Investigating Overexpressed Cytosolic Phospholipase A2α in a Triple Negative Breast Cancer Model
(Master thesis, 2018)Breast cancer is the type of cancer that affects the most women worldwide and approximately 18% of these incidents belong to the category of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). TNBC lacks targeted treatments and the ... -
Investigating the effects of inhibiting cytosolic phospholipase A2 alpha in an acute lymphoid leukaemia cell model
(Master thesis, 2019)Leukemi er den vanligste kreftformen blant barn, og tilnærmet 80% av alle tilfellene kategoriseres som akutt lymfatisk leukemi (ALL). ALL representerer en heterogen gruppe av sykdommer uten et identifiserbart genetisk eller ... -
Investigating the effects of osmotic stress and cellulose biosynthesis inhibition on cell morphology and plasma membrane tension in Arabidopsis thaliana using confocal microscopy and the mechanosensitive Flipper-TR
(Master thesis, 2022)Planter trenger et system for å oppfatte og tilpasse seg miljøet rundt, ettersom de ikke kan forflytte seg. Plantecellen er omgitt av en cellevegg som støtter opp planten strukturelt og mekanisk. Mekanismene for ... -
Investigating the expression of cytosolic phospholipase A2α and its role in the cell cycle of an acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell model
(Master thesis, 2022)Akutt lymfoblastisk leukemi (ALL) er den mest utbredte krefttypen blant barn og er forårsaket av en ansamling av mutasjoner som fører til arrestert utvikling av lymfocytter og ukontrollert proliferasjon. Dagens behandling ... -
Investigating the gill-oxygen limitation hypothesis in fishes: intraspecific scaling relationships of metabolic rate and gill surface area
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021) -
Investigating the role of cPLA2α in macrophage polarization
(Master thesis, 2021)Macrophages are involved in the pathogenesis of many inflammatory diseases including fibrosis, asthma, and atherosclerosis. These macrophages possess remarkable plasticity which allows them to respond to diverse ... -
Investigating the role of cytosolic phospholipase A2 alpha in acute myeloid leukaemia
(Master thesis, 2023)Akutt myelogen leukemi (AML) er en heterogen gruppe av klonale hematopoietiske stamcelleforstyrrelser, og er den vanligste formen for leukemi hos voksne. I dag er behandlingen i stor grad avhengig av induksjonskjemoterapi, ... -
An investigation into animal personality in early benthic phase European lobster (Homarus gammarus)
(Master thesis, 2016)Consistent individual differences in behavior, also known as animal personality, have been described across a wide range of taxa. In this study, evidence for animal personality was investigated in the European lobster, an ... -
Investigation into the effects of inhibiting cytosolic phospholipase A2 alpha on the proliferation of an immortalized keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT).
(Master thesis, 2020)Psoriasis er en vanlig kronisk inflammatorisk sykdom som er karakterisert ved hyperproliferering og unormal differensiering av epidemis. Det er ingen kur, og det har vært lite forbedring i utviklingen av nye behandlinger ... -
Investigation of important steps in Palmaria palmata cultivation
(Master thesis, 2019)Økt etterspørsel av rødalgen Palmaria palmata øker interessen for kultivering av denne arten i Norge. Mer forskning innen viktige trinn i P. palmata kultivering er nødvendig for at stor skala kultivering skal bli mulig. I ... -
Investigation of the genetic diversity of domestic Capra hircus breeds reared within an early goat domestication area in Iran
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Abstract Background Iran is an area of particular interest for investigating goat diversity. Archaeological remains indicate early goat domestication (about 10 000 years ago) in the Iranian Zagros Mountains as well as in ... -
Investigation of the inflammatory response in human monocytes and macrophages exposed to micro- and nanoplastics in vitro
(Master thesis, 2023)Mennesker eksponeres for mikro- og nanoplast (MNP) i økende mengder gjennom inntak av mat og drikke, innånding og hudkontakt. Likevel er innvirkningen disse partiklene kan ha på menneskers helse fortsatt ikke fullt ut ... -
Is ambient light during the high Arctic polar night sufficient to act as a visual cue for zooplankton?
(Journal article, 2015)The light regime is an ecologically important factor in pelagic habitats, influencing a range of biological processes. However, the availability and importance of light to these processes in high Arctic zooplankton communities ... -
Is basal metabolic rate associated with recruit production and survival in free-living house sparrows?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Life history theory predicts that available energy is limited and needs to be allocated among different processes such as growth, reproduction and self-maintenance. Basal metabolic rate (BMR), a common measure of an animal's ... -
Is it possible to escape from a crocodile attack? Review of human and saltwater crocodile conflict in Asia in Australia
(Master thesis, 2022)Human and saltwater crocodile conflict has been increasing yearly in crocodile-inhabited countries in Asia and Australia. This study was conducted to foster the safety of humans and the wellbeing of saltwater crocodiles, ... -
Is the rate of metabolic ageing and survival determined by basal metabolic rate in the zebra finch?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-09-29)The relationship between energy metabolism and ageing is of great interest because aerobic metabolism is the primary source of reactive oxygen species which is believed to be of major importance in the ageing process. We ... -
Is there genetic variation in the response to competition intensity in juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Effects of intraspecific competition intensities on the relative performance (growth and movement) of juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta originating from nine different families were tested in tank experiments and in ... -
Is there plasticity in developmental instability? The effect of daily thermal fluctuations in an ectotherm
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Diversified bet‐hedging (DBH) by production of within‐genotype phenotypic variance may evolve to maximize fitness in stochastic environments. Bet‐hedging is generally associated with parental effects, but phenotypic variation ... -
Isbjørnens effekt på fugl i et arktisk klima i endring - Sluttrapport for Svalbards miljøvernfond
(NINA Rapport;1163, Research report, 2015)Arktis blir stadig varmere og utbredelsen av havis blir mindre. Det forandrer leveområdet til de mange artene som er avhengige av havis. Isbjørnen er avhengig av havis for å jakte på sel, og økende lengde på den isfrie ... -
