Identifying The Most Distinctive Characteristics Of A Good Solution For Non-Euclidean Cvrp Using Statistical Learning Model, Piyabut Inbunsong

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

A capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) is a well-known NP-hard combinatorial optimization. Therefore, heuristics are the common methods used to search for a good solution. The algorithms will perform better if characteristics of good solutions of the problem are known. There was a research study in the characteristics of Euclidean CVRP solutions and the knowledge was later applied in a metaheuristic. That study becomes our motivation to study the characteristics of non-Euclidean CVRP solutions. To that end, we considered the solutions of non-Euclidean CVRP in the new Euclidean space with the same or higher dimensions using multi-dimensional scaling in which …

Enhanced Triacylglycerol Production In Chlorella Vulgaris By Flux Balance Analysis On Metabolic Network, Issalapap Kaothong

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Triacylglycerol (TAG) is a type of lipid that can be produced by a microalga called Chlorella vulgaris, which is a promising source of biodiesel. However, there is a lack of research and models explaining how to directly produce this lipid. To address this, we propose using linear minimization of metabolic adjustment (LMOMA), which predicts gene manipulation effects based on Flux Balance Analysis (FBA), to enhance TAG production. We conducted single-gene deletion experiments on the genome-scale metabolic model of C. vulgaris UTEX 395 (iCZ843) under different growth conditions: heterotrophy, photoautotrophy, and mixotrophy conditions. We found that the TAG production increased by …

The T Cell Senescence In Breast Cancer, Sikrit Denariyakoon Jan 2022

The T Cell Senescence In Breast Cancer, Sikrit Denariyakoon

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Background: The cancer-immune cell crosstalk is a common immune-evasion mechanism of cancer. This crosstalk can result in epigenetic changes in immune phenotypes to accelerate tumor growth and metastasis. Senescent T lymphocytes are formed during T cell differentiation, and are recently described as one of the dysfunctional T cells in cancer. In breast cancer, estrogen does not only regulate normal physiology in females, but is also involved in cancer development and cancer treatment. It may also attenuate senescent phenotypes, and increase DNA damage in several cell-lines. This thesis therefore examined for the presence of senescent T lymphocytes in breast cancer patients, …
