  1. 31. The importance of monocyte and granulocyte activation in rheumatoid arthritis and primary Sjögren's syndrome

    Författare :Ingunn Torsteinsdóttir; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Rheumatoid arthritis; primary Sjögren s syndrome; peripheral blood; monocyte; macrophage; neutrophil; eosinophil; adhesion; phagocytosis; respiratory burst; CRP; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Clinical Chemistry; klinisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Macrophages and neutrophils infiltrate the synovium and synovial fluid in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). These cells are considered to contribute to the destructive process in RA.The expression of adhesion and phagocytosis receptors on the surface of peripheral granulocytes and monocytes was increased in patients with RA.

  3. 32. Characterization and Evolution of Transmembrane Proteins with Focus on G-protein coupled receptors in Pre-vertebrate Species

    Författare :Karl J. V. Nordström; Helgi B. Schiöth; Robert Fredriksson; Teresa Attwood; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; G protein-coupled receptors; GPCR; Membrane protein; Rhodopsin; Adhesion; Secretin; Evolution; Bioinformatics; Phylogeny; Pharmacological research; Farmakologisk forskning; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik; Bioinformatik; Bioinformatics; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution;

    Sammanfattning : G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are one of the largest protein families in mammals. GPCRs are instrumental for hormonal and neurotransmitter signalling and are important in all major physiological systems of the body. LÄS MER

  4. 33. The Enemy Below - Adhesion and Friction of Ship Hull Fouling

    Författare :Dinis Oliveira; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ship resistance; in-water hull cleaning; roughness; biofouling; hull grooming; frictional resistance; adhesion strength; turbulent boundary layer; hull form factor;

    Sammanfattning : Below the waterline, commercial ships are good targets for marine organisms to attach and proliferate, a problem commonly known as biofouling. A fouled hull means higher hydrodynamic resistance, which can result in significant fuel penalties. LÄS MER

  5. 34. On CXC Chemokines in Endotoxin-Induced Liver Injury

    Författare :Xiang Li; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ortopedi; traumatologi; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; Surgery; patologisk anatomi; Patologi allmän ; pathological anatomy; General pathology; intravital microscopy; liver damage; Adhesion; CXC chemokines;

    Sammanfattning : Leukocyte recruitment is a rate-limiting step in endotoxemic liver injury. Leukocyte extravasation is a multistep process, supported by multiple combinations of adhesion molecules and chemokine receptors. This thesis examined the mechanisms of activation, adhesion and extravascular infiltration of leukocytes in endotoxin-induced liver injury. LÄS MER

  7. 35. Identification, Characterization and Evolution of Membrane-bound Proteins

    Författare :Pär J. Höglund; Helgi B. Schiöth; Robert Fredriksson; Gert Vriend; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; G protein-coupled receptor; GPCR; Solute Carriers; SLC; Bioinformatics; Evolution; Rhodopsin; Adhesion; Phylogeny; Pharmacology; Farmakologi;

    Sammanfattning : Membrane proteins constitute approximately 30% of all genes in the human genome and two large families of membrane proteins are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and Solute Carriers (SLCs) with about 800 and 380 human genes, respectively.In Papers I, II and IV, we report 16 novel human Adhesion GPCRs found by searches in NCBI and Celera databases.
