6. Adhesion-related interactions of Actinomyces and Streptococcus biofilm bacteria
Sammanfattning : Adhesion of bacteria is a key event in biofilm formation and is mediated by bacterial adhesins recognising host or bacterial partner receptors. In oral biofilm formation, primary Actinomyces and Streptococcus colonizers adhere to salivary pellicle proteins such as proline-rich proteins (PRPs) as well as to mucosal surfaces. LÄS MER
7. Functional Studies of Collagen-Binding Integrins α2β1 and α11β1 : Interplay between Integrins and Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptors
Sammanfattning : Integrins are heterodimeric cell surface receptors, composed of an α- and a β-subunit, which mediate cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions. Integrins mediate intracellular signals in response to extracellular stimuli, and cooperate with growth factor and other cytokine receptors. LÄS MER
8. The dynamic microfilament system : cellular organization of actin and profilin and their association with cell signalling
Sammanfattning : Active shape changes and movement of whole cells, and translocations within cells are essential to life. For instance, during embryogenesis cell migration is a central theme. Wound healing depends on increased and directed motile activity of several cell types. LÄS MER
9. Coeliac Disease in Childhood : On the Intestinal Mucosa and the Use of Oats
Sammanfattning : Celiaki, eller glutenintolerans, är en av våra vanligaste kroniska sjukdomar i barnaåren. Sjukdomen orsakar en kraftig inflammation i tunntarmens slemhinna efter intag av glutenhaltig föda hos personer med ärftlig benägenhet att utveckla celiaki. En frisk tarm är kraftigt veckad för att öka ytan för upptag av näringsämnen. LÄS MER
10. Aquaporins in Infection and Inflammation
Sammanfattning : The ability of eukaryotic cells to change their shape and to migrate directionally is highly dependent on active volume regulation in cells building up tissues as well as in individual cells. Transmembrane fluxes of water via specialized water channels, called aquaporins (AQPs), facilitate the changes of volume and shape, which additionally require a complex interplay between the plasma membrane and the cytoskeleton.
