  1. 6. The glycobiology of human adenovirus infections : implications for tropism and treatment

    Författare :Naresh Chandra; Niklas Arnberg; Lars Frängsmyr; Gunnel Haldén; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; denovirus; cellular receptor; glycosaminoglycan; sialic acid; decoy receptors; tropism; epidemic keratoconjunctivitis; antiviral drugs; GAG-mimetic; obesity; medicinsk virologi; Medical Virology;

    Sammanfattning : Human adenoviruses (HAdVs) are common human pathogens, causing gastrointestinal, ocular, and respiratory infections on a regular basis. Epidemic keratoconjunctivitis (EKC) is a severe ocular infection for which no approved antivirals are available. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Factors influencing the evolution of HIV-1

    Författare :Markus Birk; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HIV; antiretroviral treatment; evolution; gag; pol; env;

    Sammanfattning : Due to the high replication rate and the low fidelity of the viral reverse transcriptase (RT), various mutations are introduced continuously into the gene pool of HIV-1. Together with recombination events this leads to the evolution of countless quasispecies. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Envelopment of retrovirus and vaccinia virus

    Författare :Kristina Wallengren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Retrovirus; Vaccinia virus; Envelopment; Host proteins; Gag-particles; IMV A17L.;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes envelopment of retrovirus and vaccinia virus. Retrovirus envelopment, i.e. budding, occurs from the plasma membrane (PM) of infected cells in an environment that is abundant with cellular proteins. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Contrast-enhanced MRI of human knee cartilage Clinical applications of the novel dGEMRIC technique to study glycosaminoglycan content in articular cartilage

    Författare :Carl Johan Tiderius; Ortopedi - klinisk och molekylär osteoporosforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi; exercise; osteoarthritis; anterior cruciate ligament; glycosaminoglycan; MRI; cartilage; dGEMRIC; knee;

    Sammanfattning : Delayed gadolinium-enhanced MRI of cartilage (dGEMRIC) is a new technique to study cartilage glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content. The negatively charged contrast agent Gd-DTPA2-, injected intravenously, distributes in the cartilage inversely to the likewise negatively charged GAG. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Tumor Selective Antiproliferative Naphthoxylosides

    Författare :Ulrika Aili; Glykobiologigruppen; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glycosaminoglycan; proteoglycan; heparan sulfate; xyloside; naphthoxyloside; histone H3 acetylation;

    Sammanfattning : Proteoglycans (PG) are highly anionic macromolecules consisting of a core protein covalently substituted with long unbranched polysaccharide chains called glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). PGs are central components in multicellular organisms, and they may occur in the extracellular matrix (ECM), at the cell surface, or in the secretory pathway. LÄS MER
