1. Human adenoviruses : new bioassays for antiviral screening and CD46 interaction
Sammanfattning : Adenoviruses are common pathogens all over the world. The majority of the population has at some point been infected with an adenovirus. Although severe disease can occur in otherwise healthy individuals an adenovirus infection is most commonly self limited in these cases. LÄS MER
2. Bacteria that escape predation : waterborne pathogens and their relatives
Sammanfattning : The hidden presence of opportunistic bacterial pathogens in the environment evokes concerns about emerging diseases, especially in the light of climate change. The co-evolution of bacteria and their predators (protozoa) has led to bacterial defence strategies of which some contribute to the ability of bacteria to cause disease. LÄS MER
3. Understanding Complex Diseases and Disease Causative Agents : The Machine Learning way
Sammanfattning : Diseases can be caused by foreign agents – pathogens – such as viruses, bacteria and other parasites, entering the body or by an internal malfunction of the body itself. The partial understanding of diseases like cancer and the ones caused by viruses, like the influenza A viruses (IAVs) and the human immunodeficiency virus, means we still do not have an efficient cure or defence against them.

4. Specific and nonspecific immune mechanisms in human gut : a comparative study of normal and ulcerative colitis intestine
Sammanfattning : The intestine, with its large mucosal surface area, digests and absorbs food nutrients and maintains a beneficial microbial flora in the colon. Local protective immune responses against intestinal pathogens ensure the survival of the individual. These immune reactions are both specific and non-specific in nature. LÄS MER
5. Human Pathogens and Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria in Polar Regions
Sammanfattning : Coincident with human activity in recent decades, human-associated microorganisms have arrived to the Antarctic region, possibly linked to increasing presence of scientific bases and ship-borne tourists. In the Arctic, humans have been present for a very long time, and the few parts of the Arctic without human activities is decreasing with time. LÄS MER
