  1. 6. A Short Thesis about Growth Factors in Gliomas

    Författare :Göran Hesselager; Eric Holland; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; glioma; mouse model; PDGF; EGFR; activation; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi; Pathology; patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common form of primary brain tumor in humans. Its aggressive and infiltrative growth into the brain, and, at best, only partial sensitivity to radiotherapy and chemotherapy, renders it extremely difficult to treat and survival remains dismal.

  3. 7. Assembly and entry mechanisms of Semliki Forest virus

    Författare :Bernd Uwe Barth; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Semliki Forest virus; virus assembly; protein oligomerization; virus budding;

    Sammanfattning : The genomes of enveloped viruses are packaged into a core or nucleocapsid (NC) which is surrounded by a lipid membrane with spike proteins. These viruses mature by budding at a membrane of the host cell, usually the plasma membrane (PM), and penetrate into new ones by a virus-host membrane fusion event. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Study of pathogenesis and immune response in human Puumala virus infection

    Författare :Therese Thunberg; Clas Ahlm; Jonas Klingström; Brian Hjelle; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hantavirus; puumala virus; immune response; viral load; NK cells; T cells; cytokines; disease severity; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar;

    Sammanfattning : Hantaviruses can cause two severe human diseases: hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) and hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS). Hantaviruses are spread to humans mainly through inhalation of infectious virions, secreted from infected rodents. The human diseases are characterized by an increased capillary leakage syndrome.

  5. 9. Harnessing the immunoregulatory capacity of single-stranded oligonucleotides to modulate innate immunity

    Författare :Aleksandra Dondalska; Anna-Lena Spetz; Jenny Hallgren Martinsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; single-stranded oligonucleotides; Toll-like receptors; influenza; respiratory syncytial virus; dendritic cell; mast cell; virus infection; inflammation; itch; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : As the first line of defense, the innate immune system is exceptionally efficacious against invading pathogens but must be tightly regulated to avoid immune-related pathogenesis. Accordingly, the innate immune system recognizes highly conserved components associated with infections and damaged cells using a limited number of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), which are differentially expressed across cell types.

  7. 10. Cancer Immunotherapy : Evolving Oncolytic viruses and CAR T-cells

    Författare :Mohanraj Ramachandran; Magnus Essand; Di Yu; Justyna Leja-Jarblad; Richard Vile; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncolytic virus; Adenovirus; Semliki Forest virus; Cancer immunology; Chimeric antigen receptor T-cells; Immunologi; Immunology; Oncology; Onkologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biotechnology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär bioteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In the last decade cancer immunotherapy has taken huge strides forward from bench to bedside and being approved as drugs. Cancer immunotherapy harnesses the power of patient’s own immune system to fight cancer. LÄS MER
