  2. 21. Complement-dependent defence against bacterial infection. Studies in C2 deficiency

    Author : Barbro Selander; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antibody responses; polysaccharide antigens; vaccination; mannan-binding lectin MBL ; complement; C2 deficiency; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi;

    Abstract : The complement system is critically involved in defence against bacterial infection. C2 deficiency is, apart from mannan-binding lectin (MBL) deficiency, the most common homozygous complement deficiency among Caucasians. READ MORE

  4. 22. Affinity Biosensors for Carbahydrate-Protein Interactions using Surface Plasmon Resonance

    Author : Christina Jungar; Bengt Danielsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : There is an increasing need for fast, accurate, and easy-to-use biosensors for applications in environmental, food, and pharmaceutical industry. In these thesis the interactions between immunoglobulins and lectins with their corresponding carbohydrate antigens are studied using surface plasmon resonance (SPR). READ MORE

  5. 23. Structural studies towards the understanding of biosynthesis of the lipopolysaccharide of Haemophilus influenzae

    Author : Anna Risberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Haemophilus influenzae; structural investigation; lipopolysaccharide LPS ; NMR and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry ESI-MS ;

    Abstract : The thesis Structural studies towards the understanding of biosynthesis of the lipopolysaccharide of Haemophilus influenzae involves structural investigation of LPS of four different H. influenzae strains, RM.118-28, RM.118, RM118-26 and RM. READ MORE

  6. 24. Syntheses of naturally occurring fatty acid esters of sucrose and heptose-containing oligosaccharides found in the Salmonella Ra core

    Author : Helena Ritzén; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Nine sucrose esters, acylated in the glucopyranosyl moiety, have been synthesized from the same precursor, 3-0-allyl-3',4',6'-tri-0-benzyl-4,6-0- (4-metoxybenzylidene)sucrose. The sucrose esters synthesized include the major compounds found in tobacco and potato plants, i. e. READ MORE

  7. 25. Mechanisms of P fimbriae cell activation

    Author : Maria Hedlund; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; type 1 fimbriae; LPS; glycosphingolipids; ceramide; E. coli; P fimbriae; mucosa; cytokines; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Microbial attachment to host cells plays a central role in the induction of inflammatory responses and the production of the disease. Uropathogenic Gram negative bacteria carry surface lectins that specifically recognize oligosaccharide receptor epitopes expressed on glycolipids or glycoproteins. READ MORE
