Fusogenic Liposome-Assisted Drug Delivery Across Physiological Barriers
(2021-10-18)
Fusogenic liposomes (FL) are biocompatible, cationic nano-carriers, consisting of neutral and positively charged lipids, as well as an aromatic compound. They were previously used for the delivery of nucleic acids, proteins ...
Antiapoptotic survival strategies of human neurons
(2021-06-28)
Neurons of the central and peripheral nervous system are the key information processing and relay units within the human body. Since neurons are post-mitotic cells and neurogenesis in the adult human brain is very limited, ...
Characterization of signaling events following single-cell death in myocardial cell clusters in vitro
(2021-05-26)
Cell death is a characteristic feature of acute and chronic cardiac pathologies such as myocardial infarction, ischemia-reperfusion and heart failure. Cardiomyocytes (CMs) death triggers myocardial remodeling that may lead ...
Charakterisierung zellulärer Kräfte von Mikrogeweben durch Entwicklung eines elastischen, dreidimensionalen Zellkultursystems
(2021-03-12)
Zellen sind in einem Organismus eng mit der Extrazellulären Matrix (ECM) verbunden. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften der ECM, wie die Elastizität sowie ihre Topographie sind dabei besonders entscheidend für Epithelzellen. ...
Modelling Complex Activities from Visual and Textual Data
(2021-07-23)
Complex activity videos are long-range videos composed of multiple sub-activities following some temporal structuring and connected purpose. Recognizing human activities in such videos is a long-standing goal with a broad ...
Indirect probes to constrain the CP nature of the Higgs boson
(2021-08-09)
The measurements of the coupling, spin, and charge-parity CP properties of the Higgs boson are consistent with the Standard Model (SM) predictions. However, the corresponding uncertainties are still large, and alternative ...
Small Molecules, Big Impact: Investigating Hydrides in the Interstellar Medium
(2021-06-16)
This thesis investigates hydride molecules in the interstellar medium (ISM) and their use as diagnostics of different phases of the ISM. Particular emphasis is given to the central CH radical, a probe of diffuse and ......
Grundlagenuntersuchungen an modifizierten Ru und Pt Oberflächen für die Direktmethanolbrennstoffzelle
(2021-10-15)
Die vorliegende Dissertationsschrift beschreibt Grundlagenuntersuchungen an verschiedenen modifizierten Ru und Pt Oberflächen als Modellsysteme für die bimetallischen Katalysatorsysteme Se/Ru, Ru/Pt und W/Pt, die in der ...
Nuclear Physics in a finite volume: Investigation of two-particle and α-cluster systems
(2021-01-25)
We investigate both analytically and numerically some artifacts introduced by the lattice environment in two-body charged fermion and antifermion systems and in α-conjugate nuclei. The finite (hyper)cubic lattice as a ...
On the membrane model and the discrete Bilaplacian
(2021-04-26)
This thesis is concerned with the membrane model, an example of a discrete random interface model. This model arises, for example, when studying thermal fluctuations in biomembranes. Mathematically, it is given as a Gibbs ...
