  2. 1. Intraspecific variation in Rhinanthus angustifolius. Local adaptation, phenotypic plasticity and geographical structure

    Author : Anneli Jonstrup; Biodiversitet; []
    Keywords : Ecotype; Local adaptation; Phenotypic plasticity; Parallel evolution; Geographical structure; Hemiparasite; Rhinanthus;

    Abstract : Plant species often adapt to local environmental conditions, which can result in the formation of genetically and phenotypically distinct ecotypes. Ecotypes can evolve rapidly, and may be a first step in the process of ecological speciation. READ MORE

  4. 2. Ehrlichia in animals and humans

    Author : Anneli Bjöersdorff; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; seroprevalence; humans; animals; granulocytic; ehrlichiosis; Ehrlichia phagocytophila; tick-borne; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Ehrlichia phagocytophila is a tick-borne pathogen of domestic animals, which has recently been acknowledged also as a human pathogen. It is a strictly intracellular bacterium, infecting granulocytes of the host, sometimes resulting in clinical disease - granulocytic ehrlichiosis - with manifestations ranging from mild flu-like conditions to severe infections with multi-organ failure and death.

  5. 3. Effects of over-stimulation by glucose on pancreatic beta-cell functioning : studies in vitro with diazoxide

    Author : Anneli Björklund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : diabetes mellitus; diazoxide; hyperglycemia; insulin secretion; islets of Langerhans; over-stimulation;

    Abstract : Long term hyperglycemia impairs pancreatic ß-cell function. In vivo studies in rats have shown a decreased glucose-induced insulin response in the perfused pancreas after high glucose infusions. READ MORE

  6. 4. Antimicrobial activity of human seminal plasma and seminal plasma proteins

    Author : Anneli Edström; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; semenogelin; antibacterial peptides; antifungal peptides; seminal plasma; antimicrobial peptides; vaginal pH; beta-microseminoprotein; peptides;

    Abstract : Seminal plasma is semen without the spermatozoa. Human seminal plasma is a complex mixture of secretions from the sex accessory glands, mainly the seminal vesicles and the prostate. Seminal plasma has high protein content and it also contains ions, sugars and low molecular weight components. READ MORE

  7. 5. Dosimetric effects of breathing motion in radiotherapy

    Author : Anneli Edvardsson; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; radiotherapy; breathing motion; DIBH; interplay effects; VMAT; proton therapy; breast cancer; Hodgkin’s lymphoma; liver; dosimetry; treatment planning; medical physics;

    Abstract : The goal of radiotherapy is to deliver a homogeneous high dose of radiation to a tumour while minimising the dose to the surrounding healthy tissue. To achieve this, increasingly advanced treatment techniques, such as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and proton therapy, have been developed. READ MORE
