Transcriptomics paving the way for improved diagnostics and precision medicine of acute leukemia

Transcriptional profiling of acute leukemia, specifically by RNA-sequencing or whole transcriptome sequencing (WTS), has provided fundamental insights into its underlying disease biology and allows unbiased detection of oncogenic gene fusions, as well as of gene expression signatures that can be used for improved disease classification. While used as a research tool for many years, RNA-sequencing

Development of a thermal micro-biosensor fabricated on a silicon chip

In order to develop a sensitive, versatile and inexpensive portable instrument, a calorimetric micro-biosensor was designed and fabricated by etching part of the flow system into a silicon wafer. The utility of the device was tested using the enzymes, catalase and penicillinase. This sensor showed good reproducibility and linearity up to 100 mM. The system also showed higher sensitivity than the c

Reconsidering regional structural conditions for industrial renewal

This article develops a more comprehensive understanding of innovation-based renewal of industries from a structural perspective. Arguably, established perspectives offer rather simplistic views, portraying structures as either enabling or constraining for certain forms of regional industrial change. Inspired by work in organizational institutionalism on ‘institutional infrastructures’, this artic

Trip Reports: Exploring the Experience of Psychedelic Intoxication

Experiences of intoxication elude scientific research because of their immediate and ‘inner’ nature for the intoxicated individual. In this chapter, we show how ‘trip reports’ – reports of psychedelic intoxication – from online drug information forums and libraries allow for further understanding the experience of psychedelic intoxication from LSD, DMT and psilocybin by examining psychonauts’ (i.e

Purification and HDL-like particle formation of apolipoprotein A-I after co-expression with the EDDIE mutant of Npro autoprotease

Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) is the major protein constituent of high-density lipoprotein particles, and as such is involved in cholesterol transport and activation of LCAT (the lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase). It may also form amyloidal deposits in the body, showing the multifaceted interactions of ApoA-I. In order to facilitate the study of ApoA-I in various systems, we have developed a pro

Korruption, utländsk påverkan och frihetstidens styrelseskick : En politisk historia

Allt sedan det amerikanska presidentvalet 2016 har det runt om i världen pågått en intensiv diskussion om utländska påverkansoperationer och hur och med vilken framgång främmande makter i det fördolda har sökt påverka demokratiska val, politisk opinion och politiska beslut i olika länder, däribland Sverige. Forskare, debattörer och politiker har särskilt framhållit att den nya informationsteknolog

The Gaia-ESO Survey : Galactic evolution of lithium from iDR6

Context. After more than 50 years, astronomical research still struggles to reconstruct the history of lithium enrichment in the Galaxy and to establish the relative importance of the various 7Li sources in enriching the interstellar medium (ISM) with this fragile element. Aims. To better trace the evolution of lithium in the Milky Way discs, we exploit the unique characteristics of a sample of op

Extending the Proteomic Characterization of Candida albicans Exposed to Stress and Apoptotic Inducers through Data-Independent Acquisition Mass Spectrometry

Candida albicans is a commensal fungus that causes systemic infections in immunosuppressed patients. In order to deal with the changing environment during commensalism or infection, C. albicans must reprogram its proteome. Characterizing the stress-induced changes in the proteome that C. albicans uses to survive should be very useful in the development of new antifungal drugs. We studied the C. al

The impact of peripheral artery disease on major adverse cardiovascular events following myocardial infarction

Aims: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) constitute a high-risk with adverse clinical outcomes. We aimed to investigate the cardiovascular outcomes following myocardial infarction (MI). Methods and results: This nationwide, Danish register-based follow-up study includes all patients experiencing an MI between 2000 and 2017. Patients with and without PAD were compared. Multivariable logistic regressio
