Fatty acid synthase expression and inhibition in triple-negative breast cancer
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) represents 20% of breast cancer and patients receive only general chemotherapy. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is commonly expressed in TNBC and it is associated with poor ...
Desarrollo de modelos para el cálculo de uniones estructurales con adhesivos flexibles
The use of adhesive joints in industrial structural applications is currently growing. Nevertheless, the designing process is still a challenge for engineers because there is a lack of effective models to predict their ...
Diversity, dynamics and activity of Epsilonproteobacteria in a stratified karstic lake. Implications in carbon and sulfur cycles
This doctoral thesis studies the abundance, diversity, seasonal dynamics and activity of Epsilonproteobacteria in a meromictic basin of Lake Banyoles during three year cycles. We applied a complementary array of molecular ...
La pràctica educativa a través de l'aproximació dels fons de coneixement i d'identitat
The main objective of this doctoral thesis is to conceptualise educational practice from the theoretical and methodological perspective of funds of knowledge and identity. The thesis is organised on the basis of three ...
Assessment of wastewater phytotechnologies for the attenuation of emerging organic contaminants and development of innovative analytical methods for their determination
Emerging organic contaminants (EOCs), like pharmaceuticals and endocrine disrupting compounds, are continuously introduced into the environment. Some 2/2 have been found in water bodies, posing a risk on human health and ...

Reaction mechanisms involved in cross coupling processes catalysed by copper and nickel
Organometallic aryl-CuIII species have been proposed as key intermediates in Ullmann-type reactions. However, such species have long remained elusive and mechanistic investigations of a plausible catalytic cycle remained ...
Freezability markers for boar sperm: new proteomic approaches
Sperm cryopreservation is currently the most suitable technique to store boar sperm samples for a long period of time. However, not all boar ejaculations present the same freezability, this allows the classification of ...
Characterization and improvement of plant-associated Lactobacillus plantarum. Novel biocontrol agent for fire blight disease
Fire blight is a disease caused by Erwinia amylovora. For the limited effectiveness of copper products and the new regulations for the sustainable use of pesticides, biological control is considered a good alternative for ...
Functional genomics of the periderm: the biosynthetic gene FHT, the transcriptional regulator StRiK and the transcriptome deciphering
We have developed new molecular tools to characterize the FHT and StRIK genes in the tuber periderm. Regarding FHT gene, our results demonstrated that is induced very specifically in suberizing tissues what makes FHT a ...
Tools for 3D point cloud registration
In this thesis, we did an in-depth review of the state of the art of 3D registration, evaluating the most popular methods. Given the lack of standardization in the literature, we also proposed a nomenclature and a ...
