  2. 1. VEGF-mediated vascular functions in health and disease

    Author : Ziquan Cao; Eric Wahlberg; Yihai Cao; Toste Länne; Kayoko Hosaka; Jack L. Arbiser; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Angiogenesis is essential for physiological processes including embryonic development, tissue regeneration, and reproduction. Under various pathological conditions the same angiogenic process contribute to the onset, development, and progression of many human diseases including cancer, diabetic complications, ocular disease, chronic inflammation and cardiovascular disease.

  4. 2. Receptor Upregulation and MAPK Activity in Arteries and Bronchi Following Secondhand Smoke Exposure

    Author : Lei Cao; Lund Medicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; coronary arteries; cerebral arteries; 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor; endothelin receptor; secondhand smoke exposure; bronchi;

    Abstract : Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. Contractile receptor changes have been observed in several vascular diseases. The intracellular mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways are suggested to be associated with receptor upregulation. READ MORE

  5. 3. First-Principles Modeling of Selected Heterogeneous Reactions Catalyzed by Noble-Metal Nanoparticles

    Author : Xinrui Cao; Yi Luo; Peijun Hu; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Heterogeneous catalysis is an important branch in catalysis, in which the catalyst and reactants are in different physical phases. In this thesis, we have carried out extensive first-principles calculations to explore the selected heterogeneous reactions catalyzed by the noble-metal nanoparticles. READ MORE

  6. 4. CD25+CD4+ regulatory T cells in rheumatic disease

    Author : Duojia Cao; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Human; rheumatic disease; synovial fluid; regulatory T cells; FOXP3; suppression; tolerance; autoimmunity;

    Abstract : CD25+CD4+ T cells represent a unique cell lineage of thymus derived naturally occurring regulatory T cells. The gene Foxp3 (mouse)/ FOXP3(human) is strictly related to their generation in the thymus and their regulatory function in the periphery. READ MORE

  7. 5. Food-Related Gram-Positive Bacteria: Enterotoxin A Expression in Staphylococcus aureus and a New Regulation Mechanism in Lactococcus lactis

    Author : Rong Cao; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Lactococcus lactis; multiple inhibition kinetics; dehydrogenase; ATP; ADP; food factors; biopreservatives; staphylococcal food poisoning; SEA; prophage induction; enterotoxin A; Staphylococcus aureus;

    Abstract : Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) is the most common enterotoxin found in outbreaks of staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP). Based on the amount of SEA produced, S. aureus strains were divided into two main groups, high- and low-SEA-producing strains. READ MORE
