1. Development and evaluation of a subunit DIVA vaccine against bluetongue virus serotype 8 in cattle
Sammanfattning : Bluetongue virus (BTV) causes the primarily vector-borne bluetongue disease of ruminants, which poses a permanent threat to Europe since new serotypes and strains are frequently introduced. Vaccination of cattle is essential to control BTV outbreaks. LÄS MER
2. Treponema spp. in porcine skin ulcers : clinical aspects
Sammanfattning : The hypothesis tested in this work is that bacteria of genus Treponema play a main role when shoulder ulcers and ear necrosis occur in an infectious or severe form, and perhaps also in other skin conditions in the pig. Samples were collected from pigs in 19 Swedish herds 2010-2011. LÄS MER
3. Assessment of Valvular Aortic Stenosis by Signal Analysis of the Phonocardiogram
Sammanfattning : Aortic stenosis (AS) is one of the most prevalent valvular heart diseases in elderly people. According to the recommendations of both the American Heart Association and the European Society of Cardiology, severity assessment of AS is primarily based on echocardiographic findings. LÄS MER
4. Macrophages and neutrophils in tissue homeostasis and recovery from ischemic injury
Sammanfattning : Neutrophils and macrophages have functions beyond protection against pathogens. The overall aim of the work presented in this thesis was to identify novel tasks for these innate immune cells in maintaining homeostasis. LÄS MER
5. Dietary fatty acids increase the absorption of toxic substances and drugs by modifying different absorption pathways in the intestinal epithelium
Sammanfattning : Dietary fatty acids have surface active properties comparable to substances used as absorption enhancers of poorly absorbed drugs. The intestinal epithelium serves as a gatekeeping barrier for the absorption of toxic substances, nutrients and drugs. LÄS MER
