  1. 11. Human leukocyte antigen in sickness and in health : Ankylosing spondylitis and HLA in Sweden

    Författare :Jessika Nordin; Kerstin Lindblad-Toh; Jennifer Meadows; Matthew Webster; Alison Meynert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Disease genetics; Ankylosing spondylitis; HLA typing; Imputation; Inference; Sex-stratified; HLA-B*27 independent; Association tests; Functional validation; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Molekylär genetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) plays a major role in keeping us healthy, but some of the HLA alleles can contribute to disease susceptibility. One example is HLA-B*27, which confers increased susceptibility of ankylosing spondylitis and represents one of the strongest genetic associations found in any common human disease. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Physiological demands of competitive elite cross-country skiing

    Författare :Magnus Carlsson; Michail Tonkonogi; Christer Malm; Eva Andersson; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Performance capability; maximal oxygen uptake; lactate threshold; lean mass; double poling; power output; maximal speed; sprint skiing; distance skiing.; Hälsa och välfärd; Health and Welfare;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction Researchers have, for decades, contributed to an increased collective understanding of the physiological demands in cross-country skiing; however, almost all of these studies have used either non-elite subjects and/or performances that emulate cross-country skiing. To establish the physiological demands of cross-country skiing, it is important to relate the investigated physiological variables to the competitive performance of elite skiers. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Home-cage monitoring of activity patterns of laboratory mice

    Författare :Karin Pernold; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The mouse, deriving from the house mouse, is the most common species used in biomedical research, and offers great advantages for researchers to study gene functions in a complex living organism. However, using animals as research models comes with a moral obligation to follow the 3Rs, (Refine, Reduce, Replace) and proved the best possible husbandry and welfare in order to secure scientific rigor.

  4. 14. Characterisation of Neisseria meningitidis from a virulence and immunogenic perspective that includes variations in novel vaccine antigens

    Författare :Susanne Jacobsson; Hans Fredlund; Per Olcén; Paula Mölling; Elisabeth Wedege; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Neisseria meningitidis; meningococcal disease; risk factors; vaccine; genome-derived neisserial antigens GNA ; polymerase chain reaction PCR ; sequencing; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicin; Medicine; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    Sammanfattning : Neisseria meningitidis, also referred to as meningococcus, is a Gram-negative diplococcal bacterium best known as an important cause of meningitis and septicaemia worldwide. Meningococcal disease is a rare but life-threatening illness that may progress to death despite optimal medical care including appropriate antibiotic therapy. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Transcriptome analysis of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome

    Författare :Hanna Gräns; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Fatigue is a central component of many diseases and illnesses. Fatigue of unknown etiology and pathophysiology lasting more than six months, together with at least four out of eight specified symptoms, is termed chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). LÄS MER
