Varför gör vissa bakterier oss sjuka men inte andra? Hur kommer det sig att vissa bakterier lyckas överleva och infektera särskilda delar av kroppen men väldigt sällan andra? Bakterier och människor har evolverat länge tillsammans och har därmed lyckats utveckla specifika angrepps och försvarsmekanismer mot varandra. Det är känt sedan tidigare att några bakterier uttrycker proteiner med förmågan Bacteria and humans have co-evolved since their common existence. They have thereby developed very specific defence and target mechanisms against one another. Understanding the complex biomolecular processes behind these interactions can be of great use for developing treatments against bacterial diseases. The aim of this thesis project was to verify, and introduce a model for understanding, the i

Osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts (OCs) are involved in the bone production and resorption, which are crucial in bone homeostasis. OC hyperactivation plays a role in the exaggerated bone resorption of diseases such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteolytic tumor metastases. This work stems from the finding that OCs can express B7h (ICOS-Ligand), which is the ligand of the ICOS T

Popular Abstract in Swedish Systemisk skleros (SSc) är en relativt ovanlig reumatologisk sjukdom som kan engagera många av kroppens organ. Sjukdomen kallas ibland också för sklerodermi. Typiskt för sjukdomen är att huden omvandlas till fibros och blir hård och stram över olika delar av kroppen. Typiskt för sjukdomen är också att drabbade patienter har försämrad funktion i sina blodkärl, framförallSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a systemic rheumatic disease with significant mortality and morbidity. Different estimations of disease prevalence and incidence have been presented from various parts of the world. While lung involvement is a common cause of SSc-related death, a majority of SSc patients suffer from symptoms originating in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. By combining data from a popu

Bränsleceller är ett intressant alternativ till förbränningsmotorer då bränsleceller har en högre effektivitet, är miljövänligare samt tystare. Bränslen som diesel, bensin samt det undersökta bränslet Jet A1, innehåller olika svårreagerade svavelföreningar. Problemet med bränslena är att de har ett relativt högt svavelinnehåll. Svavelföreningarna riskerar att förgifta katalysatorerna i de nedströ

Video capsule endoscopy (VCE), perfomed by ingesting a small vitamin-sized camera pill, was developed over a period of a couple of decades and –since its introduction in clinical practice at the dawn of the millennium– has become an essential tool in the diagnosis and management of small bowel (SB) diseases. At the same time, other fields such as minimally invasive diagnosis of other parts of the

Protein homeostasis in cells, proteostasis, is maintained through several integrated processes and pathways and its dysregulation may mediate pathology in many diseases including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Oxidative stress, heat shock proteins, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and its response, i.e. unfolded protein response (UPR), play key roles in proteostasis but their involvement in t

Background: Ocrelizumab is a humanized anti-CD20 antibody with increased antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity compared with rituximab. This phase I/II study evaluated its safety and efficacy in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) after prior rituximab therapy. Design and methods: Forty-seven patients were treated in three dose cohorts and received eight infusions every 3

The aim of this work is to use the AquaCrop model for irrigation and water productivity assessment of Table grapes in arid region of Mexico during 2005 and 2006 cropping seasons. The irrigation efficiency was investigated by comparing the irrigation scheduling design used by the farmer to the AquaCrop model recommendations. Data analysis showed that the farmer irrigates almost every day, which res
