Impact of UGT1A polymorphisms on inflammation and fibrogenesis in a humanized transgenic mouse model
(2020-07-07)Fibrogenesis represents a highly dynamic scarring response of the liver resulting from different causes of hepatic injury. A key process capable of activating a broad array of profibrogenic pathways is oxidative stress. ... -
Impact of aging and enriched environment on α-synuclein propagation
(2022-04-06)Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease. The prevalence of sporadic PD results from a complex interaction of demographic, genetic, and environmental factors. Age is one of the strongest ... -
The impact of artificial lights and anthropogenic noise on Loggerheads (Caretta caretta) and Green Turtles (Chelonia mydas), assessed at index nesting beaches in Turkey and Mexico
(2009-06-02)Coastal development is considered to be a significant hazard that endangers sea turtles by destroying nesting space. If uncontrolled, it will result in decline and local extinction, or will prevent recovery of these ... -
The impact of automated, constant incomplete milking on energy balance, udder health, and subsequent performance in early lactation of dairy cows
(2023-12-14)During the first weeks of lactation, dairy cows experience a negative energy balance (NEB), because the energy supply provided by feed intake can not cover the energy needed for maintenance and rising milk production at ... -
The impact of binary interaction on the main-sequence morphology of young star clusters
(2022-03-04)Star clusters play a vital role in our understanding of stellar physics and evolution, because they are believed to contain stars born at the same time, with the same initial conditions. Therefore, the distribution of the ... -
The Impact of Bounded Rationality on Equity-Linked Life Insurance and Technical Trading
(2014-10-07)This dissertation deals with the impact of investor behavior for life insurance and technical trading. The first part of this dissertation is concerned with equity-linked life insurance contracts, while the second part of ... -
The Impact of CD44 and Osteopontin on Hematopoiesis
(2021-10-25)Hematopoiesis is the process, which enables the replenishment of blood cellular components in mammals throughout their lifespan. Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), which reside within the bone marrow (BM), are the primary ... -
Impact of chronic liver inflammation on adaptive immune responses to viral infection
(2020-03-11)A common complication in patients suffering from chronic liver inflammation and fibrosis is the enhanced susceptibility to viral infections and weak responses to vaccination, which are associated with significant co-morbidities. ... -
Impact of climate change and stocking rates on pasture systems in SE Morocco – An Application of the SAVANNA Ecosystem Model
(2010-11-25)Extensive sheep and goat grazing provides the main income for population in Morocco’s semi-arid to arid areas where rainfall does not permit cropping without irrigation. As processes of vegetation dynamics cannot be assessed ... -
The impact of dendritic calcium control on interneurons function within the hippocampal circuit
(2018-05-11)In the past few decades, dendritic integration has been extensively studied in hippocampal excitatory cells (for review see Stuart and Spruston 2015). However, much less effort has been put into understanding inhibitory ... -
Impact of dietary interventions on metabolism and the gut-brain axis in adults with metabolic syndrome traits
(2023-08-09)In recent decades, the incidence of obesity and obesity-associated comorbidities such as the metabolic syndrome has exponentially increased in both developed and developing counties. It is widely accepted that inadequate ... -
The impact of economic prosperity on treatment protocols for cleft patients in Europe and North America
(2021-10-13)The rehabilitation of patients with cleft lip and palate anomalies requires years of specialized care and coordinated treatment steps. Since there are no generally accepted guidelines, this thesis aimed to gain a numerical ... -
Impact of ensiling conditions on formation of biogenic amines in grass and legume silages and feed intake behaviour of goats
(2019-05-14)Silage produced from small-grained legumes can contribute to the protein supply of ruminants. However, the susceptibility to protein degradation during harvest and the entire conservation process impedes to achieve high ... -
Impact of ERK signaling and its spatial regulation on cisplatin sensitivity in ovarian cancer cells
(2019-11-08)The efficiency of the anticancer drug cisplatin in ovarian cancer is often limited by the development of cisplatin resistance. Cisplatin activates a plethora of DNA damage-related signaling pathways, which regulate the ... -
Impact of human filarial infections on the metabolic and immunological profile and characterization of filariae-induced tropical pulmonary eosinophilia using a newly established mouse model
