Tesis doctorals llegides a la UPF en format digital en accés obert introduïdes a la plataforma TDX (Tesis Doctorals en Xarxa), on també es poden consultar tesis d'altres centres.
This thesis consists of three chapters on topics in Macroeconometrics. Chapter 1 develops
a hypothesis test to evaluate economic models and their forecasts robust to instabilities.
The test is particularly powerful in the ...
Macrophages play crucial roles in the defense of the organism against a wide range of pathogens. Macrophages can rapidly adapt to perturbations in the microenvironment due to the existence of a network of transcription ...
El principal objetivo de la tesis doctoral es profundizar en el conocimiento de la imposición y ejecución de la sanción de separación del grupo por días en España y Catalunya. Para ello, se lleva a cabo un análisis legislativo ...
Autoinflammatory diseases are caused by an antigen independent hyperactivation of inflammatory pathways. The first genetic defect linked to an autoinflammatory disease was described almost 25 years ago and, since then, the ...
Els pacients diagnosticats amb esquizofrènia o un primer episodi psicòtic (PEP) que consumeixen cànnabis presenten alteracions clíniques diferencials comparats amb els no consumidors. En aquesta tesi doctoral, hem emprat ...
Yeast deal with continuous environmental perturbations that compromise its cell fitness. Upon osmostress, HOG pathway becomes activated and leads the adaptation response. To compensate the osmotic imbalance, Hog1 is in ...

The outer epithelial layer is the first cell type that emerges during development, providing essential mechanical protection and is indispensable for morphogenesis. Here, we study how the interplay between molecular and ...
Embryonic stem cells (ESCs) are derived from the inner cell mass of the pre-implantation embryo and can recapitulate early developmental stages of the embryo. ESCs have the ability to continuously propagate while maintaining ...
Cocaine use profoundly disrupts the neuronal circuits that regulate reward processing, motivation and decision making, resulting in long-lasting neuroplastic adaptations in the mesocorticolimbic system. The endocannabinoid ...
Our everyday life is plenty of social interactions, but there are still many unknowns about the mechanisms supporting them. The current dissertation aims to explore the neurocognitive processes that underlie interactions ...
Chromocenters are established after the 2-cell (2C) stage during mouse embryonic development, but the factors that mediate chromocenter formation remain largely unknown. To identify regulators of 2C heterochromatin ...
Emotions are a fundamental part of human life. They play a critical role in how we think, behave, and implicitly understand each other. However, although computing devices are increasingly consequential in our world, they ...
Retinoblastoma protein (RB) is a negative regulator of the cell cycle. In response to environmental stress, p38 MAPK phosphorylates RB in the N-terminal region, increasing the affinity of RB for E2F, repressing gene ...
The idea of this work has been to identify factors that determine the adult body plan in hemimetabolan embryogenesis, using the cockroach Blattella germanica as model. Comparative genomics studies pointed to three factors ...
Despite decades of scientific effort, cancer remains a major cause of death worldwide. Through the accumulation of genome alterations, tumor populations evolve the capacity to circumvent the selective barriers of tissue ...
Cell volume regulation is essential for cellular homeostasis and adaptation to environmental osmotic changes. Upon hyperosmotic stress, cells need to rapidly restore osmotic balances in order to preserve the function of ...
Myeloid malignancies are clonal diseases originated in myeloid hematopoietic stem cells that are frequently initiated by somatic mutations. The detection of genetic alterations has considerably improved the diagnostic ...
Wei Cheng (围城 ), una de las obras literarias más importantes de la China moderna, es ampliamente conocida por su estilo sarcástico y el uso de abundantes metáforas. Mediante un estudio de la traducción chino-español de las ...

La normativa europea en materia de disciplina presupuestaria establece un concepto
autónomo de deuda pública que debe ser aplicado por los Estados miembros para dar
cumplimiento a los mandatos europeos. La presente tesis ...
Linguistic characteristics of spontaneous connected speech are showing increasing potential
for detecting and tracking cognitive decline in Alzheimer’s disease, and could be particularly
suitable to study at-risk populations ...
