11. Electrocatalytic properties of Ni hydroxides with Zn or Co in the Ni matrix
Sammanfattning : The majority of the work in this thesis has been made with the improvement of the systems for electrochemical co-generation of chemicals and electricity in mind. This is an appealing but challenging way of producing chemicals with energy as a bi-product, and is commonly referred to as “green chemistry”. LÄS MER
12. Structural and functional studies of class A scavenger receptors MARCO (SCARA2) and SCARA5
Sammanfattning : Our bodies are constantly exposed to various microorganisms and there is a constant battle between their survival and ours. Fortunately we are equipped with our immune system that takes remarkably good care of us, but when it fails we all know the consequences. LÄS MER
13. Toll-like receptors in airway inflammation in vitro and in vivo
Sammanfattning : During evolution a variety of solutions has been developed by different living organisms in order to protect itself from invading potential pathogens and particles. Protection of the host is essential for its survival and involves efficient recognition and elimination of potential pathogens. LÄS MER
14. Novel potential targets for treatment of airway inflammation
Sammanfattning : Allergy is a complex biological response mediated by several different cell types including B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes and eosinophils. From clinical observations it is well-known that microbial infections, in particular viruses, can cause exacerbation of allergic rhinitis and asthma. LÄS MER
15. Pattern-recognition receptors and neutrophils in cancer inflammation
Sammanfattning : Chronic inflammation, induced by the use of tobacco and alcohol, or caused by infections has long been suggested to constitute a risk factor for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The innate immunity is the first line of defense against pathogens, comprising physical and chemical barriers, anti-microbial peptides, pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs) as well as different kinds of cells, including neutrophils.
