11. Cellular and molecular mechanisms for induction of broad anti-viral B cell responses through vaccination
Sammanfattning : Viral infections contribute to significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. The immense diversity across and within viral families poses a substantial challenge for the development of prophylaxis and therapeutics. Vaccines are one of the most effective medical interventions to prevent infectious diseases. LÄS MER
12. Studies of different clinical manifestations of Sarcoidosis and the role of genetic factors
Sammanfattning : Sarcoidosis is a systemic disease of unknown etiology characterized by the formation of non-necrotizing granulomas in the affected organs. Engagement of the lungs and/or thoracic lymph nodes (LN) are found in more than 90 % of all cases, but almost any organ such as the eyes, skin, heart and nervous system can be involved. LÄS MER
13. Staging and tumor biological mechanisms of lymph node metastasis in invasive urinary bladder cancer
Sammanfattning : Aim: To study the possibility of detecting lymph node metastasis in locally advanced urinary bladder cancer (UBC) treated with radical cystectomy (RC) by using preoperative positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and peroperative sentinel node biopsy (SNB) technique. We also investigate the clinical significance of macrophage traits expression by cancer cells, M2-macrophage infiltration (MI) in tumor stroma and the immunohistochemical expression of biomarkers in cancer cells in relation to clinicopathologic data.

14. Relation between nutritional status, the outcome of infection and immune responses
Sammanfattning : A causal interaction between nutrition and the outcome of different infections has been known since long time ago. Moreover, responses of human beings to infection are diverse and demarcated by immunity. A deficient and unappropriated nutrition allows to a deficient immune response. LÄS MER
15. MRI in prostate cancer : implications for target volume
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common cancer among men, with 10 000 new cases per year in Sweden [1]. To diagnose PCa, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to identify and classify the disease. LÄS MER
