  2. 16. Rotavirus Disease Mechanisms Diarrhea, Vomiting and Inflammation : How and Why

    Author : Marie Hagbom; Lennart Svensson; Karl-Eric Mangusson; Ove Lundgren; Niklas Arnberg; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Rotavirus infections cause diarrhea and vomiting that can lead to severe dehydration. Despite extensive tissue damage and cell death, the inflammatory response is very limited. READ MORE

  4. 17. Innate immunity in diabetes mellitus. Complement components C4BP and C3 promote survival of β cells under metabolic challenges

    Author : Klaudia Kulak; Malmö Proteinkemi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Complement System; Inflammasome; Islet Amyloid Polypeptide; Complement C3; C4b-binding protein C4BP ; Interleukin 1β; Autophagy-Related Protein 16 like 1; Diabetes mellitus; type 2;

    Abstract : The Complement system is a main effector mechanism of the innate immune system, acting to enhance clearance of pathogens, but also aids removal of biological debris from the body, including immunocomplexes, apoptotic/necrotic cells and protein aggregates. Complement regulators serve to prevent excessive inflammation and their interaction with the same materials targeted by the complement system results in ‘silent’ cleaning of wastes. READ MORE

  5. 18. Effects of reactive oxygen species on the cellular vacuolar apparatus

    Author : Johann Zdolsek; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Reactive and potentially harmful oxygen species occur, and are continuously formed, in all cells of a living organism. Increased production of these metabolites are seen in a number of pathological states, for instance in inflammatory foci or during reoxygenation of ischemic tissue. READ MORE

  6. 19. Regulation of TGFβ signaling by long non-coding RNAs and ADP-ribosylation

    Author : Panagiotis Papoutsoglou; Aristidis Moustakas; Carl-Henrik Heldin; Peter Zaphiropoulos; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TGFβ; signal transduction; long non-coding RNAs; ADP-ribosylation; transcriptional regulation; chromatin remodeling; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Abstract : Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling pathways participate in embryonic development and tissue homeostasis and have a dual role in cancer. TGFβ acts as a tumor suppressor that promotes cell cycle arrest and apoptosis at initial stages of tumorigenesis. READ MORE

  7. 20. Amyloids here, amyloids there…What’s wrong with them?

    Author : Anna Gharibyan; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Tuomas Knowels; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Amyloids; oligomers; fibrils; cytotoxicity; Alzheimer s disease; Aortic stenosis; S100A9; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Amyloid formation is inherent property of proteins which under certain circumstances can become a pathologic feature of a group of diseases called amyloidosis. There are about 30 known human amyloidosis and more than 27 identified proteins involved in these pathologies. READ MORE
