  4. 7. Defining the role of migratory dendritic cells in priming T cells to mycobacteria

    Author : Veronika Krmeská; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells that bridge innate and adaptive immunity by priming T cells. DCs residing at body surfaces such as skin sense invading microbes and respond by internalizing the microbe at the site of infection and subsequently migrating to the draining lymph node (dLN) where they present microbial antigen and other requisite signals to T cells that arm the T cells to fight-off the infection.

  5. 8. Regulation of TGF-β Signaling by Post-Translational Modifications

    Author : Peter Lönn; Aristidis Moustakas; Carl-Henrik Heldin; Petra Knaus; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TGF-β; Smad; PARP-1; PARG; ALK5; SIK; signal transduction; transcription; post-translational modification; phosphorylation; ubiquitin; ADP-ribosylation; DNA-binding; receptor degradation; Cell and molecular biology; Cell- och molekylärbiologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Cell Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling is initiated when the ligand binds to type II and type I serine/threonine kinase receptors at the cell surface. Activated TGF-β type I receptors phosphorylate R-Smads which relocate, together with co-Smads, to the cell nucleus and regulate transcription. READ MORE

  6. 9. Integration in global development projects : A study of new product development and production relocation projects

    Author : Paraskeva Wlazlak; Glenn Johansson; Kristina Säfsten; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : integration; national culture; linguistic differences; new product development; production relocation;

    Abstract : In today’s constantly changing environment globalization offers opportunities as well as threats to manufacturing companies. One trend in industry is that to meet customer demands and global competition, manufacturing companies need to frequently introduce new products to the market at the right time and cost. READ MORE

  7. 10. Proactivity at work

    Author : Kin Andersson; Annika Lantz; Kerstin Isaksson; Annika Härenstam; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Job design; work task analysis; proactivity; unemployment; attitudes; personal initiative; job-search behaviour; group initiative; group processes; Psychology; Psykologi;

    Abstract : Proactive behaviour implies taking initiative and mastering unexpected situations, and hence, is desirable in different situations. The present thesis includes three empirical studies intended to understand the consequences of proactive behaviour, as well as the factors that contribute to proactive behaviour at work and when facing unemployment.
