Functional Genomic Approaches for Deciphering Plant-Virus Interactions
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 479, 2013-12-10)
Plant-virus interactions are very complex in nature and lead to disease and symptom formation by causing various physiological, metabolic and developmental changes in the host plants. These interactions are mainly the ...
New Insights into Human Gut Microbiota Development in Early Infancy : Influence of Diet, Environment and Mother’s Microbiota
(Turun yliopisto, 2016-12-12)
The human gut is home to an enormous number of microbes that play an important role in host physiology, metabolism, nutrition and immune function. Deviations in initial human gut microbiota development have ...
Cardiac Troponin Specific Autoantibodies: Analytical Tools for Exploring Their Impact on Cardiac Troponin I Testing
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A II 293, 2014-10-17)
Cardiac troponin (cTn) I and T are the recommended biomarkers for the diagnosis and risk stratification of patients with suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS), a major cause of cardiovascular death and disability worldwide. ...
Free Prostate-specific Antigen Forms and Kallikrein-related Peptidase 2: Tools for Prostate Cancer Diagnostics
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 440, 2012-06-29)
Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a marker that is commonly used in estimating prostate cancer risk. Prostate cancer is usually a slowly progressing disease, which might not cause any symptoms whatsoever. Nevertheless, ...
Luminescent Lanthanide Reporters: New Concepts for Use in Bioanalytical Applications
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 461, 2013-05-17)
Lanthanides represent the chemical elements from lanthanum to lutetium. They intrinsically exhibit some very exciting photophysical properties, which can be further enhanced by incorporating the lanthanide ion into organic ...
Monooxygenase Diversity and Oxygen Activation within Polyketide Antibiotic Biosynthesis
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 535, 2016-03-24)
Molecular oxygen (O2) is a key component in cellular respiration and aerobic life. Through the redox potential of O2, the amount of free energy available to organisms that utilize it is greatly increased. Yet, due to the ...
Activation Independent Functions of Collagen Receptor Integrins alpha1beta1 and alpha2beta1
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 553, 2017-03-24)
Cell adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules, such as collagen, is mediated by the integrin family of cell surface receptors. Integrins are also exploited by several viruses during cell entry. Integrins literally ...
Interactions between Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Probiotics
(Turun yliopisto, 2010-12-08)
The prevalence of inflammatory based diseases has increased in industrialized countries over the last decades. For allergic diseases, two primary hypotheses have been proposed to explain this phenomenon, namely the hygiene ...
Oxygen Photoreduction in Cyanobacteria
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 509, 2015-03-13)
Cyanobacteria are well-known for their role in the global production of O2 via photosynthetic water oxidation. However, with the use of light energy, cyanobacteria can also reduce O2. In my thesis work, I have investigated ...
Switchable lanthanide fluorescence probes in homogenous molecular diagnostics
(Turun yliopistoAnnales Universitatis Turkuensis A I 476, 2013-12-13)
The number of molecular diagnostic assays has increased tremendously in recent years.Nucleic acid diagnostic assays have been developed, especially for the detection of human pathogenic microbes and genetic markers ...
