Abstract:

Mestrado em Biomedicina Molecular<br>Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) is a type 1 membrane protein that suffers proteolytic cleavages and has been implicated in roles such as cell adherence, survival, migration and differentiation. Although a role in neuritogenesis has been attributed to APP, some contradictory results have been reported regarding the benefits of knocking-down or overexpressing APP. Further, while the addition of the APP proteolytic sAPP (secreted APP) fragment to the cell medium enhances neuritogenesis, the amount of cellular APP and other APP fragments may be deleterio

Changes in extracellular Ca2+ (Ca2+o) differentially modulate 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1α-hydroxylase (1αOHase; encoded by CYP27B1) mRNA and protein levels in cell types including the renal proximal tubule (inhibitory), parathyroid, and skeletal osteoblasts (stimulatory) to control 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 synthesis. We hypothesised that the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) mediated Ca2+o concentration-dependent control of 1αOHase, either directly through Ca2+o, or through the local production of parathyroid hormone related peptide (PTHrP). To investigate promoter activity, I transfected a firefly

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia affecting the elderly, and as the aging population increases the social and economic burden of AD grows substantially. Pathological hallmarks of AD include the accumulation of extracellular amyloid plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), as well as significant neuron loss. Amyloid plaques consist of aggregated amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide, which is generated from the proteolytic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) in addition to several other peptides.

In recent years, H2O2 has become established as an important regulator of signal transduction in eukaryotic cells.

Abstract:

Compressed sensing (CS) theory has demonstrated that sparse signals can be reconstructed from far fewer measurements than suggested by the Nyquist sampling theory. CS has received great attention recently as an alternative to the current paradigm of sampling followed by compression. Initial CS operated under the implicit assumption that the sparsity domain coefficients are independently distributed. Recent results, however, show that exploiting statistical dependencies in sparse signals improves the recovery performance of CS. This dissertation proposes model-based CS reconstruction techniques

The interest of this work is to explore the spin dependent effects of projectile structure in nuclear heavy ion induced reactions. The projectiles are considered to consist of two clusters which remain inert, the intercluster wavefunctions are obtained by the use of the orthogonality condition model. Excitation to the low lying projectile states is included by the use of coupled channels calculations. The projectile excited states are included by allowing excitation in the inter cluster wavefunctions. Coupling to the excited states is performed by multipole terms arising from a single folding

Abstract:

ADP-dependent glucokinase (ADPGK) is a novel glucose-phosphorylating enzyme that uses ADP as a phosphate donor. The mammalian gene was discovered in 2004; its sequence was found to be unrelated to ATP-dependent hexokinases, but closely related to archaeal ADPGK. Its biological role in mammals has not yet been investigated. Since cancer cells are known to be highly dependent on glycolysis, the role of ADPGK in cancer biology was evaluated. ADPGK was found to be highly expressed in cancer cell lines and human tumours, although expression in the latter was not strongly up-regulated relative to no

This conclusion is reinforced by a simple fit to data of threshold current density against hydrostatic pressure, in which the loss mechanism is seen as an activated rate of change o
