21. Standardization of Islet Isolation and Transplantation Variables
Sammanfattning : Currently, the transplantation of islets of Langerhans is a viable means to maintain control of blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of hypoglycemia in defined populations with brittle type I diabetes mellitus or those requiring pancreatectomy. However, the process of islet isolation is highly variable and not all isolations result in islet numbers or quality suitable for transplantation. LÄS MER
22. Analysis of the molecular interplay between Streptococcus pyogenes and its human host
Sammanfattning : The common human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes is the causative agent of numerous mild and severe clinical conditions. It expresses a number of secreted or cell wall-anchored proteins that modulate the human immune system and facilitate colonization and spread of the pathogen in the human host. During S. LÄS MER
23. Thermal tolerance in teleost fish –importance of cardiac oxygen supply, ATP production and autonomic control
Sammanfattning : Temperature tolerance is a key determinant of the resilience and adaptability of fish facing a warmer and more thermally variable future with climate change. Yet, the underlying physiological mechanisms determining the critical thermal maximum (CTmax) are poorly understood. LÄS MER
24. Nitric oxide modulates neutrophil function
Sammanfattning : An important role of the neutrophils is to attack and destroy microbial intruders. In order to do so, these leukocytes must adhere to the blood vessel wall, pass through the endothelial cell layer, move through the tissues to the point of infection, ingest the intruder and destroy it.

25. Glutaredoxins : structure, function and mechanism
Sammanfattning : Thioredoxin (Trx) and glutaredoxin (Grx) are small (9-12 kDa) intracellular disulfide reducing enzymes. They were originally described as hydrogen donors for ribonucleotide reductase (RR), the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides. LÄS MER
