  1. 6. Islet xenotransplantation : An immunological study in the pig-to-mouse model

    Author : Birgitta Benda; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; xenotransplantation; porcine; islet; in vivo; knock-out mouse; immunohistochemistry; CsA; MDL 201; 449A; Ig; FcR; IL-6; perforin; granzyme B; macrophage; eosinophilic granulocyte; T cell; TCR; IFN- g; TNF- a; IL-2; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Clinical Immunology; klinisk immunologi;

    Abstract : Successful clinical xenotransplantation, i.e., transplantation between species, would eliminate the shortage of donor organs. In order to study the acute cellular rejection reaction following discordant xenogeneic transplantation, an experimental pig-to- mouse islet xenotransplantation model was established. READ MORE

  2. 7. Design of Oligosaccharide Libraries to Characterize Heparan Sulfate – Protein Interactions

    Author : Sindhulakshmi Kurup; Dorothe Spillmann; Ulf Lindahl; Jacob Vandenborn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Biochemistry; heparan sulfate; oligosaccharide; phage display antibodies; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Heparan sulfates (HSs) are a class of anionic carbohydrate chains found at cell surfaces and in the extracellular matrix where they interact with a number of proteins. HS is characterized by extreme structural heterogeneity, and has been implicated in a number of biological phenomenon like embryogenesis, morphogen gradient formation and signalling of growth factors such as FGF, PDGF etc. READ MORE

  3. 8. Coal, commerce and communism : Empirical studies on energy history in the Czech Republic

    Author : Hana Nielsen; Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; industrialization; coal; modern economic growth; central planning; iron and steel; energy efficiency;

    Abstract : This thesis employs an international comparative perspective to empirically analyse the Czech energy transition between 1830 and 2010. It addresses the utilization of energy in shaping modern economic growth through structural and technological change and the implications of those changes on specialization and foreign trade.

  4. 9. Evidence in practice : On knowledge use and learning in social work

    Author : Gunilla Avby; Per- Erik Ellström; Per Nilsen; Lennart Svensson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Knowledge; knowledge use; learning; evidence-based practice; social work practice; Kunskap; kunskapsanvändning; lärande; evidensbaserad praktik; socialt arbete;

    Abstract : Against the backdrop of the transformations in the entire framing of professional work, social work has come under close scrutiny in many countries, including Sweden. Doubts have been raised about practitioners’ existing knowledge base, and the importance of practitioners engaging in learning and the renewal and extension of professional capacities has been emphasized.

  5. 10. Structural studies of three cell signaling proteins : crystal structures of EphB1, PTPA, and YegS

    Author : Amin Bakali; Pär Nordlund; Wenqing Xu; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; protein production; structural genomics; cell signaling; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

    Abstract : Kinases and phosphatases are key regulatory proteins in the cell. The disruption of their activities leads ultimately to the abolishment of the homeostasis of the cell, and is frequently correlated with cancer. EphB1 is a member of the largest family of receptor tyrosine kinases. It is associated with neurogenesis, angiogenesis, and cancer. READ MORE
