Amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP) are dominant markers frequently used to build linkage maps where heterozygosity could be inferred by a backcross breeding strategy. In the present study, we describe the utilization of an unmanipulated great reed warbler, Acrocephalus arundinaceus pedigree to infer heterozygous genotypes of AFLP markers in order to map these markers to a partial linka
Partially premixed combustion using gasoline-like fuels on compression ignition engines shows great potentials to break the soot-nitrogen oxides trade off and reduce both emissions simultaneously. By simply adjusting the dilution strategies and injection events, the control of partially premixed combustion is relatively easier compared to other low-temperature combustion concepts. However despite

BACKGROUND: The pancreas harbors growth factors such as the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family. The physiological and pathophysiological roles of growth factors in normal pancreas remain unsettled. Human pancreatic cancer overexpresses the EGF receptor, and the ligands EGF and transforming growth factor alpha (TGF-alpha). The aim of the present experiments was to study the effect of TGF-alpha in
Turbulent emulsification is an important unit operation in chemical engineering. Due to its high energy cost, there is substantial interest in increasing the fundamental understanding of drop breakup in these devices, e.g., for optimization. In this study, numerical breakup experiments are used to study turbulent fragmentation of viscous drops, under conditions similar to emulsification devices su
Ovarian cancer, often called the silent killer due to its diffuse symptoms at early stage, poor prognosis after treatments and high mortality, is also a heterogeneous disease consisting of different histological subtypes with potentially different origins. About 90% of all cases derive from epithelial cells and high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is the most common and aggressive form of e
Everyone who has worked with research knows how rewarding experimenting and developing new algorithms can be. However in some cases, the hard part is not the invention of these algorithms, but their evaluation. To try and make that evaluation easier, this thesis focuses on the collection of data that can be used as positional ground truths using an autonomous measurement platform. This should assi

Objectives ‒ The STarT Back screening Tool (SBT) captures patients with low back pain (LBP) at risk of worse prognosis. However, the SBT does not include assessment of multisite and chronic widespread pain (MS-CWP). The aim was to study the differences in prognostic factors in patients with LBP classified according to SBT or SBT in combination with MS-CWP, and the 1-year outcome regarding visits t
Diabetic treatment aims at achieving a normal blood glucose concentration as reflected by the glycosylated haemoglobin concentration. Intensive treatment by insulin pump or multiple insulin injections is thought to achieve this. In an unselected group of outpatient diabetics metabolic control was the same after one, two, three, or more injections, which suggests that the mode of treatment was opti
Neurogenesis in the subventricular zone (SVZ), which gives rise to new neurons in the olfactory bulb, continues throughout life but declines with increasing age. Little is known about how aging affects the intrinsic properties of the neural stem and progenitor cells (NSCs) in SVZ and the functional characteristics of their neuronal progeny. Here, we have compared the properties of NSCs isolated fr
BACKGROUND: The wingless-type mammary tumour virus integration site 5A (WNT5A) agonist Foxy5 was shown in vitro to affect intracellular signalling implicated in the regulation of colonic cancer stem cells (CSCs). MATERIALS AND METHODS: In order to study whether Foxy5 can modulate CSCs, either HT-29 or Caco-2 human colonic cancer cells, both lacking endogenous WNT5A expression, were inoculated subc
