  2. 16. Single-chain antibody construction and functional mapping of the monoclonal antibody TS1 : Its interaction with the antigen and the anti-idiotype

    Abstract : The aims of this study are to synthesize and produce a single-chain antibody (scFv) of the anti-cytokeratin 8 monoclonal IgG antibody TS1 and to functionally map amino acid residues important for the interaction with its antigen and the anti-idiotypic antibody TS1. The TS1 antibody has been shown to be effective in binding cytokeratin 8 (CK8) expressed in tumors in vivo and is proposed to be useful in immunotargeting and/or immunotherapy. READ MORE

  4. 17. Telomere analysis of normal and neoplastic hematopoietic cells : studies focusing on fluorescence in situ hybridization and flow cytometry

    Author : Magnus Hultdin; Umeå universitet; []

  6. 19. Cell responses in infected and cystic fibrosis respiratory epithelium

    Author : Rashida Hussain; Godfried M . Roomans; Maria Björkqvist; Ferenc Karpati; Hans Kollberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; airway epithelial cells; cystic fibrosis; bacterial infection; CFTR; ENaC; chloride transport; intracellular calcium; P. aeruginosa internalization; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    Abstract : Respiratory Epithelium. Örebro Studies in Medicine 99. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a mutation in a cAMP-activated chloride (Cl-) channel (CFTR). Mortality and morbidity in CF is mainly due to the deregulated responses of the airway epithelial cells. READ MORE

  7. 20. Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 : structure-function studies and its use as a reference for intramolecular distance measurements

    Author : Peter Hägglöf; Umeå universitet; []
