  1. 1. Streptococcal immunoglobulin degrading enzymes of the IdeS and IgdE family

    Författare :Christian Spoerry; Ulrich von Pawel-Rammingen; Heiko Herwald; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Streptococcus; S. pyogenes; S. agalactiae; S. suis; S. porcinus; S. pseudoporcinus; S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus; protease; immunoglobulin; immune evasion; IdeS; IgdE; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Bacteria of the genus Streptococcus are common asymptomatic colonisers of humans and animals. As opportunistic pathogens they can however, depending on their host’s immune status and other circumstances, cause mild to very severe infections. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Glycan dependent Helicobacter spp. and Streptococcus oralis binding to mucins in the gastric and oral mucosal niches

    Författare :Gurdeep Chahal; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Helicobacter pylori; Streptococcus; diversity; glycosylation;

    Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori infects the stomach of half of the world’s population, while Helicobacter suis colonizes pigs and is the most common non-H. pylori Helicobacter species that also infects human stomach. Infection with Helicobacter spp. is associated with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric cancer. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Streptococcus suis : occurrence, identification and characteristics in Swedish pigs

    Författare :Anna Werinder; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Streptococcus suis is one of the most important bacterial pathogens in pigs globally, and it is also an emerging zoonotic agent. The aim of this thesis was to gain further knowledge of the occurrence and characteristics of S. suis in Swedish pigs. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Synthesis of Conformationally Restricted Oligosaccharides

    Författare :Michael Wilstermann; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Streptococcus suis; E. coli; neoglycolipid; ganglioside-lactam; xylose; methylene acetal; sialic acid; Conformational Restriction; galabiose; Organic chemistry; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids that often are present in increased amounts on tumor cells. Since the gangliosides are hydroxy-acids, they can form lactones. The lactones have been suspected to be more immunogenic than the open forms, but are in practise poor immunogens due to their ease of hydrolysis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Carbohydrate-Based Inhibitors of Pathogen Adhesion to Cell Surface Glycoconjugates

    Författare :Henrik C Hansen; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Galabiose analogs; Globotriose analogs; Escherichia coli; verotoxin; PapG adhesion; Streptococcus suis; Dendrimers; Multivalency; Amino-deoxy analogs; Organic chemistry; Inhibitor; Ceramide analogs; Glycoconjugates; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The fact that a growing number of pathogens develop resistance against traditional treatment is a growing medical problem. Infections, which until now have been harmless, might turn into life threatening diseases. These problems have led to an intensified search for alternative treatments. Analogs of cell surface glycoconjugates are an alternative. LÄS MER
