  2. 1. Dynamics of HIV coreceptors and their utilization by plasma and cerebrospinal fluid HIV-1 isolates

    Author : Ulf Karlsson; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : HIV-1 infection of CD4+ immune cells requires the assistance of cellular coreceptors. The regulation of these receptors is highly dynamic. In addition to the major coreceptors, CCR5 and CXCR4, several alternative coreceptors mediate entry for selected HIV isolates in vitro, although their role in vivo is yet to be established.

  5. 3. Structural Integrity Analysis of Critical Elements of RoPax Ships

    Author : Ulf Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; safety; IACS UR S8; RoRo; experiments; ship collision; RoPax; finite element analysis; event-chain; bow-door;

    Abstract : The potentially costly consequences of a lost ship in the form of fatalities, property, cargo and related industries, as well as pollution of the environment in the form of oil spill, etc., and the public view are the driving forces for developing safer ships. Especially RoRo-ferries, i.e. READ MORE

  6. 4. Structural Safety Analysis of Bow-Doors

    Author : Ulf Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ship design; structure; safety; fatigue.; arm; IACS S8; damage; bow-door; analysis;

    Abstract : Bow-doors are one of the most vulnerable parts on a RoRo-vessel. At the same time, they are necessary for the profitability of todays RoRo-vessels.The minimum design rules for bow-door systems, stated in the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) S8, constitute the basis for the class rules.

  7. 5. Oxidative stress-related damage of retinal pigment epithelial cells : possible protective properties of autophagocytosed iron-binding proteins

    Author : Markus Karlsson; Christina Frennesson; Sven Erik Nilsson; Tino Kurz; Ulf Brunk; Anders Kvanta; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Oxidative stress is a major pathogenic factor in the development of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which is the most common cause of severe central visual impairment in the elderly population in the western world.It is believed that the degenerative process starts in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).
