Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen handlar om ett protein, en receptor, kallad GPR30. GPR30 tillhör proteinfamiljen G protein-kopplade receptorer vilka är nödvändiga för att celler ska kunna kommunicera med varandra och med sin omgivning. Förenklat sätt kan de ses sitta på ytan av en cell där de väntar på att någonting ska binda till dem, vilket aktiverar receptorerna och får dem attThe large protein family called G Protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has co-evolved with life throughout evolution; from single cell organisms all the way to complex beings such as us humans. The fact that GPCRs are involved in essentially every physiological event, and that ~50% of drugs on the current market are either directly or indirectly targeted towards the function of GPCRs, we can be certa

The transformation from analogue to digital recording techniques has not only changed the ways of working for the studiotechnician, but affects the musician in the way he thinks about performance and sound, and therefore also his actual performance. The signal processing and the staging of the singing voice in the studio is both influenced by, and influences the estethics of popular song performa

Environmental health studies have examined associations between context and health with individuals as statistical units. However, investigators have been unable to investigate momentary exposures, and such studies are often vulnerable to confounding from, for example, individual-level preferences. We present a Global Positioning System (GPS)-based methodology for segmenting individuals' observati

Bats are currently killed in large numbers at wind turbines worldwide, but the ultimate reason why this happens remains poorly understood. One hypothesis is that bats visit wind turbines to feed on insects exposed at the turbine towers. We used single molecule next generation DNA sequencing to identify stomach contents of 18 bats of four species (Pipistrellus pygmaeus, Nyctalus noctula, Eptesicus

Throughout the years, the church has played an integral role in the community. It has served as a spiritual hub, a political symbol, and a center point for the community. One thing that cannot be denied is that the church has had some sort of power and influence on the community throughout different periods of time. You may even argue if the impact it has had on the community is positive or not. S

Diskrimineringsskydd för personer med könsöverskridande identitet eller uttryck infördes i svensk lagstiftning år 2009, många år efter att andra utsatta grupper erhöll ett likvärdigt skydd. Det sena införandet speglar en samhällelig diskurs som råder än idag, där vissa förhåller sig kritiska till användandet av transpersoners önskade pronomen. Frågan om transpersoners rättsliga skydd aktualiserasProtection from discrimination for people with transgender identity and expression was not introduced in Swedish legislation until 2009, years after other vulnerable groups obtained the same protection. The late introduction reflects a societal discourse that still prevails today, where some are critical of the use of transpeople’s desired pronouns. The issue of the legal protection of people wit

Under the growing influence of dominant discourses such as ecological modernisation and neo- liberalisation, proposed alternative conservation approaches focus more and more on efficiency. In the realm of biodiversity conservation, synthetic biology - the application of engineering to facilitate and accelerate the design or modification of genetic materials in living organisms – has emerged as an

Genbanker har existerat i en eller annan form i årtusenden. De tjänar som bevaring för biologiskt material. Formerna genbanker kan ta skiftar; De kan vara en botanisk trädgård, ett akvarium, eller ett laboratorie med frysarna fulla av genetiskt material. Ibland kan det röra sig om vävnadsprover, frön, eller DNA, Avsikten är att bevara, även om anledningarna kan vara olika. Det finns många likheterGene banks have in one form or another existed for thousands of years. They serve the purpose of repository for biological material. They can take the shape of a botanical garden, of an aquarium, or as a laboratory where the freezers are stuffed full with genetic resources. Sometimes as tissue samples or seeds, and sometimes as strands of DNA. The intention is to preserve, although the reasons may

In knowledge based industries, how has the changing economic climate in the United States altered hiring and training programs? Technology related jobs have faced a shortage of educated workers in the past and this trend was expected to continue in the future (See Waiting for Superman). With this situation in mind, has this sector followed the stereotype of the recession by laying off workers and

Domestic food waste is a concept that recently has gained a lot of interest in the waste management industry. While people’s daily practices have converged more cultural and social symbols with food waste and keep re-defining and re-constructing the domestic food waste system, food waste then has emerged as a way to explain the real meaning hidden behind the everyday practices. By studying litera

PURPOSE: To evaluate the intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering effect of laser trabeculoplasty (LTP) in eyes which IOP had been substantially reduced by intensive topical treatment for one week.METHODS: Patients with newly diagnosed open-angle glaucoma were randomized to treatment with three IOP-lowering substances. One week later, 360° argon or selective LTP was performed. IOP was measured before L

Background: In January 2010, the choice reform was instituted in Swedish primary health care establishing free entry for private primary health care providers and enabling patients to choose freely among primary health care centers.

Objective: The present study investigated the risk of rehospitalization, mortality, and the management of patients with asthma who had been hospitalized because of an asthma exacerbation. Methods: National Swedish h

Introduction: Beyond total mesorectal excision (bTME) offers long-term survival in patients with advanced pelvic malignancy. At Skåne University Hospital (SUS) Malmö in Sweden, the vertical rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (VRAM) and gluteal maximus (GM) flap have been used for perineal reconstruction to promote healing and functional outcomes after significant tissue loss. This study aims to exa

Caroline Arvaker Utan naturen kan vi inte leva I naturen finns alla våra resurser vilket gör den viktig att skydda. Detta är en gemensam värdering hos ett antal unga utomeuropéer boende i Malmö. Dock leder inte pro naturella värderingar alltid till ett miljöengagemang i handling, det finns andra faktorer som spelar in. I mitt masterarbete har jag genom intervjuer undersökt hur tio utomeuropéer ABSTRACT The purpose of this study is to examine how young adults with non-European background and with an upbringing in a city associate to nature and what may have influenced these associations. Given that a majority of people live in cities, there is a risk that many young people do not spend time in natural environments, which may affect their associations to nature and also their environment

Uppsatsen behandlar svårigheterna för oligopol att beakta varandras beteenden, då detta kan anses utgöra ett samordnat förfarande. Att på ett självständigt och intelligent sätt anpassa sig till andra företags beteenden är något helt tillåtet i konkurrensrätten, och begränsas inte av EU-rättens artikel 101.1 i fördraget om Europeiska unionens funktionssätt. Problematiken uppstår om kommissionen stöThis essay examines the fine line between parallel behaviour of companies active in an oligopolistic market and concerted practices. Enterprises are fully permitted to independently and intelligently adapt their behaviour to the actions of their competitors, since this conduct is not illegal according to article 101.1 in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. However, the Commission
