Functional imaging of the anesthetized brain in primates and rodents
(2022-07-05)Understanding the brain is aided by visualizing neural activity over time. The most popular method for doing so in humans is functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)—a method that tracks blood oxygenation as a proxy ... -
A healthy social life? Sociality and health indicators in wild red-fronted lemurs
(2022-06-29)In the last 40 years, an increasing number of studies from medicine, neurosciences, and psychology demonstrated links between many aspects of sociality, health, and fitness in humans and laboratory animals. Some studies ... -
Engineering of a bacteriophytochrome-derived reversibly switchable fluorescent protein for the application in super-resolution microscopy in the near-infrared window
(2022-06-29)The developments of fluorescence microscopy techniques has advanced our understanding of biological systems on a cellular level. In recent years, several super-resolution microscopy techniques overcame the diffraction ... -
Vitality of heather (Calluna vulgaris) along gradients of climate, structure and diversity in dry lowland heathland habitats of Northern Germany
(2022-06-29)This thesis provides a fundamental overview to North German Dry lowland heathland vegetation composition, vegetation structures and the determinants for the vitality of the key species, Calluna vulgaris. It offers new ... -
Biodiversity Governance: Non-State and Sub-National Initiatives in Latin America
(2022-06-21)Non-state and sub-national actors have been increasingly taking action to address biodiversity loss, however, only relatively recently their initiatives started being integrated into international biodiversity governance. ... -
Decision-Making During Ongoing Actions
(2022-06-21)Contemporary theories of action-based decision-making suggest that making decisions between goods, and specifying the actions required to obtain these goods, are parallel and intertwined processes, which allows for highly ... -
The role of RNA in synapse physiology and neurodegeneration in models of Parkinson’s disease
(2022-06-14)Synaptic dysfunction is an early alteration in multiple neurodegenerative disorders. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is characterised by the accumulation of α-synuclein (αsyn) in pathological inclusions known as Lewy bodies ... -
Anti-apoptotic and neuroprotective erythropoietin/CRLF3-signalling in insects and humans
(2022-06-14)The cytokine receptor like factor 3 (CRLF3) evolved together with the eumetazoan nervous system and is present in all major groups of Animalia. Based on sequence similarities, CRLF3 was assigned to the family of class 1 ... -
Regulation of mechanical feedback amplification in the Drosophila ear
(2022-06-09)Ears achieve their exquisite sensitivity using positive mechanical feedback (Ashmore et al., 2010). Like pushing a swing augments its swing, sound-induced vibrations are enhanced by motile responses of auditory receptor ... -
Role of Neuroligin-2 and its Interacting Inhibitory Synapse Organizers in the Circuits of Fear Learning and Anxiety
(2022-06-03)Neuroligin-2 (Nlgn2) is a synaptic adhesion molecule that promotes the maturation and function of inhibitory synapses. Lack of Nlgn2 in mice produced a reduction in inhibitory synaptic transmission in many brain regions. ... -
Analysis of the Cell Entry of Enveloped Viruses and Identification of Potential Intervention Strategies
(2022-05-19)Viruses are a continuous threat for the human population. They are causing tremendous damage to human health and economy. Not only zoonotic viruses, which jump from animals to humans, but also the spread of highly adapted ... -
Yeast cleavage factor Hrp1 is a novel guard protein that surveils pre-mRNA 3’ processing
(2022-05-10)Hrp1 is a component of the cleavage and polyadenylation complex (CPF-CF) for pre-mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation in S. cerevisiae. It specifically binds to a relatively conserved UA-rich domain called the efficiency-element ... -
The establishment of a recombinant system for Papiine alphaherpesvirus 2
(2022-05-10)Simplexviruses of primates are closely related neurotropic herpesviruses that establish lifelong latent infections. While neuropathogenic infections are uncommon in their respective natural hosts, zoonotic transmission of ... -
Explaining decisions of graph convolutional neural networks for analyses of molecular subnetworks in cancer
(2022-05-03)Contemporary deep learning approaches exhibit state-of-the-art performance in various areas. In healthcare, the application of deep learning remains limited since deep learning methods are often considered as non-interpretable ... -
Nachhaltige Landnutzung und Gesundheit als Bildungskontexte für das rurale Madagaskar – Effektivität und Umsetzbarkeit von Maßnahmen aus Sicht von Expert*innen und Lehrkräften
(2022-04-28)Education plays a central role for Sustainable Development. In Madagascar, most of the population only completes primary education, making Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) highly relevant already for primary ... -
Response of Soil Microarthropods to Drought in Arable Fields
(2022-04-28)In the face of current as well as projected increased frequencies and severities of droughts the interest in responses of the belowground system to such profound changes in environmental conditions has risen. The heavily ... -
CMTM5 - a novel CNS myelin protein involved in preserving axonal integrity
(2022-04-28)Myelination of axons in the nervous system facilitates rapid, saltatory signal propagation, accelerating nerve conduction speed manyfold. Additionally, myelinating glia support the long-term integrity of axons they ... -
Structural studies of short nucleosome arrays containing linker histone H1
(2022-04-21)The DNA inside the eukaryotic nucleus is bound by octamers of histone proteins to form the nucleosome as the basic repeating unit of chromatin. Along the genome, nucleosomes locally form regularly spaced arrays. The relative ... -
