2. 1. A study of the cytoplasmic domains of C-CAM isoforms : calmodulin binding and phosphorylation

   Author : Magnus Edlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : adhesion molecules; adhesion regulation; BGP; Bgp; biliary glycoprotein; Calcium; Calmodulin; CaM; CAMs; carcinoembryonic antigen gene family; C-CAM; CEA; cell adhesion; Immunoglobulin super-family; PKC; protein kinase C.;

   Abstract : C-CAM, a member of the Immunoglobulin Superfamily, was originally identified as an intercellular adhesion molecule, and can mediate cell-cell adhesion by homophilic binding. However, it also appears in high concentrations in luminal, microvillar surfaces. READ MORE

4. 2. Predictable and Scalable Medium Access Control for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks

   Author : Katrin Sjöberg Bilstrup; Erik G. Ström; Elisabeth Uhlemann; Maria Kihl; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; CSMA; self-organizing TDMA; STDMA; medium access control; MAC; vehicular ad hoc networks; VANET; vehicle-to-vehicle communications; V2V; V2X; IEEE 802.11p; WAVE; DSRC; ETSI ITS-G5; ISO CALM M5; real-time communications; scalability; traffic safety; cooperative system; Datatransmission; Datatransmission;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis work investigates two medium access control (MAC) methods, when used in traffic safety applications over vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs). The MAC methods are carrier sense multiple access (CSMA), as specified by the leading standard for VANETs IEEE 802. READ MORE

5. 3. A study of the cell adhesions molecules, E-cadherin and C-CAM, and the intermediate filaments, nestin, in craniofacial and tooth development

   Author : Catharina Terling; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : cell adhesion molecules; epithelial fusion; C-CAM; E-cadherin; junctional epithelium; nestin; odontogenesis; palate;

   Abstract : Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are involved in cell migration, morphogenesis, and cell differentiation within the embryo, and later in the maintenance of the multicellular organism. The aim of the present investigation was to analyze and compare the distribution of the CAMs, E-cadherin and C-CAM, during odontogenesis and palate formation, and furthermore, to analyze the expression of the intermediate filament (IF), nestin, in odontogenesis.

6. 4. Cam Roller Contact : Surfaces and Tribology

   Author : Frédéric Cabanettes; Bengt-Göran Rosén; Ulf Olofsson; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wear reduction; camshaft; roller; surface topography; relocation; elasto plastic rough contact; elasto hydrodynamic lubrication; Mechanical engineering; Maskinteknik;

   Abstract : The automotive industry and the design of engines are strongly ruled by performance and legislation demands. In the valve train, mechanical components such as camshafts and rollers are defined by specifications including more and more constraints concerning their ability to face wear thus prolonging lifetime.

7. 5. Photosensitivity in cutaneous lupus erythematosus clinical and experimental studies

   Author : Filippa Nyberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : Lupus Erythematosus; skin; photosensitivity; polymorphous light eruption PLE ; adhesion molecules; ICAM-1; VCAM-1; E-selectin; fibroblasts; cytokines; UV light; UVA; UVB;

   Abstract : Lupus erythematosus (LE) is an autoimmune disease in which the skin is one of the main target organs. Photosensitivity is a common feature for the different subtypes of cutaneous LE, but photosensitivity has not been well defined. READ MORE
