Abstract:
Secretory granule biogenesis describes the events leading up to the budding of a nascent granule from the trans Golgi network. Literature surrounding secretory granule biogenesis is conflicting and has generated much debate. This thesis aims to address the important issues of this debate by utilizing the insulin-producing liver cell line HUH7-ins. This cell line has been shown to synthesize, store and secrete mature insulin in response to glucose via the possession of secretory granules. Using microarray technology the gene expression profile of HUH7-ins cells was compared with parental HUH7 c

Abstract:
Background: The incidence and prevalence of dementia is increasing in the UK as the aged population increases. It is currently high on the national agenda. The National Dementia Strategy for England and End of Life Strategy advocate both living and dying well with dementia. Recent media attention has resulted in greater public interest in what can be a debilitating, unpredictable condition affecting those around the person with dementia and not the sufferer alone. This is at a huge cost to the economy and predicted to increase. Research suggests this group receive different levels of care and

Abstract:
Dental calculus, or tartar, is commonly found on archaeological skeletons since its inorganic nature remains stable even after many thousands of years. Dental calculus has long been seen as a valuable source of information on the nutrition and dental hygiene of past populations. As calculus forms in the mouth food consumption has been the major focus of research conducted so far, looking almost exclusively at dietary remains entrapped in it. The current PhD approaches the human mouth as a ‘depositional environment’, in which solid microscopic debris of different origins can become entrapped in

Abstract:
Background: Much debate exists about whether it is appropriate to talk to children with a life-limiting illness (LLI) about their diagnosis and prognosis. Traditionally a protective stance has been adopted, excluding children from conversations about them and their illness, In order to protect them from 'harm'. This exclusion is mirrored within the research literature with the child's voice seemingly absent. This raises the question 'how do we know what children's experiences of the communication processes around them and their illness, are if we do not ask them?' Objectives: This research aim
