  4. 2. Studies of Enterovirus Infection and Induction of Innate Immunity in Human Pancreatic Cells

    Author : Mahesh Anagandula; Magnus Essand; Didier Hober; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 Diabetes; Enterovirus; Innate Immunity; Pancreas;

    Abstract : Several epidemiological and clinical studies have indicated a possible role of Enterovirus (EV) infection in type 1 diabetes (T1D) development. However, the exact casual mechanism of these viruses in T1D development is not known. READ MORE

  5. 3. Adoptive T Cell Therapy of Viral Infection and Cancer : Ex vivo Expansion of Cytomegalovirus- and Prostate Antigen-specific T Cells

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is one leading cause of cancer-related death among men in Western countries. The standard therapies for localized prostate cancer include radical prostatectomy and radiation therapy. Such measures are relatively effective in the short term, but many patients ultimately relapse. READ MORE

  7. 5. Adenovirus-mediated Gene Therapy of Prostate Cancer
