Purpose: Dysfunctional proteostasis, with decreased protein degradation and an accumulation of ubiquitin into aggregated protein inclusions, is a feature of neurodegenerative diseases. Identifying new potential biomarkers in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) reflecting this process could contribute important information on pathophysiology. Experimental design: A developed method combining SPE and PRM-MS i

We construct the Chiral Perturbation Theory operators for neutron–antineutron oscillations and use these to estimate chiral and finite volume corrections at one-loop order.

Effective separation methods for fractionating blood components are needed for numerous diagnostic and research applications. This paper presents the use of acoustophoresis, an ultrasound based microfluidic separation technology, for label-free, gentle and continuous separation of mononuclear cells (MNCs) from diluted whole blood. Red blood cells (RBCs) and MNCs behave similar in an acoustic stand

This paper examines the role of foreign trade in the consumption of energy in Czechoslovakia through a bottom-up approach in accounting for energy embodied in trade with manufactured goods. It provides a unique analysis of annual changes in energy embodied in trade in a country characterized by changing political regimes. On the whole, Czechoslovakia has been a net exporter of energy throughout th

Background: The preference for sweet taste is partially genetically determined. The major allele of the single nucleotide polymorphism rs12033832 in the sweet taste receptor (TAS1R2) has previously been associated with lower sugar sensitivity and higher sugar intake among overweight individuals. The aim of the present study was to examine the association between dietary intake and the TAS1R2 genot

I en dialog mellan medieforskare ur två generationer diskuteras centrala frågor kring kulturperspektivets aktuella roll i medieforskningen. Begreppet kulturalisering relateras till medialisering och mediering; det slås ett slag för mediekulturbegreppet och ett vidgat mediebegrepp prövas kritiskt. Samspelet mellan gränsdragningar och överskridanden tematiseras på olika nivåer, dels i förhållande ti

This article discusses children as contributors to sustainable ecological development. The aim of the article is to develop a framework for researching two questions: What are the prerequisites for children to become responsible environmentalists? What actual and potential influence do children have on their family’s consumption? Three theoretical perspectives are elaborated in relation to relevan
