   Nyckelord :Medical sciences; drug resistance; drug resistance assay; clinical correlations; cancer; human; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; klinisk farmakologi; Clinical Pharmacology;

   Sammanfattning : Cellular resistance to anti-cancer drugs is considered to be the major cause of treatment failure in clinical practice. The present studies have therefore focused on ways to circumvent resistance as evaluated by an in vitro chemoresistance assay. LÄS MER

4. 3. Development and Stability of Antibiotic Resistance

   Författare :Maria Sjölund; Lars Engstrand; Dan Andersson; Pentti Huovinen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; antibiotic resistance; selection; mutation frequency; biological cost of resistance; compensatory evolution; Helicobacter pylori; normal microbiota; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; immunology; infectious diseases; Mikrobiologi; immunologi; infektionssjukdomar;

   Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is of current concern. Bacteria have become increasingly resistant to commonly used antibiotics and we are facing a growing resistance problem. The present thesis was aimed at studying the impact of antibiotic treatment on pathogenic bacteria as well as on the normal human microbiota, with focus on resistance development. LÄS MER

5. 4. Prescription – Pollution – Poo – Pandemics - Priorities : Neuraminidase Inhibitors from an Environmental Resistance Development Perspective

   Författare :Marie Nykvist; Josef D. Järhult; Mikael Leijon; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Influenza A virus; neuraminidase inhibitor; resistance; environmental; Mallard; zanamivir; avian influenza;

   Sammanfattning : The natural Influenza A virus (IAV) host is waterfowl. Human IAV is treated with neuraminidase inhibitors (NAIs), which are stockpiled worldwide in case of an IAV pandemic. As the drugs escape regular waste water treatment, they can be detected in river waters. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Against a backdrop of feminist and social scientific research on sex, female embodiment, and normality this thesis aims to discern how young women, who in adolescence have learned that their bodies are developing in ways considered ‘atypical’ for the female sex, make sense of their bodies and their situation. In focus are the ways in which the women make sense of and negotiate female embodiment; how they, particularly in stories about their interactions with others, position their embodied selves; and how norms and beliefs about sexed embodiment, heterosexual practice, and in/fertility are strengthened and challenged in the interviewees’ sense-making.
