NNT deficiency alters cardiac structure and function without impairing mitochondrial bioenergetics in aged mice

Proton-translocating NAD(P)+ transhydrogenase (NNT) is highly expressed in cardiac tissue, where it physiologically supports mitochondrial NADPH production. However, under certain pathological conditions, NNT may shift toward consuming the mitochondrial NADPH pool. Although NNT has been implicated in redox homeostasis, its contribution to cardiac function during aging remains uncertain. In this st

Brottsoffer eller gärningsperson? Kriminalisering av deltagande i kriminella sammanslutningar och betydelsen för unga lagöverträdare i åldern 15–17 år

År 2025 presenterades SOU 2025:2 Några frågor om grundläggande fri- och rättigheter, där en kommitté fick i uppdrag att bland annat utreda om ökade möjligheter bör införas för att begränsa föreningsfriheten i förhållande till kriminella sammanslutningar. Kommittén drog slutsatsen att sådana möjligheter bör införas, och några månader senare presenterades kommittédirektiv 2025:28 Kriminalisering av In 2025, the government presented the report SOU 2025:2, Some Issues Concerning Fundamental Rights and Freedoms, which tasked a committee with, among other matters, examining whether the freedom of association should be restricted in relation to criminal organizations. The committee concluded that such measures should be introduced and a few months later Directive 2025:28, Criminalization of Parti

Den objektiva omfattningen av skiljeavtal - En rättslig analys av hur räckvidden av ett skiljeavtal förhåller sig till rätten till domstolsprövning enligt artikel 6 (1) EKMR

Av artikel 6 (1) EKMR följer att alla har rätt att få sina tvister prövade av en domstol. Rättigheten grundar sig på en tanke om rättssäkerhet där förutsebarhet av rättsliga beslut är av central betydelse. Rätten till domstolsprövning är inte absolut utan det är möjligt att avstå från denna rättighet förutsatt att vissa krav är uppfyllda. Avståendet måste exempelvis vara frivilligt samt komma tillAccording to article 6 (1) ECHR everyone has a right to get legal disputes determined by a court. This right is grounded in the principle of legal certainty, in which the predictability of legal decisions is of great importance. The right of access to court is not absolute. It is therefore possible to waive this right provided that certain conditions are met. Such a waiver must for example be made

MAC-klausuler i svenska avtal om företagsförvärv - En undersökning avseende avtalstolkningsproblem

Vid företagsförvärv är det vanligt att avtalssigneringen och tillträdet sker som två separata moment en viss tid från varandra. En viktig anledning till denna uppdelning är att det ofta föreligger lagkrav som måste vara upp-fyllda innan tillträdet, exempelvis att företagsöverlåtelsen ska godkännas av Konkurrensverket eller av bolagsstämman. Detta medför dock risker för köparen. Vem ska bära ansvarIn company acquisitions, it is common for the signing of the agreement and the transfer of ownership to take place as two separate steps at different times. A major reason for this division is that there are often legal require-ments that must be met before the transfer of ownership can occur, such as the transfer having to be approved by the Swedish Competition Authority or by the company general

Allemansrätten - En studie om allemansrättens plats i 2000-talets svenska rättssamhälle

Allemansrätten är en rättighet med gamla anor som omfattar stor del av Sveriges yta och tillfaller alla som bor i och vistas i Sverige. Rättighetens materiella innehåll kan endast delvis utläsas ur lag och då närmast uteslutande motsatsvis ur lagbestämmelser. Istället har allemansrätten sin lagliga grund i sedvana. Att det inte alltid står klart vilka rättigheter till annans mark allemansrätten geThe common (legal) right of access to private land, "allemansrätten", is an established privilege that concerns most of Sweden’s territory and applies to anyone living in or staying in the country. The material content of the right can only partially be recognized in the legislation and then almost exclusively e contrario. Instead, the common legal right of access to private land is main

Conceptual Engineering for Engineers (and for Philosophers) : Conceptual Spaces as a Tool

Humans are extremely efficient in learning concepts and in forming new concepts. However, some conceptual systems are more efficient than others. One of the central tasks for conceptual engineering is to construct systems that fulfil some criteria of optimality. I argue that the methods of Knowledge Representation and Machine Learning are not sufficient. This chapter instead proposes that conceptu

NU'S INVOLVEMENT IN THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION A Convergence of Ideological and Pragmatic Motives

This paper analyzes Nahdlatul Ulama’s (NU) involvement in Indonesia's 2024 Presidential Election, focusing on the convergence of ideological and pragmatic motives. The study examines how different factions within NU align with various presidential candidates, driven by both the desire to protect Aswaja values and the need to maintain relevance in the political sphere. Using qualitative methods by

Phylogeny, systematics and evolution of mimicry patterns in Neotropical limenitidine butterflies

The Neotropical butterfly genus Adelpha Hübner exhibits remarkable species diversity and striking convergence in wing colour patterns potentially explained by mimicry, making it an exceptional model for exploring trait evolution and its relationship with speciation. To date, unresolved phylogenetic relationships hinder a comprehensive understanding of the evolutionary biology of the genus. Using a

Grazer-induced bioluminescence and toxicity in marine dinoflagellates

Marine copepods are the most abundant multicellular zooplankton in the global oceans. They imprint their surrounding waters with a unique bouquet of chemical compounds, including polar lipids such as copepodamides. Prey organisms can detect copepodamides and respond by inducing defensive traits including bioluminescence, toxin production, changes in colony size, and structural modifications. This

Non-cell-autonomous control of mouse gastruloid development by the ultra-conserved lncRNA T-UCstem1

The role of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in early mammalian embryogenesis remains unclear due to the complexity of the regulatory mechanisms involving lncRNAs and the limited availability of embryo samples. Stem cell-based models, such as mouse gastruloids, provide new ways to address these challenges. Here, we investigate the function of ultra-conserved lncRNA T-UCstem1 in mammalian body plan f

Dynamic Category Queries Transformer for Generalized Few-shot Semantic Segmentation

Few-shot segmentation (FSS) tackles data scarcity using multiple priors, but its simplicity limits handling base and novel classes with limited data access. Generalized few-shot semantic segmentation (GFSS) enhances model performance for base classes with abundant data, while novel classes have limited data access, improving generalization with scarce data. Building on the design of query-based se

Super Time-Resolved Tomography

Understanding three Dimensional (3D) fundamental processes is crucial for academic and industrial applications. Nowadays, X-ray time-resolved tomography, or tomoscopy, is a leading technique for in situ and operando 4D (3D+time) characterization. Despite its ability to achieve 1000 tomograms per second at large-scale X-ray facilities, its applicability is limited by the centrifugal forces exerted

The genome sequence of the Dalmatian wall lizard, Podarcis melisellensis (Braun, 1877)

We present a genome assembly from a female specimen of Podarcis melisellensis (Dalmatian wall lizard; Chordata; Lepidosauria; Squamata; Lacertidae). The assembly contains two haplotypes with total lengths of 1,574.91 megabases and 1,437.04 megabases. Most of haplotype 1 (94.94%) is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes, while most of haplotype 2 (97.

Gender and Segregation : An Introduction

This introduction to the Special Issue explores the ways in which a gendered analysis illuminates histories of segregation. It argues three key points. First, it is essential to understand segregation from an intersectional perspective, one that fully integrates gender alongside other factors and dynamics in order to fully understand the differences and similarities in segregation between differen
