1. 1. Adhesion in the wheel-rail contact

   Författare :Yi Zhu; Ulf Olofsson; Anders Söderberg; Zili Li; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Adhesion; wheel-rail contact; contaminants; tribology; Järnvägsgruppen - Tribologi; The KTH Railway Group - Tribology;

   Sammanfattning : To attract more customers and compete with other modes of transportation, railway transport needs to ensure safety, punctuality, high comfort, and low cost; wheel–rail adhesion, i.e., the transmitted tangential force in the longitudinal direction during driving and braking, plays an important role in all these aspects.

3. 2. Role of adhesion molecules and chemokines in TNF-alpha-induced leukocyte recruitment

   Författare :Xiao Wei Zhang; Kirurgi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; intravital microscopy; microcirculation; inflammation; adhesion; leukocyte; orthopaedics; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi;

   Sammanfattning : Migration of leukocytes from the circulating blood into the extravascular tissue is a key component in inflammatory reactions. Leukocyte extravasation (rolling-activation-adhesion-transmigration) is strictly coordinated by adhesion molecules and chemokines expressed on cell surfaces and in tissues. LÄS MER

4. 3. Protein tyrosine kinases and the regulation of signalling and adhesion in drosophila melanogaster

   Författare :Caroline Grabbe; Ruth Palmer; Tapio Heino; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drosophila; Signalling; Adhesion; Protein Tyrosine Kinase; Development; Endocytosis; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi;

   Sammanfattning : In order to build a multi-cellular organism and to regulate cellular functions, cells need to communicate with each other, as well as tightly regulate their behaviour in response to environmental changes. For these purposes all eukaryotic cells express a large number of membrane spanning receptors that either themselves contain catalytic activity or via cytoplasmic effector enzymes, function to transmit “signals” from the cell exterior to induce appropriate responses within the cell.

5. 4. Evolutionary and functional studies of protein H: a surface molecule of Streptococcus pyogenes

   Författare :Inga-Maria Frick; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intracellular transportation; adhesion; aggregation; FNIII domain; albumin-binding; M-like protein; convergent evolution; protein G; Streptococcus pyogenes; IgG-binding; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

   Sammanfattning : Several bacterial species express surface proteins with affinity for the Fc part of human IgG. This thesis describes evolutionary and functional studies of protein H, an IgGFc-binding surface protein of the human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes. LÄS MER

7. 5. CarcinoEmbryonic Antigen-related Cell Adhesion Molecule 8 (CEACAM8) : Purification, Characterization, Cellular and Clinical Studies

   Författare :Linshu Zhao; Per Venge; Claes Dahlgren; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biochemistry; human neutrophil; human eosinophil; granule proteins; CEA; CEACAM8; G-CSF; ELISA; subcellular fractionation; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Biokemi;

   Sammanfattning : A 95-kDa protein was purified from normal human granulocytes. The protein reacted with a monoclonal antibody against CEACAM8. MALDI-Tof and MS/MS analyses revealed the protein to be a CGM6 gene product. Thus, the protein was proved to be identical to CEACAM8. LÄS MER
