1. Host-parasite interactions in space and time
Sammanfattning : Unicellular parasites of the apicomplexan phylum have a considerable effect on global health and agriculture. Two prominent examples of this phylum include malaria causing parasites of the Plasmodium genus and the widely prevalent parasite Toxoplasma gondii. LÄS MER
2. Host-parasite interactions in the dissemination of Toxoplasma gondii
Sammanfattning : Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular parasite that infects virtually all warm-blooded organisms. Systemic dissemination of T. gondii in the organism can cause life-threatening infection that manifests as Toxoplasma encephalitis in immune-compromised patients. LÄS MER
3. 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
4. Drosophila-Serratia as a host-parasite system : defence mechanisms and virulence factors
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
5. Murine B lymphocyte growth regulation : a study of host defence factors and their mimicry by Mycoplasma arginini
Sammanfattning : Immune responses are the result of extended clonal growth and maturation of specific precursors preexisting in low frequencies. Clonal expansion is partly controlled by soluble factors, thus, their identification is essential for the understanding of the immune response regulation. LÄS MER
