  2. 6. Innate immune responses in vivo after antigen administration : implications for vaccine development

    Author : Frank Liang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Inducing high magnitude of antibodies with epitope breadth over prolonged periods of time is likely a prerequisite to prevent several of the world’s most serious infectious diseases such as HIV-1, malaria and tuberculosis for which there are no vaccines yet. A much better understanding of the innate immune mechanisms that are critical for inducing strong responses to vaccination is therefore essential. READ MORE

  4. 7. Expression, recognition and usage of laminin-8 (a4b1g1, Lm-411) by monocytes and neutrophils

    Author : Zenebech Wondimu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Basement membrane; laminins; myeloid cells; extravasation; migration.;

    Abstract : Laminins (LNs) are a family of large alphabetagamma heterotrimeric glycoproteins found in all basement membranes (BMs). They are expressed in a tissue- and developmental stagespecific manner and implicated in vital cellular functions, including cell adhesion, migration and signaling. READ MORE

  5. 8. Techniques for Efficient Implementation of FIR and Particle Filtering

    Author : Syed Asad Alam; Oscar Gustafsson; Kent Palmkvist; Yajun Yu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; FIR filter; Particle filter; architecture; ASIC; FPGA;

    Abstract : FIR filters occupy a central place many signal processing applications which either alter the shape, frequency or the sampling frequency of the signal. FIR filters are used because of their stability and possibility to have linear-phase but require a high filter order to achieve the same magnitude specifications as compared to IIR filters.

  6. 9. Immunological markers and clinical characteristics of pulmonary inflammation

    Author : Helga Haugom Olsen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) includes a broad spectrum of disorders affecting the lung parenchyma. Common to these conditions is the exacerbated pulmonary immunological response leading to inflammation, disordered tissue healing, and, in a proportion of patients, chronic pulmonary fibrosis.

  7. 10. Extratumoral effects of highly aggressive prostate cancer

    Author : Kerstin Strömvall; Anders Bergh; Sofia Halin Bergström; Göran Landberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; tumor instructed normal tissue; TINT; non-malignant prostate tissue; lymph nodes; lymph node metastasis; pre-metastatic niche; tumor microenvironment; tumor macroenvironment; tumor immunoediting; Dunning rat model of prostate cancer;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer (PC) is the most common cancer in Sweden. Most patients have slow growing tumors that will not cause them any harm within their lifetime, but some have aggressive tumors and will die from their disease. READ MORE
