  2. 21. Structural chromosomal aberrations and neuropsychiatric disorders

    Author : Tonnie Johannesson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Autism spectrum disorders; chromosomes; FISH; balanced; translocations;

    Abstract : Infantile autism (IA) is a severe neurodevelopment disorder with a complex genetic predisposition. The underlying causes of autism are still not understood. READ MORE

    Author : Maria Nilsson; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Genetics; Biologi; Biology; divergence times; K T-boundary; phylogenetic reconstruction; Ameridelphia; Australidelphia; Notoryctes; Dromiciops; Marsupialia; mitochondrial genomes; cytogenetics; Genetik; cytogenetik;

    Abstract : The relationships of the mammalian infraclass Marsupialia have been investigated by phylogenetic analysis using completely sequenced mitochondrial genomes. The organisation and structure of the marsupial mitochondrial genomes deviates from the general mammalian structure. READ MORE

  5. 23. Toll-like receptor activation induced changes in dendritic cells

    Author : Oscar Hammarfjord; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Dendritic cells (DC) are professional antigen-presenting cells that act as a “bridge” between innate and adaptive immunity by the induction and subsequent orchestration of immune responses. The ligation of Toll-like receptors (TLR) and other innate receptors on DC determines their immune-stimulating capacity. READ MORE

  6. 24. Mapping the genome and characterization of an acetyltransferase of Trypanosoma cruzi

    Author : Stephen O Ochaya; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Trypanosoma cruzi; Chagas´disease; karyotyping; genomic; acetyltransferase;

    Abstract : Trypanosoma cruzi (T.cruzi) is a flagellate protozoan parasite that causes Chagas' disease and is most common in Latin American countries. The disease currently infects over 13 million persons and about 100 million more are at risk. Despite basic research for many years, there is neither a vaccine nor useful drugs available to combat the disease. READ MORE

  7. 25. The methodology and significance of minimal residual disease detection after allogeneic stem cell transplantation

    Author : Mehmet Uzunel; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Minimal Residual Disease; Stem Cell Transplantation; ALL; AML; CML; Relapse;

    Abstract : Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is the choice of therapy for leukemia patients who respond poorly to conventional chemotherapy. Despite high remission rates after SCT, relapse of the underlying disease remains one of the most frequent causes of treatment failure. READ MORE
