  1. 16. Mechanisms and mediators of apoptosis : with special reference to hematological disorders

    Author : Bengt Fadeel; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : apoptosis; Bcl-2; caspases; chemotherapy; chronic granulomatous disease; familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis; Fas; homology-based modeling; neutrophils; phosphatidylserine; reactive oxygen species;

    Abstract : Life and death are inextricably entwined. Naturally occurring cell death or apoptosis is essential for the of homeostasis and serves to remove extraneous or dangerous cells in a swift and unobtrusive manner. work has demonstrated that such cell death is genetically regulated and transpires according to evolutionarily conserved pathways.

  2. 17. Simulation of Combustion and Fire-Induced Flows in Enclosures

    Author : Heimo Tuovinen; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cumbustion; Chemical kinetics; Flamelet model; CFD models; Fire-induced flows;

    Abstract : Numerical modeling of combustion in flames and gas flows and gas flows generated by fires in compartments has been carried out. The laminar flamelet model has been used to model combustion in different degrees of vitiation in order to model fire gas recirculation which occurs in compartment fires. READ MORE

  3. 18. Radiation Chemistry of Aqueous Solutions Related to Nuclear Reactor Systems and Spent Fuel Management

    Author : Tim Lundström; Mats Jonsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In this thesis the rate constants for a number of radical reactions in aqueous solution have been studied in a wide temperature range. The reactions of H with H2O2, OH and HO2 and the reactions of HO2 with OH, Fe2+ and Cu2+ have been studied. READ MORE

  4. 19. Small-Scale Dosimetry for the Testis: Applications in Nuclear Medicine Diagnostics and Therapy

    Author : Suaad Meerkhan; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Testis; 111-In; Autoradiography; Biodistribution; Small-Scale; Monte Carlo; Dosimetry; spermatogonia; gammaH2AX; immunofluorescence;

    Abstract : It is well known that the testicles are among the most radiosensitive tissue, and constitute an important critical target for both external and internal radiation during diagnostic and therapeutic use of radionuclides. In systemic radionuclide therapy where very high activities are administered, the testis may become a dose-limiting organ; often with a complex, non-uniform activity distribution and a resulting non-uniform absorbed-dose distribution.

  5. 20. HER2-receptor quantification in breast cancer patients by imaging with ABY-025 Affibody and PET

    Author : Ali Alhuseinalkhudhur; Henrik Lindman; Jens Sörensen; Mark Lubberink; Irina Velikyan; Rimma Axelsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PET; Breast cancer; HER2; Affibody; ABY-025; Molecular imaging; Kinetic modelling; Brain metastasis;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. Human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) is overexpressed in up to 20% of breast cancer cases and is considered an important prognostic factor and a therapeutic target. READ MORE
