  2. 1. Hydrodemetallization of Petroleum - Reaction Kinetics, Activity Decay and Long-life Catalysts

    Author : Fei-Xiang Long; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; catalyst deactivation; large pore catalyst; hydroprocessing; hydrodemetallization; fibrillar alumina support; hydrotreating; kinetics; metal porphyrin; multiresponse parameter estimation; HDM;

    Abstract : Hydrodemetallization (HDM) is an indispensable step in industrial catalytic hydroprocessing of residual oils. To develop improved HDM catalysts and reactors, a detailed knowledge of the reaction mechanisms and kinetics, and a good understanding of the mechanisms and process of the catalyst decaying are very important.

  4. 2. Remodeling of the pulmonary circulation - a novel response to allergic airway inflammation

    Author : Kristina Rydell-Törmänen; Luftvägsinflammation; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vascular remodeling; OVA; HDM; asthma;

    Abstract : Asthma is characterized, not only by inflammation but also by airway and vascular remodeling. Airway remodeling is established early in disease, structural alterations have been found in children, and is thought to contribute to asthma symptoms. Unfortunately, airway remodeling is considered difficult to reverse and it seldom resolves completely. READ MORE

  5. 3. Managing Urban Disaster Risk: Analysis and Adaptation Frameworks for Integrated Settlement Development Programming for the Urban Poor

    Author : Christine Wamsler; Boende och bostadsutveckling; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; poverty reduction; urban planning; vulnerability; adaptation; settlement development planning; development assistance; disaster; social housing; disaster risk management; prevention; mainstreaming; El Salvador; mitigation; risk accumulation; risk reduction;

    Abstract : The damage caused by the dramatic worldwide increase in ‘natural’ disasters is staggering, with the poor in developing countries being most at risk. Disasters make their already precarious living conditions worse, creating a vicious circle of poverty from which they find it hard to escape. READ MORE

  7. 5. p53 guardian of the genome and target for improved treatment of leukemia

    Author : Hareth Nahi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : p53; p14ARF; PRIMA; RITA; AML; CLL; HDM-2;

    Abstract : P53 acts in several cellular processes as cell cycle checkpoints, DNA repair senescence and the surveillance of genomic integrity. Wt p53 inhibits cancer processes by causing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. P53 is strongly regulated by the HDM-2 protein, which builds a complex with p53 leading to proteosomal degradation of p53.
