  2. 1. The function of annexin I in human neutrophils. Studies of membrane binding

    Author : Charlotta Movitz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Human neutrophils; secretion; annexin I; grancalcin; subcellular organelles; lipid rafts; DIM;

    Abstract : The neutrophil granulocyte plays an important role in host defense against infections induced by invading microorganisms. The defense mechanism is dependent on the migration of neutrophils from the blood stream to the infected area, where the intruder is phagocytosed and killed. READ MORE

  4. 2. Pathogenesis and Cell Biology of the Salmon Parasite Spironucleus salmonicida

    Author : Ásgeir Ástvaldsson; Staffan Svärd; Jon Jerlström-Hultqvist; Scott Dawson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Diplomonads; Spironucleus; Giardia; genome; annexin; oxygen stress; APEX; pathology;

    Abstract : Spironucleus species are classified as diplomonad organisms, diverse eukaryotic flagellates found in oxygen-deprived environments. Members of Spironucleus are parasitic and can infect a variety of hosts, such as mice and birds, while the majority are found to infect fish. READ MORE

  5. 3. Comparative Cell Biology in Diplomonads

    Author : Elin Einarsson; Staffan Svärd; Scott Dawson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Giardia intestinalis; Spironucleus salmonicida; intestinal parasite; hydrogenosome; encystation; gene regulation; transfection; diplomonad; antigenic variation; annexin;

    Abstract : The diplomonads are a diverse group of eukaryotic flagellates found in microaerophilic and anaerobic environments. The most studied diplomonad is the intestinal parasite Giardia intestinalis, which infects a variety of mammals and cause diarrheal disease. READ MORE

  6. 4. Cell therapy for denervated tissue

    Author : Roine El-Habta; Ludvig J. Backman; Paul J. Kingham; Patrik Danielson; António Salgado; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipose tissue-derived stem cell; cell therapy; denervation; differentiation; myoblast; peripheral nerve injury; proliferation; regeneration; skeletal muscle; stromal vascular fraction; survival; tendon; cellforskning; cell research; Medical Cell Biology; medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Background: Peripheral nerve injury results in denervation of tendons and muscles. The biology of denervated muscle has been well studied but little is known about the associated tendons. READ MORE

  7. 5. Search for Type 2 Diabetes Susceptibility Genes Using Multiple Approaches

    Author : Cecilia Lindgren; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []

    Abstract : Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a multifactorial disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia resulting from pancreatic dysfunction and insulin resistance. It is a common disorder with a complex pattern of inheritance, likely to reflect the influence of multiple genetic and environmental factors on the diabetes risk. READ MORE
