An inverse relationship between low-density lipoprotein uptake and cell density was observed in rat hepatocyte monolayers incubated with lipoprotein-deficient serum. This was also true for cell association, binding and degradation of low-density lipoproteins. Compactin stimulated cell association and degradation of low-density lipoproteins both at low and high concentrations. Insulin, on the other

Objective: The aim was to explore stem cell recipients’ perceptions of experiences of having a sibling donor from pretransplantation to one year afterwards in order to support their learning process.Methods: Ten adult recipients, five women and four men, with a mean age of 52 years (19-68 years) receiving stem cells from a sibling donor were included consecutively. We used a phenomenographic appro

Genetisk variation som kulturarv i Sydsveriges agrara landskap” (GRAAL) är ett projekt som nyligen initierats och bedrivs i samarbete mellan Sveriges Lantbruksuniversitet (SLU), Centrum för Biologisk Mångfald (CBM) och Nordiskt Genresurscenter (NordGen). Projektets syfte är att studera den genetiska mångfalden och föreslå bevarandeåtgärder kring det genetiska kulturarvet i träd och buskar i dagens

Response to a paper titled "'But now ... do not let all this hardship seem insignificant before you': Ethnic History and Nehemiah 9", on the general theme of Ethnicity in the the Bible and in Biblical Scholarship.

Studies on the acquisition of French liaison have primarily focused on monolingual children or adult second language (L2) learners in a university context. To bridge the gap between these two populations, the present article focuses on child L2 (cL2) learners – a particularly interesting group, since they are L2 learners who, unlike adults, do not have access to writing. How does liaison develop i

Mycket forskning inom olika vetenskapsområden har länge haft fokus på social­tjänstens insatser för barn i olika avseenden och även på privatiseringen av verkstäligheten av vården. Det saknas däremot studier som fokuserar på förekomsten av privata konsulter som genomför barnavårdsutredningar. Det innebär också att det idag är oklart vilka konsekvenser en sådan förändring innebär för socialtjänsten

This chapter explores the initial development of VOT in three Swedish-speaking learners of French (age of onset: 3;0-3;5). Swedish uses long lag and short lag/lead to differentiate voiceless and voiced stops word-initially (Helgasson & Ringen 2008; Sundberg & Lacerda 1999). In French this distinction is made using short lag and lead (Kessinger och Blumstein 1997). Through a memory game wor

Elastic fixed window scans of incoherent neutron scattering are an established and frequently employed method to study dynamical changes, usually over a broad temperature range or during a process such as a conformational change in the sample. In particular, the apparent mean-squared displacement can be extracted via a model-free analysis based on a solid physical interpretation as an effective am
