  1. 1. Airway antioxidant responses to oxidative air pollution and vitamin supplementation

    Author : Annelie Behndig; Anders Blomberg; Ian S Mudway; Ragnberth Helleday; Isabelle Romieu; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Medicine; air pollution; ozone; diesel exhaust; airway inflammation; antioxidant; vitamin C; dehydroascorbate; vitamin supplementation; Medicin; lungmedicin; Lung Medicine;

    Abstract : Air pollutants, such as ozone (O3) and diesel exhaust particles, elicit oxidative stress in the lung. Antioxidants within the respiratory tract lining fluid (RTLF) protect the underlying tissue from oxidative injury. READ MORE

  2. 2. Insight into the genetic characteristics of pneumococcal isolates

    Author : Christel Blomberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Streptococcus pneumoniae is a human pathogen and a major contributor to morbidity and mortality worldwide. It has been estimated that it is responsible for between 1-2 million deaths annually. The normal niche for the pneumococci is the nasopharynx where the bacteria can residue for months without causing any symptoms. READ MORE

    Author : Polina Velichkova; Fahmi Himo; Margareta Blomberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical chemistry; Teoretisk kemi;

    Abstract : A very important trend for studying biomolecules is computational chemistry. In particular, nowadays it is possible to use theoretical methods to figure out the catalytic mechanism of enzyme reactions. READ MORE

  4. 4. In vitro studies of natural and tumor-associated immunity in patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder

    Author : Marita Troye-Blomberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from patients with transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder (TCC-bladder) were studied using a SlCr-release assay for their in vitro cytotoxicity against a panel of allogeneic tissue culture cell lines of TCC-bladder and other origins. Control PBL were obtained from four different groups of donors. READ MORE
