Glypicans (GPC1-6) are associated with tumorigenic processes and their involvement in neoplastic behavior has been discussed in different cancer types. Here, a cancer-wide GPC expression study, using clinical cancer patient data in The Cancer Genome Atlas, reveals net upregulation of GPC1 and GPC2 in primary solid tumors, whereas GPC3, GPC5 and GPC6 display lowered expression pattern compared to n

Denna studie behandlar gamification inom e-handel för att skapa kundengagemang, öka besöksfrekvens och öka lojalitet. Gamification innefattar användandet av spelmekanismer utanför en spelmiljö. E-handel är ett område som lämpar sig bra för införande av sådana system då det är en bransch med stor potential för snabb utveckling. Vi har utfört en kvalitativ intervjustudie med användare och experter m

This study aims at investigating the crime prevention measures in Sofielund, Malmö. BID Sofielund is a unique collaboration between property owners and the public sector in a Swedish context, where they work together to make the district safer and more attractive. Therefore, there is every reason to investigate the crime preventing methods used in this collaboration. And what interests are behind

There are quite detailed structural data on the extracellular ligand-binding domain and the intramembrane channel-forming domain of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR). However, the structure of the intracellular domain, which has variable amino acid sequences in different nAChR subunits, remains unknown. We expressed in Escherichia coli the intracellular loops (between transmembrane fra

Internet Piracy has become a phenomenon as a result of developed Internet technologies and file-sharing applications. With the growth of the Internet and the increased number of Internet users around the globe, the world is becoming ever more digitalized. Users are expecting digital information to be readily available at the touch of a button. This has caused an immense demand for digital goods, w

Syfte: Uppsatsen ämnar ge svar på om det idag har skett ett ompositionering av modemagasinens ställning på marknaden med hänsyn till modebloggarnas utbredning - i ljuset av den digitalisering som i dagsläget påverkar branschen. Metod: I denna uppsats återfinns både kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod. Kvalitativ metod i form av intervjuer med personer aktiva inom modeindustrin för att skapa en större

In past years, Sweden has been facing a rapid growth of photovoltaic cells, and the total PV installation capacity increased from 300 kW to 1090 MW (2006–2020). The increased number of PV users was a result of active support from the Swedish government with an aim of achieving multiple sustainable goals regarding renewable energy. This project evaluates the profitability of shared PV systems in co

This article traces the reception of the the Swedish film Ingeborg Holm in 1913. The film created a fierce debate regarding the Swedish poor laws. This debate eventually led to changes in the law in 1918.

During the 1980s the word ’postmodernism’ was inserted into the dicourse of Swedish literature in a curious way. Even though both writers and critics found the word bewildering – or deemed it a buzzword devoid of meaning – it sparked fierce debates. Despite this, and despite the fact that few wanted to be associated with the word, it has become common to describe the 1980s as the era of Swedish li

In China, the strategic use of personal relationships is pervasive in transactions with government authorities as well as in inter-firm relations. Explanations as to when and why firms rely on guanxi emphasize a close link between organizational resources, environment and corporate strategic choices. Our study shifts attention to the importance of CEO preferences, specifically risk aversion, and s

When looking at energy supply on a larger scale than to a single building, such as to a neighbourhood or a city, the combined effects of peak power demands can be seen to cause problems on the production side. These can be both economic and environmental and lead to the emission of greenhouse gases when fossil fuels are used to meet these peaks. Encouraging the demand side to reduce their power de

Knowing the ohmic resistance in the materials allow to know in advance its electrical behavior when a potential difference is applied, and therefore the prediction of the electrical performance can be achieved in a most certain manner. Although the Lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) has been applied to solve several physical phenomena in complex geometries, it has only been used to describe the fluid

We present a detailed study of open heavy flavor production in high-energy pp collisions at the LHC in the color dipole framework. The transverse momentum distributions of produced b-jets, accounting for the jet energy loss, as well as produced open charm D and bottom B mesons in distinct rapidity intervals relevant for LHC measurements are computed. The dipole model results for the differential b

An extensive phenomenological study of the Drell-Yan (DY) process in pp collisions at various energies is performed in the color dipole framework. Besides previously studied γ∗ production we also include the Z0 contribution relevant at large dilepton invariant masses. We investigate the DY cross section differential in invariant mass, rapidity and transverse momentum of the dilepton pair in pp col

Denna studie avser att undersöka ansvarsfördelning i relation till organisationskommunikation, kriskommunikation samt varumärkesbyggande. Undersökningen är baserad i en fallstudie om Skånetrafiken och deras förhållande till underleverantörer, massmedia och kunder. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten är strategisk kommunikation och utifrån det används teorier som är relevanta till detta forskningsfält, tThis study intends to examine shared responsibility in relation to organizational communication, crisis communication and brand building. The survey is based on a case study about Skånetrafiken and their relationship to subcontractors, mass media and customers. The theoretical starting point is strategic communication and we use theories relevant to this field of research, theories on influence th
