1. Norovirus and rotavirus susceptibility : studies from a Nicaraguan birth cohort
Sammanfattning : Norovirus and rotavirus are major causes of pediatric acute gastroenteritis (AGE). It is estimated that norovirus is responsible for ~20% of all diarrheal diseases in children worldwide and causes approximately 200,000 deaths each year, mostly in young children and the elderly.

2. Helicobacter pylori : multitalented adaptation of binding properties
Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori infects and persistently colonizes the stomach, which results in gastritis and in some individuals peptic ulcer disease or gastric cancer. Adherence of H. pylori to the epithelium is an important factor for development of disease. LÄS MER
3. Genetic control of myasthenia gravis : a study on cytokine and co-stimulator genes and their related functions
Sammanfattning : Myasthenia gravis (MG) is a classical autoimmune disease characterised by muscle weakness due to an immune attack against the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AchR) on the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. The aim of the study was to identify the role of the genes encoding potential immune components, such as TNF, IL-1, IL-1 receptor antagonist, IL-4, IL-10, and cytotoxic T lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) in the pathogenesis of MG.

4. Separation and Further Characterization of Hematopoietic Cell Populations Based on Phenotypic and Biophysical Properties
Sammanfattning : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) are multipotent and possess self-renewal capacity. Thus, they can sustain a life-long hematopoiesis and are also capable of restoring the hematopoietic system when transplanted to a patient. LÄS MER
5. Norovirus Epidemiology : Prevalence, transmission, and determinants of disease susceptibility
Sammanfattning : Norovirus (NoV) is today recognized as the most important agent of acute human gastroenteritis, causing a high number of diarrheal episodes in both adults and children. Outbreaks in hospitals, nursing homes, day-care centers, and from consumption of contaminated food and drinking water are common. Wastewater can be a source of NoV dissemination, e. LÄS MER
