    Sammanfattning : PCR is widely employed as a rapid, sensitive and specific molecular diagnostic technique in clinical diagnosis, environmental investigations and for monitoring biotechnical processes. However, the full potential of diagnostic PCR is limited, in part, by the presence of PCR-inhibitory substances in biological samples. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Blood protein coated model biomaterials : preparation, and cell and tissue response

    Författare :Eva Jansson; Hans Elwing; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Solid biomaterials are widely used in bone and in soft tissue applications. Problems may then arise due to a prolonged inflammation in the proximity of the implant, resulting in the formation of a fibrous capsule and a low vascularisation near the interface. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Growth regulation in sarcomas : studies in vivo and in cell culture

    Författare :Avni Abdiu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Sarcomas are malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin, and can arise in soft-tissue and in bones. It has been suggested that the abnormal growth regulation in sarcoma cells may be due to an autocrine mechanism, in which the cells are stimulated by an endogenous production of growth factors.

  4. 4. The role of red blood cells in inflammation and remodeling

    Författare :Karin Fredriksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Red blood cells; fibroblast; inflammation; remodeling; fibrosis;

    Sammanfattning : Besides being carriers of oxygen and carbon dioxide, red blood cells (RBCs) also have a scavenger function, binding inflammatory mediators to surface receptors. Animal and experimental models have suggested a role for RBCs in inflammatory and fibrotic responses and patients with idiopathic pulmonary hemosiderosis, a disease characterized by lung hemorrhage, frequently develop fibrosis.

  5. 5. Human truncated thioredoxin (Trx80) as a novel mitogenic cytokine for white blood cells

    Författare :Klas Pekkari; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Thioredoxin (Trx) is a 12 kDa protein present in all species with a well-conserved active site sequence comprising -Cys-Gly-Pro-Cys-, which catalyzes oxido-reductase reactions. Trx regulates the activity of transcription factors and intracellular signalling pathways, and secreted Trx is a co-cytokine with several interleukins. LÄS MER
