  4. 4. Control of Epstein-Barr virus infection by cytotoxic T lymphocytes

    Författare :Pedro-Otavio de Campos-Lima; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Epstein-Barr virus; Cytotoxic T lymphocytes; T cell receptor; CTLescape mutants;

    Sammanfattning : Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) play a critical role in response to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), a widespread human herpes virus that persists in healthy carriers as a latent infection of B cells and is implicated in the pathogenesis of lymphoid and epithelial cell malignancies. Six virus encoded nuclear antigens, EBNA1-6, and three membrane proteins, LMP1, -2A and -2B, are regularly detected in EBV transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs). LÄS MER

  5. 5. Efficient Remote Gas Inspection with an Autonomous Mobile Robot

    Författare :Muhammad Asif Arain; Achim Lilienthal; Erik Schaffernicht; Victor Hernandez Bennetts; Marcello Cirillo; Marco Trincavelli; Pedro Lima; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; environmental monitoring; measurement planning; remote gas sensing; mobile robot olfaction; service robots;

    Sammanfattning : Human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are one of the major sources of global warming, which is threatening to reach a tipping point. Inspection systems that can provide direct information about critical factors causing global warming, such as systems for gas detection and location of gas sources, are urgently needed to analyze the fugitive emissions and take necessary actions.
