  2. 1. Cytoskeletal filament systems : assembly, regulation, and interplay in mammalian cells

    Author : Mikael E Sellin; Martin Gullberg; Jeremy Thorner; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cell research; cellforskning;

    Abstract : The cell represents the basic unit of structure and function for all life. The interior of a eukaryotic cell is organized by an extensive array of protein filaments – collectively referred to as the cytoskeleton. These filaments serve diverse essential functions, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 2. It Takes Two to Tango : Bacterial heterogeneity and host cell features govern Salmonella infection

    Abstract : Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S.Tm) causes enterocolitis with significant worldwide morbidity and mortality. The general aim of this thesis is to investigate variation in host cell invasion mechanisms used by S.Tm across different host cell contexts, as well as the influence of bacterial cell-cell heterogeneity on invasion-relevant S.

    Abstract : Giardia intestinalis is a non-invasive, protozoan parasite causing the diarrheal disease giardiasis in a variety of mammals, including humans. The parasite has two main life cycle stages; disease-causing trophozoites and infectious cysts. Trophozoites colonize the host’s upper small intestine by attaching to intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). G. READ MORE
