  1. 1. Crucifixion in Antiquity : An Inquiry into the Background of the New Testament Terminology of Crucifixion

    Author : Gunnar Samuelsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; crucifixion; cross; death of Jesus; Bible; New Testament; church; Christianity; philology; semantics; Jesus; execution; death sentence; impaling; suspension punishment; Golgotha; Calvary; ancient language; classical languages; Classical Greek; Latin; Hebrew Aramaic; ancient Greece; Roman empire; Roman world; Jerusalem;

    Abstract : This study investigates the philological aspects of how ancient Greek, Latin and Hebrew/Aramaic texts, including the New Testament, depict the practice of punishment by crucifixion. A survey of the ancient text material shows that there has been a too narrow view of the “crucifixion” terminology. READ MORE

  2. 2. Metastatic Breast Cancer: Biomolecular Characterization and Targeted Therapy

    Author : Siker Kimbung; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Metastatic breast cancer; biomarker conversion; liver metastasis-selective genes; prognosis; BRCA1; PARP1;

    Abstract : Metastasis is a complex process that remains a major challenge in the clinical management of cancer, because most cancer-related deaths are attributed to disseminated disease rather than the primary tumor. Despite the significant advances in the prediction of prognosis, and therapeutic management of primary breast cancers, coupled with the substantial improvement in our understanding of the molecular determinants of metastasis, breast cancer relapse and death rates remain unacceptably high.

  4. 4. An evolutionary basis for protein design and structure prediction

    Author : Christoffer Norn; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein evolution; Biophysics; Protein design; Protein structure prediction;

    Abstract : The sequence diversity of protein families is a result of the biophysical selection pressures that shaped their evolutionary history. Among the dominant pressures is selection for protein thermostability, which in itself is an attractive target in protein engineering because of its importance for various biopharmaceutical properties, the performance of industrial enzymes, and the ability to design new protein functions.

  5. 5. Immune deterioration in HIV-1 and HIV-2 infection with a focus on CD8 T cell exhaustion

    Author : Lydia Scharf; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Thanks to the development of antiretroviral treatment (ART), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is now considered a chronic infection rather than the death sentence it used to be. Despite constant expansion and improvement of treatment options, even optimal therapy cannot prevent the impact of HIV on the human immune system. READ MORE
