Bone marrow stromal cell transplantation ameliorates cytopenias caused by depletion of FAP-α expressing cells
Camarillo Retamosa, Eva (NUI Galway, 2018-05-03)Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) therapies are being successfully developed for immune-mediated inflammatory diseases as phase 3 clinical trials have demonstrated. However, the en-dogenous roles of stromal cells (SSCs) are ... -
Elastin-like recombinamers-based hydrogel modulates the post-ischemic remodelling in a clinically-relevant model of myocardial infarction
Contessotto, Paolo (NUI Galway, 2019-04-17)Myocardial infarction (MI) belongs to the family of cardiovascular diseases and represents the primary cause of worldwide mortality. Despite the promising results achieved in both small and large animal studies, recent ... -
A godly Sybilla, an erudite wife and a burdensome sister: the formation and representation of women’s reputations within the Hartlib Circle 1641-1661
Bourke, Evan (NUI Galway, 2018-10-19)This thesis analyses the formation and representation of the reputations of three women: Katherine Jones, Viscountess Ranelagh (1615-1691); Dorothy Moore Dury (c.1612-1664); and Jean Appelius (fl.1638-1648), whose connection ... -
The influence of collagen isolation, cross-linking and sterilisation on macrophage response
Delgado, Luis Maria (2018-03-07)Collagen-based devices are frequently associated with foreign body response. Although several pre- (e.g. species, state of animal, tissue, isolation protocol) and post- (e.g. cross-linking, scaffold architecture, sterilisation) ... -
Size and compositional dependent effects of marine aerosol on cloud condensation nuclei
Fossum, Kirsten (NUI Galway, 2018-12-06)This work investigates marine aerosol physico-chemical properties (e.g. size and chemistry) and its Cloud Condensation Nuclei (CCN) properties under natural background conditions. Black carbon (BC), a tracer for anthropogenic ... -
A systems biology frame work for integrating and analysing the functional role of glycosylation on immune response
Oommen, Anup (NUI Galway, 2019-04-23)Reproducing the systems biology efforts established across areas of cell biology such as integrating biological networks with omic datasets and subjecting it to modelling analysis for studying the functional involvement ...
