  1. 1. Studies on antioxidant and lipid lowering effects on human microcirculation

    Författare :Qing Lu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Microcirculation; oxidative stress; antioxidant; smoking. hypercholesterolemia; diabetes; vitamin C; Nacetylcysteine; lipid lowering; capillary blood flow velocity; post reactive hyperemia; endothelial function.;

    Sammanfattning : In previous work from this laboratory, vital microscopy was successfully used to study rnicrocirculatcry effects of hypercholesterolemia in a rabbit model. Hypercholesterolemia caused a dramatic depression of the blood flow velocity in the conjunctiva microvessels of the rabbits. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Binding of plasma proteins by Staphylococcus epidermidis: characterisation of protein-protein interactions

    Författare :Dai-Qing Li; Diabetes - öpatofysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; mice and immunisation; biomaterial-associated infections; von Willebrand factor; thrombospondin; clusterin; Staphylococcal receptins; vitronectin; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), in particular, Staphylococcus epidermidis, have emerged as major nosocomial pathogens associated with infections of implanted medical devices. These organisms, which are among the most prevalent bacteria of the human skin and mucous membrane microflora, gain access to the surface of the implant at the insertion. LÄS MER

  3. 3. From sequence to function : Comparative studies of insect olfactory receptors

    Författare :Xiaoqing Hou; Funktionell zoologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Olfactory receptor; Heterologous expression; Pheromone; Plant volatile; Insect;

    Sammanfattning : In insects airborne odors are detected by the odorant receptors (ORs) and ionotropic receptors (IRs), located on the dendritic membrane of the olfactory sensory neurons (OSNs) housed in olfactory sensilla. The OR and IR gene families show high plasticity in lineage expansion and contraction following the birth-and-death evolutionary model. LÄS MER
