Throughout their lifetime individuals are exposed to complex mixtures of chemicals. The study of chemical mixtures is an internationally recognized research priority, but seemingly complex challenge. To reduce the intricacy of studying mixtures, researchers have identified different prioritization methods based on exposure or the toxicity of chemicals. However, understanding the...
Signal transduction within and between cells is at the core of biological activity in all living systems. Signaling networks are required for regulating biological functions, including growth, development and survival. Deregulation of signaling cascades has been linked to chronic and acute diseases and disorders This thesis focuses on mass spectrometry...
