36. Discovery of Secondary Metabolites from Rwandese Medicinal Plants : Isolation, Characterization and Biological Activity
Sammanfattning : Plants have served as the principal source of medicines in different parts of the world through the ages. Herb-derived medicines have been used as decoctions, infusions, tinctures or single substance drugs. LÄS MER
37. Antiretroviral treatment of HIV-1 in the central nervous system
Sammanfattning : HIV-1 invades the central nervous system (CNS) early in the infectious course. It establishes a chronic progressive infection, and triggers an intrathecal immune response. If left untreated, a majority of patients will develop neurological complications, caused by opportunistic pathogens or HIV-1 itself. LÄS MER
38. HIV-1 reverse transcriptase as a target in the development of specific enzyme inhibitors
Sammanfattning : Human immunodeficiency virus type I (HIV-I), which causes the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), begins its intracellular infection life cycle with reverse transcription of its plus-strand RNA genome into a double-stranded proviral DNA intermediate which is integrated into the host chromosome inducing a persistent infection. A virally encoded enzyme, reverse transcriptase (RT), carries out the reverse transcription process by performing all three enzymatic activities, i. LÄS MER
39. Modelling Sexual Interactions : Sexual behaviour and the spread of sexually transmitted infections on dynamic networks
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we develop statistical and mathematical models to study different factors of relevance for the spread of sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Two special interest groups for STI interventions are considered: sexually active youths and men who have sex with men (MSM). LÄS MER
