  2. 1. Immunological and Genetic Markers Predicting Treatment Outcome in Hepatitits C Virus Infection

    Author : Galia Askarieh; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; IP-10; CXCL10; CD26; hepatitis C virus; interferon; ribavirin; treatment; IL28B;

    Abstract : Hepatitis C is a blood-borne infection caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). A chronic infection, which develops in most infected subjects, may lead to liver cirrhosis with ensuing liver dysfunction and liver cancer. READ MORE

  4. 2. Natural killer cells in cancer : studies on migration and cytotoxicity

    Author : Erik Wennerberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The role of natural killer (NK) cells in cancer development has been studied extensively over the last four decades and the increasing knowledge on NK cell regulation has improved both safety and efficacy of treatment. Despite these recent advances the clinical success has to date been modest in treatment of solid tumors, owing both to suboptimal directed migration of NK cells and the tumor cell’s resistance to NK cell-mediated lysis.

  5. 3. Immune maturation and modulation in childhood allergies : Aspects of epigenetic, mucosal and systemic immune mediators in allergy development and prevention

    Author : Johanna Huoman; Maria Jenmalm; Lennart Nilsson; Petra Ina Pfefferle; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The prevalence of allergic diseases has in the past century increased among children in affluent societies. Underlying causes are incompletely disentangled, but decreased diversity in environmental and microbial exposures could drive allergy development. READ MORE

  6. 4. T cells in colon cancer; migration and effector functions

    Author : Louis Szeponik; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Treg; CRC; TIL; nSMase2; Transendothelial migration; Unconventional T cells;

    Abstract : Immune cells are recognised as one of the main players in the tumor microenvironment and targeted by many new cancer therapies. Regulatory T cells (Treg) can suppress tumor infiltrating lymphocytes which are associated with a better patient outcome. READ MORE

  7. 5. Assay development for studies of G protein-coupled receptors at the single-molecule level

    Author : Olov Wahlsten; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TIRF microscopy; colocalization; drug discovery; QCM-D; GPCR; pharmacodynamics; kinetics; equilibrium fluctuation analysis;

    Abstract : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven transmembrane (7TM) receptors,is the largest family of cell surface receptors. These receptors play a key role in transmittinga wide variety of signals across the cell membrane and are involved in physiologicalprocesses such as sensory transduction, cell-cell communication, neuronal transmission,and hormonal signaling.
