  1. 1. Exploring the Chemical Evolution of Globular Clusters and their Stars : Observational Constraints on Atomic Diffusion and Cluster Pollution in NGC 6752 and M4

    Author : Pieter Gruyters; Andreas Korn; Piercarlo Bonifacio; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stars: abundances – stars: atmospheres – stars: fundamental parameters – globular clusters: individual: NGC 6752 and M4 – techniques: spectroscopic; Astronomy with specialization in Astrophysics; Astronomi med intiktning mot astrofysik;

    Abstract : Through the cosmic matter cycle, the chemical evolution of the Milky Way is imprinted in the elemental abundance patterns of late-type stars (spectral types F to K). Due to their long lifetimes ( 1 Hubble time), these stars are of particular importance when it comes to studying the build-up of elements during the early times of our Galaxy. READ MORE

  2. 2. Searching for Dyson spheres in the Milky Way

    Author : Matías Suazo; Erik Zackrisson; Andreas J. Korn; Hector Socas-Navarro; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Extraterrestrial intelligence; infrared:stars; Astronomi och astrofysik; Astronomy and Astrophysics;

    Abstract : The quest to find intelligent extraterrestrial life has captivated humanity for a long time, motivating the development of various strategies to search for signs of advanced civilizations. These strategies comprise multiple techniques and span different regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. READ MORE

  3. 3. On the Biosynthesis and Processing of Cathepsin G, Leukocyte Elastase, and Azurocidin ­ neutrophil granule members of a hematopoietic serine protease superfamily

    Author : Anders Lindmark; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; extracellular fluids; Haematology; sorting; Activation; propeptide; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Abstract : The serine proteases cathepsin G, leukocyte elastase, proteinase 3, and the inactive protease homologue azurocidin, stored in the azurophil granules of neutrophils, belong to a hematopoietic serine protease superfamily with members in mature effector cells of bone marrow origin. Promonocytic U-937 cells were used for studying the biosynthesis of cathepsin G and leukocyte elastase by biosynthetic radiolabelling. READ MORE

  4. 4. Searching for Celiac Disease Screening-detected celiac disease in an HLA-genotyped birth cohort

    Author : Sara Björck; Celiaki och diabetes; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bone mineral density; inflammation; cytokine; screening; HLA; tissue transglutaminase antibody; children; Celiac disease; vitamin D; parathyroid hormone;

    Abstract : Objectives: Celiac disease is a common immune mediated enteropathy strongly associated with HLA-DQB1*02 (DQ2), *0302 (DQ8), or both and the presence of tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies (tTGA). Prevalence studies have revealed that most affected individuals go undetected because of subclinical signs or being asymptomatic rendering screening a method for identification. READ MORE

  5. 5. Tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies in childhood celiac disease

    Author : Daniel Agardh; Pediatrisk endokrinologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immunologi; serologi; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Medicin människa och djur ; Immunology; serology; transplantation; villous atrophy; T cells; serological marker; screening; intestinal mucosa; children; celiac disease; CD25; CD8; CD4; autoantibodies; B cells; gluten-free diet; autoimmunity;

    Abstract : Celiac disease is a prevalent small bowel disease in children caused by permanent intolerance against gliadin, which is the alcohol-soluble fraction of the cereal protein gluten in wheat, rye and barley. Celiac disease is characterized by an inflammatory infiltrate of CD4+ T lymphocytes in the intestinal mucosa leading to damage of villous structure and loss of absorptive surface. READ MORE
