  1. 11. Biomarkers in sepsis and other severe infections

    Författare :Helena Janols; Enheten för infektionssjukdomar; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; immunosuppression; myeloid-derived suppressor cells; T cells; dendritic cells; monocytes; sepsis; Biomarkers;

    Sammanfattning : Infectious diseases constitute a major global health problem. The presenting clinical picture results from a mixture of direct toxic actions by the microbiological agent and of the immune response mounted by the host. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : A better understanding of the relationship between ionising radiation (IR) dose, dose rate and radiation quality, and the risk of stochastic effects would improve risk extrapolation from atomic bomb survivors’ data. Owing to insufficient statistical power of epidemiological studies to detect excess incidence of cancer following low doses of IR delivered at low dose rates (LDLDR), as typically encountered in most common human exposure scenarios, radiobiological experiments are fundamental to describe the biological effectiveness of LDLDR and to define the underlying molecular mechanisms.

  3. 13. Proximity Ligation Assays for Disease Biomarkers Analysis

    Författare :Rachel Yuan Nong; Ulf Landegren; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proximity ligation assay; blood biomarkers; protein interactions; pathway analysis; single molecule; next-generation sequencing; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : One of the pressing needs in the field of disease biomarker discovery is new technologies that could allow high performance protein analysis in different types of clinical material, such as blood and solid tissues. This thesis includes four approaches that address important limitations of current technologies, thus enabling highly sensitive, specific and parallel protein measurements. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease and the APOE polymorphism

    Författare :Ronald Lautner; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer’s disease; Biomarkers; APOE; Cerebrospinal fluid; β-amyloid;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers reflecting the core pathology of AD are now widely used for diagnosis making, in particular β-amyloid[1-42] (Aβ42) reflecting amyloid plaque pathology, phosphorylated tau (P-tau) reflecting neurofibrillary tangle pathology and total tau (T-tau) reflecting general neurodegeneration. In addition, blood-based biomarkers for AD are in the pipeline with recent studies showing promising diagnostic potential. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Predictors and early biomarkers in Giant Cell Arteritis

    Författare :Karin Wadström; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Giant Cell Arteritis; Epidemiology; Biomarkers;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractGiant Cell Arteritis (GCA) is the most common vasculitis in adults among people in the western world. The pathogenesis and etiology are not fully understood.In Study I, we investigated potential predictors for developing GCA, i.e. LÄS MER
