36. Understanding Complex Diseases and Disease Causative Agents : The Machine Learning way
Sammanfattning : Diseases can be caused by foreign agents – pathogens – such as viruses, bacteria and other parasites, entering the body or by an internal malfunction of the body itself. The partial understanding of diseases like cancer and the ones caused by viruses, like the influenza A viruses (IAVs) and the human immunodeficiency virus, means we still do not have an efficient cure or defence against them.

37. Host-Parasite Interactions in Natural Populations
Sammanfattning : Parasitism is one of the most common ways of living and it has arised in many taxa. Parasites feed and live inside or on their hosts resulting in both long and short term consequences for the host. This thesis is exploring the phenotypic and genotypic effects of animals living with parasitic infections. LÄS MER
38. Dissection of virus-host cell interactions in the early response to infection
Sammanfattning : Stress granules (SG) are dynamic RNA/protein assemblies in the cytoplasm of the cell, formed under conditions of oxidative stress, heat shock or viral infections. These stress conditions trigger a sudden translational arrest, leading to a rapid switch of translation from housekeeping genes to stress-related factors. LÄS MER
39. Superantigens in group A streptococcus : gene diversity and humoral immune response
Sammanfattning : Group A streptococcus (GAS) is a strictly human pathogen that causes infections ranging from asymptomatic carriage to the highly lethal streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS). GAS are classified according to the sequence of the variable 5’ end of the emm-gene that encodes the surface associated M-protein. LÄS MER
40. Streptococci and Platelets - A Study of Host-Pathogen Interaction Dynamics
Sammanfattning : Invasive infections remains one of the leading causes of death due to infections over the world, and efficient treatment remains elusive. One of the major causes of sepsis and other invasive infections is pathogenic streptococci that cause a wide range of clinical manifestations in humans. LÄS MER
