  2. 1. Helicobacter pylori Sialic Acid-Specific Surface Lectin

    Author : Siiri Hirmo; Enheten för infektionssjukdomar; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bakteriologi; mycology; Mikrobiologi; virology; bacteriology; haemagglutinin; Helicobacter pylori; sialic acid; sialidase; gastrointestinal mucin; milk glycoprotein; Microbiology; resonant mirror biosensor; virologi; mykologi;

    Abstract : Helicobacter pylori is a gastric pathogen colonising the gastric mucus layer and epithelium of gastric tissue and is associated with chronic type B gastritis and peptic ulcer disease. The attachment of H. pylori to gastric epithelial cells involves several structures recognised by specific bacterial surface proteins. READ MORE

  4. 2. Immunobiochemical significance of Trypanosoma rangeli in the study of Trypanosoma cruzi

    Author : Azael Patiño Saldaña; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Trypanosoma rangeli is a haemoflagellate that infects humans nonpathogenically in some areas in which T. cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas' disease, is endemic. Since common biological and immunochemical characteristics have been described for these parasites, a detailed study of their relationship is needed. READ MORE

  5. 3. Genetic Screening in Patients Suspected of Inherited Bleeding Disorders

    Author : Marcus Fager Ferrari; Malmö Klinisk koagulationsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bleeding; Inherited Bleeding Disorders; Platelet Dysfunction; Thrombocytopenia; Genetic Screening; High-Throughput Sequencing; STX11; STXBP2; UNC13D; FGB; COL1A1; COL3A1; COL5A1; COL5A2; GNE; Sialic Acid; Oseltamivir;

    Abstract : Inherited bleeding disorders constitute a heterogeneous group of genetic diseases, affecting virtually all major components of the hemostatic system. The diagnostics are potentially complex, and a high proportion of patients remain without a conclusive diagnosis following work-up. READ MORE

  6. 4. Biolubrication: Structural investigation of lubricin and its glycosylation

    Author : Liaqat Ali; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Lubricin; mass spectrometry; EPAPTTPK; GALNTs; biolubricator;

    Abstract : The sliding articular cartilage surfaces of the human diarthrodial joints are surrounded by biolubricating synovial fluid (SF), creating a perfect low friction biological biobearing structure with excellent lubrication and wear resistance, even during motion. Lubrication is predominately provided by surface adhered biomolecules including phospholipids, hyaluronic acid and synovial lubricin. READ MORE

  7. 5. Glycan-based interactions of Streptococcus pneumoniae and the host

    Author : Karina Hentrich; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Streptococcus pneumoniae is commonly found as an asymptomatic colonizer of the nasopharynx of children, but it can also translocate to normally sterile body sites and cause severe diseases, like pneumonia, septicemia or meningitis. Pneumococci spread via aerosols. READ MORE
