A cubic DNA nanocage probe is able to enter EVs derived from MDA-MB-231 cells and react with miRNA-10b. The probe-loaded EVs were employed to monitor the process of entry of miRNA-10b into MCF-10A cells, allowing visualization of EV-mediated intercellular communication of miRNA-10b between the cancer cells.

In a previous paper (Lundh, 2023), it was argued that psychological science can be seen as having three main branches, corresponding to three levels of research: research at the person level, at the population level, and at the mechanism level. The purpose of the present paper is to discuss the critique that has been raised against this model by Lamiell (2024) and Nilsson (2024) and to elaborate a

Plant-pollinator interactions are considered one of the primary factors driving the large diversity in floral traits. Adaptive floral trait diversification occurs when different pollinators show preference for different floral phenotypes imposing selection on, and potentially generating local adaptation, of floral traits in populations that interact with different insect communities. Plants in gen

International law is becoming increasingly more specialized and diversified. In response to these developments, international lawyers now widely refer to international investment law, European human rights law and many other branches as ‘special regimes’. Scholars in the field see the proliferation of special regimes as a threat to the unity of the international legal system. In so doing, they are

Does language modulate perception and categorisation of everyday objects? Here, we approach this question from the perspective of grammatical gender in bilinguals. We tested Spanish–English bilinguals and control native speakers of English in a semantic categorisation task on triplets of pictures in an all-in-English context while measuring event-related brain potentials (ERPs). Participants were

Progenitor cells adapt their behavior in response to tissue demands. However, the molecular mechanisms controlling esophageal progenitor decisions remain largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate the presence of a Troy (Tnfrsf19)-expressing progenitor subpopulation localized to defined regions along the mouse esophageal axis. Lineage tracing and mathematical modeling demonstrate that Troy-positive pro

En verkkommentar på examensarbetet To Call Home. Texten redogör för det komponenter som författaren använt för att främja deltagande i scenkonstverket. Författaren reflekterar också kring des olika effekter och framtidsvisioner

Purpose: This article aims to illustrate diffractive vignettes as a methodology to extend current communicative and performative approaches. We engage with the critical ethical- onto-epistemological underpinnings of diffraction and explore how it can sensitize communicative research (in particular within the Montréal School (TMS) of CCO scholarship) to processes of materialization - what comes to

Knowledge resistance can be defined as the state where we are “almost immune to evidence, or experiences of others” (Klintman 2022:323). The phenomenon, often described using related terms, remains highly relevant to understanding the challenges and opportunities of agreeing on the existence, severity, causes and solutions to environmental problems. The concept of knowledge resistance is related t

Denna kandidatuppsats utforskar acceptansfaktorer för AI-baserade teknologier inom svensk sjukvård bland vårdpersonal. Genom en kvalitativ forskningsmetod med semistrukturerade in- tervjuer har data samlats in från sjuksköterskor och läkare i svensk sjukvård. Resultaten analy- serades tematiskt och resulterade i sex huvudteman som belyser viktiga insikter om hur vård- personal uppfattar och acceptThis bachelor thesis explores acceptance factors for AI-based technologies in Swedish healthcare among healthcare practitioners. Using a qualitative research method with semi-struc- tured interviews, data was collected from nurses and physicians in the Swedish healthcare sys- tem. Thematic analysis of the results yielded six main themes that provide valuable insights into how healthcare profession

The wide range of properties, relative ease and low cost of using Deep Eutectic Solvents garners them interest in an ever expanding range of applications. Among common DES components many are naturally occurring chiral molecules. Here we present the liquid structure of either single enantiomeric or racemic tartaric acid with choline chloride at a molar ratio of 2 choline chloride to 1 tartaric aci

Bakgrund: Postoperativt delirium (POD) är en allvarlig komplikation som kan uppstå efter en operation och drabbar oftare den äldre populationen i samhället (>60år). POD ger en tillfällig kognitiv svikt och finns i tre olika varianter, hypoaktiv, hyperaktiv och mixad. Gemensamt för dem som drabbas är att det kan skapa ett stort lidande både under och efter förloppets gång. POD ökar även risken för

Purpose: Currently, foresight studies have been adapted to incorporate new techniques based on big data and machine learning (BDML), which has led to new approaches and conceptual changes regarding uncertainty and how to prospect future. The purpose of this study is to explore the effects of BDML on foresight practice and on conceptual changes in uncertainty.Design/methodology/approach: The method

The increased electrification of society and the development of smart grids are often seenas central in the transition towards a more sustainable and secure energy system and necessaryto address the challenges of increasing energy demand and limited resources. Thereare many visions and ideas on what a smart grid is or could be. While most research relatedto environmental impacts on the smart grid

Perceptions of human-Nature relations (HNRs) have been long theorised to be one of the factors causing global warming and environmental degradation. While individuals in Western societies have been increasingly recognising intrinsic values in Nature, ‘Mastery over Nature’, considered as prompting harmful interactions with Nature, is still prevalent at the social level. Social movements, such as De

Objective: Non-sustained supraventricular tachycardia (nsSVT) is associated with a higher risk of developing atrial fibrillation (AF), and, therefore, detection of nsSVT can improve AF screening efficiency. However, the detection is challenged by the lower signal quality of ECGs recorded using handheld devices and the presence of ectopic beats which may mimic the rhythm characteristics of nsSVT. M

Bakgrund: Barnmorskans dagliga arbete innefattar psykosociala aspekter där empati utgör en central del. Det finns lite forskning kring påverkan på barnmorskor när de arbetar utifrån ett empatiskt förhållningssätt. Empatitrötthet innebär minskad förmåga att ge fysiskt, psykiskt och emotionellt stöd. Empatitrötthet kommer ofta smygande och kan få stora konsekvenser för barnmorskan såsom utbrändhet,

Nano-scale chemical inhomogeneity in surface oxide films formed on a V- and N-containing martensite stainless steel and tempering heating induced changes are investigated by a combination of synchrotron- based hard X-ray Photoelectron emission spectroscopy (HAXPES) and microscopy (HAXPEEM) as well as microscopic X-ray absorption spectroscopy (μ-XAS) techniques. The results reveal the inhomogeneity
