    Sammanfattning : One of the major problems with malignant brain tumours, such as glioblastoma multiforme, is that despite being able to remove the major bulk of the tumour through surgery and treating the patients with chemotherapy and radiotherapy, we know that tumour cells have already spread throughout the brain. Furthermore, we now know that the glioblastoma cells effectively suppress the patients’ own anti-tumour response. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : When blood is exposed to foreign materials or injured tissue, several defense systems are activated. The contact with an artificial surface leads to activation of FXII, the first proenzyme of the plasma contact activation system, with concomitant triggering of the intrinsic coagulation and also the fibrinolytic-, kallikrein- and complement systems.
