The Gendering of a Farming System. A study of the relationship between gender and agricultural production in Ghana.
(Master thesis, 2018-06-12)Gender issues have increasingly been given attention to in research on agriculture and farming systems. Prior to the 1970s, gender was rarely addressed, as economic activities and more technical descriptions were prioritized ... -
Gendering “Ariel and all his Quality” (I.II.193): Nonbinary Embodiment in Text and Performances of The Tempest.
(Master thesis, 2022-05-20)Denne masteroppgaven argumenterer for at Ariel fra Shakespeare sin komedie Stormen (The Tempest) best forstås som en ikkebinær karakter. Ariel har blitt tolket og fremstilt på ulike måter, og historisk har hen som oftest ... -
Gene expression alterations in salivary gland epithelia of Sjögren’s syndrome patients are associated with clinical and histopathological manifestations
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a complex autoimmune disease associated with lymphocytic infiltration and secretory dysfunction of salivary and lacrimal glands. Although the etiology of SS remains unclear, evidence suggests ... -
Gene expression analyses of immune responses in Atlantic salmon during early stages of infection by salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) revealed bi-phasic responses coinciding with the copepod-chalimus transition
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-03-07)The salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis Krøyer), an ectoparasitic copepod with a complex life cycle causes significant losses in salmon aquaculture. Pesticide treatments against the parasite raise environmental concerns ... -
Gene Expression Analysis in gla-Mutant Zebrafish Reveals Enhanced Ca2+ Signaling Similar to Fabry Disease
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Fabry disease (FD) is an X-linked inborn metabolic disorder due to partial or complete lysosomal α-galactosidase A deficiency. FD is characterized by progressive renal insufficiency and cardio- and cerebrovascular involvement. ... -
Gene expression in Atlantic salmon skin in response to infection with the parasitic copepod Lepeophtheirus salmonis, cortisol implant, and their combination
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-04-05)Background: The salmon louse is an ectoparasitic copepod that causes major economic losses in the aquaculture industry of Atlantic salmon. This host displays a high level of susceptibility to lice which can be accounted ... -
Gene expression in bryozoan larvae suggest a fundamental importance of pre-patterned blastemic cells in the bryozoan life-cycle
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-06-06)Background: Bryozoa is a clade of aquatic protostomes. The bryozoan life cycle typically comprises a larval stage, which metamorphoses into a sessile adult that proliferates by asexual budding to form colonies. The homology ... -
Gene expression in the rat brain: High similarity but unique differences between frontomedial-, temporal- and occipital cortex
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-26)Background: The six-layered neocortex of the mammalian brain may appear largely homologous, but is in reality a modular structure of anatomically and functionally distinct areas. However, global gene expression seems to ... -
Gene expression in tumor cells and stroma in dsRed 4T1 tumors in eGFP-expressing mice with and without enhanced oxygenation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-01-17)Background The tumor microenvironment is pivotal in tumor progression. Thus, we aimed to develop a mammary tumor model to elucidate molecular characteristics in the stroma versus the tumor cell compartment by global gene ... -
Gene expression profile of oral squamous cell carcinomas from Sri Lankan betel quid users
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-11)Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the major health problems in Sri Lanka and the disease is associated with the habit of Betel Quid (BQ) chewing. Using 35k oligo microarrays, we analyzed the gene expression ... -
Gene expression profiles in rat brain disclose CNS signature genes and regional patterns of functional specialisation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-04-04)Background: The mammalian brain is divided into distinct regions with structural and neurophysiological differences. As a result, gene expression is likely to vary between regions in relation to their cellular composition ... -
Gene expression profiles of CMS2-epithelial/canonical colorectal cancers are largely driven by DNA copy number gains
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-15)About 80% of colorectal cancers (CRCs) have chromosomal instability, which is an integral part of aggressive malignancy development, but the importance of specific copy number aberrations (CNAs) in modulating gene expression, ... -
Gene expression profiles of dicyemid life-cycle stages may explain how dispersing larvae locate new hosts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-11-13)Metazoans have evolved a great variety of life histories in response to environmental conditions. A unique example is encountered in dicyemid mesozoans. In addition to a highly simplified adult body comprising only ~ 30 ... -
Gene expression profiling of meningiomas: current status after a decade of microarray-based transcriptomic studies
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2011-01-14)Purpose This article provides a review of the transcriptomic expression profiling studies that have been performed on meningiomas so far. We discuss some future prospects and challenges ahead in the field of gene expression ... -
Gene expression response in peripheral blood cells of petroleum workers exposed to sub-ppm benzene levels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-10-27)Altered gene expression in pathways relevant to leukaemogenesis, as well as reduced levels of circulating lymphocytes, have been reported in workers that were exposed to benzene concentrations below 1 ppm. In this study, ... -
Gene Methylation and Silencing of WIF1 Is a Frequent Genetic Abnormality in Mantle Cell Lymphoma
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We have previously shown that the Wnt canonical pathway (WCP) is constitutively active in most cases of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). Here, we aimed to elucidate the mechanisms underlying this biochemical deregulation. We ... -
A gene signature identifying CIN3 regression and cervical cancer survival
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-16)The purpose of this study was to establish a gene signature that may predict CIN3 regression and that may aid in selecting patients who may safely refrain from conization. Oncomine mRNA data including 398 immune-related ... -
