CHARACTERIZATION OF IMMUNE CELL SUBSETS IN A MODEL DISEASE FOR ENDOCRINE AUTOIMMUNITY BY MASS AND FLOW CYTOMETRY
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)The autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1 (APS1) is a complex and rare monogenic form of autoimmunity caused by pathogenic variants of the autoimmune regulator (AIRE) gene; a transcription factor primarily expressed in ... -
Investigation of the Role of BCR/ABL1 in Neutrophil Extracellular Trap (NET) Formation in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML)
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) represent a rather newly discovered antimicrobial mechanism first described by Brinkmann and co-workers in 2004. NETs are extracellular structures composed of decondensed chromatin ... -
Pharmacological targeting of the Treg/Th17 axis using in vitro cell cultures derived from patients with autoimmune Addison's disease
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Autoimmune Addison’s disease (AAD) is a rare endocrine disorder characterized by an immune-mediated attack towards the cells of the adrenal cortex. The major self-antigen, targeted by autoantibodies and self-reactive T ... -
Functional consequences of modulated expression of SLC25A51 on cellular NAD metabolism
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide is a small molecule involved in the regulation of signaling pathways and energy transduction. In the compartmentalized human cell, mitochondria are considered to constitute the major pool ... -
Analysis of mRNA poly(A) tail length in relation to long-term potentiation of synaptic transmission in the rat dentate gyrus in vivo
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)Thoughts and experiences are stored in a capacious and dynamic central nervous system consisting of a vast number of communicating cells interconnected via synapses. New experiences generate neuronal activity which in turn ... -
Cellular clearance and protein binding partners of pathogenic CEL-HYB
(Master thesis, 2022-06-01)The CEL gene encodes the digestive enzyme carboxyl ester lipase, which is mainly expressed in the acinar cells of the pancreas. In 2015, our research group discovered a CEL hybrid gene, named CEL-HYB, resulting from ... -

Making in vivo models viable again: Synthetic lethality between DNA repair factors Xlf and Paxx is rescued by inactivation of Trp53
(Master thesis, 2019-06-28)Non-Homologous End-Joining (NHEJ) is the major DNA repair pathway that senses, processes and ligates DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) in higher eukaryotes, functionally throughout the cell cycle. The NHEJ involves four core ... -
The role of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinases (PDKs) in rewiring of cell metabolism under energy stress
(Master thesis, 2019-06-28)Irregularities in cellular energy metabolism have been linked to many human diseases, including metabolic disorders, mitochondrial diseases, cancer, and neurodegeneration. In order to survive and function properly, an ... -
