, samt barns utveckling kopplad till musik och rytmik. Studien innehåller också en intervju med kyrkans rytmikpedagog samt en fokusg

För att garantera en rättssäker brottmålsprocess är det av stor betydelse att den misstänkte får insyn i det material som innehas av polisen och åklagaren. Utan insyn i utredningsmaterialet skulle det starkt begränsa den misstänktes möjligheter att försvara sig på ett fullgott sätt och att kontrollera åklagarens och domstolens bedömning. Den misstänktes rätt till insyn är emellertid inte absolut oIn order to guarantee that the criminal proceedings are in compliance with the rule of law, it is of great importance that the suspect has access to the materials held by the police and the prosecutor. Without such access, it would severely limit the suspect’s access to adequate facilities for the preparation of his defence and ability to verify the prosecutor’s and the court’s assessment. However

Under början av 1900-talet införde alla nordiska länder, förutom Norge, en möjlighet för frihetsberövade kvinnor att medföra sitt spädbarn i anstalten under straffverkställigheten. Regleringarna grundades på arvsbiologiska aspekter, då det var vanligt att de små barnen fortfarande ammades av sina mödrar och de var beroende av modersmjölken för att överleva. Med tiden har dock regleringarnas syfte In the beginning of the 20th century all Nordic countries except Norway introduced a possibility for imprisoned women to bring their infants with them during their sentence. The legislation was considered necessary due to the fact that the infant still was breast-fed by their mother. Child psychologist and psychoanalysist John Bowlby (from Great Britain) developed the affiliation theory during th

Introduction and aim: In SPECT imaging, the finite spatial resolution of the imaging system leads to a blurring of the reconstructed image. Consequently, counts originating from each point in the source distribution will be spread out over a volume in the reconstructed image, leading to spill-over of counts between different structures and distortion of the apparent activity concentration. This pr

BACKGROUND: Asthma is the most frequent chronic disease in children. One of the most replicated genetic findings in childhood asthma is the ORMDL3 gene confirmed in several GWA studies in several paediatric populations.OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to analyse ORMDL3 variants and expression in childhood asthma in the Polish population.MATERIALS AND METHODS: In the study we included 416

Molecular beacons (MBs) have been used on surfaces for detecting oligonucleotides. Attempts to use them intracellularly for monitoring mRNA content have been made, however, without any clear conclusion regarding the reliability of the method, mainly due to false positive signals. To reach an understanding of the intracellular fate of MBs, a critical question remains: how long after MB delivery and

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) enable hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) through their ability to replenish the entire blood system. Proliferation of HSCs is linked to decreased reconstitution potential, and a precise regulation of actively dividing HSCs is thus essential to ensure long-term functionality. This regulation becomes important in the transplantation setting where HSCs unde

Background: During the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, reductions in air pollution were globally observed owing to decreased human activities, underscoring the potential for cleaner air through shifts in human behaviour. Objectives: The objective of the present study was to hypothetically estimate the resulting population health impacts in Malmö, Sweden, if these improvements in air qualit

Free-standing nanowires can gain intracellular access without causing stress or apoptosis. Current approaches to generate nanowires focus on lithographic patterning and inorganic materials (Si, GaAs, Al2O3, etc.) while organic materials are less explored. Use of organic conductive polymers allows for the creation of soft mixed ion–electron conducting nanowires. Processing conductive polymers into
