1. Antibodies during pregnancy : Aspects on complications during pregnancy and complications related to transfusion
Abstract : The fetus acquires half of its genetic infonnation from the father and represents a foreign graft in pregnancy. The overall mechanisms contributing to immunologic tolerance and successful pregancy still are an enigma. Accumulating results of immunologic research, however, offer an explanation for many events in pregnancy. READ MORE

2. Immune responses in human lyme borreliosis : cytokines and IgG subclasses in relation to clinical outcome
Abstract : Background: Lyme borreliosis is a tick-borne infectious disease caused by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato. The disease is characterised by several disease stages, where multiple organ systems might be affected, e.g. the skin, nervous system, heart or joints. READ MORE

3. Antibody responses and Fc gamma receptor IIa polymorphism in relation to Plasmodium falciparum malaria
Abstract : Immunity to asexual blood-stage of Plasmodium falciparum malaria is believed to be associated with protective antibodies of certain immunoglobulin classes and subclasses. This thesis addressed the importance of antibodies in relation to malaria infection and their effective interactions with Fc gamma receptor IIa (FcyRIIa) polymorphisms. READ MORE

4. Combinatorial Methodology. Screening for affinity specific ligands to biological and artificial receptors
Abstract : Combinatorial screening methodology has been employed to select new affinity specific ligands to bilogical and artificial receptors. The screening methodology, in particular screening of combinatorial phage display peptide libraries against target molecules differing in function and shape, is focused upon. READ MORE

5. Structure and Interactions of Human IgG-Fc
Abstract : This thesis involves structure and interaction studies of the Fc fragment of human IgG. For this purpose, hIgG-Fc of different subclasses were cloned and expressed in the eukaryotic host Pichia pastoris, where relevant protein modification at the post-translational level can be obtained.
