  2. 6. Design, selection and production of recombinant proteins for prevention of infectious diseases

    Author : Marianne Hansson; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The development of subunit vaccines is presently one of themain strategies for the generation of new vaccines againstinfectious diseases. The use of recombinant DNA techniques hasfacilitated the develoment of new strategies for constructionand production of subunit vaccines. READ MORE

    Abstract : Malaria is one of the major infectious diseases in the world with regard to mortality and morbidity, and the development of a vaccine against the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum is considered of high priority. The aim of the work presented in this thesis was to develop and characterize recombinant vaccine constructs based on the P. READ MORE

  6. 9. Development of a vaccine against strangles

    Author : Margareta Flock; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Strangles is an acute upper respiratory tract disease in the horse, which is characterized by purulent pharyngitis and lymphadenitis. It is caused by Streptococcus equi subsp. equi. The severe suffering and economical losses due to Streptococcus equi infections makes it one of the most important bacterial diseases in horses. READ MORE

  7. 10. Immunoglobulin-Fc receptor interactions in cytotoxicity and phagocytosis mediated by lymphocytes and monocytes

    Author : Christer Öhlander; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Antibody dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and phagocytosis mediated by lymphocytes and monocytes depend on IgG-binding Fc receptors on the effector cells. Properties of the immunoglobulin-Fc receptor interactions of human lymphocytes and monocytes were investigated using 51Cr release assays for detection of cytolysis or phagocytosis of target erythrocytes.
