21. Epidermal Reactions to Injury with Implications for Innate Immunity
Sammanfattning : Abstract The epidermis is one of our primary interfaces towards the external milieu. Following injury, the physical barrier function of the skin is destroyed and the epidermis is left vulnerable to microbial invasion. LÄS MER
22. Caenorhabditis elegans as a model to elucidate host-pathogen interactions for human bacterial pathogens
Sammanfattning : The soil nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is a popular host utilized to model bacterial virulence and microbial pathogenesis in vivo. This thesis explores the use of C. elegans for the study of host-pathogen interactions for two Gram-negative bacteria, Burkholderia thailandensis and Salmonella enterica. LÄS MER
23. The biology and ecology of Phytophthora infestans: the role of cell wall proteins in development, pathogenicity and potato defence activation
Sammanfattning : Phytophthora infestans was one of the first eukaryotic microbes to be implicated as the causal agent of a plant disease. Despite a relentless research effort over the last 150 years, it remains one of the most economically important phytopathogens today. LÄS MER
24. Proteomics of the upper airways : studies on a new lipopolysaccharide-binding protein, PLUNC
Sammanfattning : There is now significant interest in identifying, quantifying and characterizing the human proteome, and new powerful techniques (proteomics) have evolved to deal with this giant task. In the present study, proteomics have been applied for the first time to map the proteins of the upper airways. LÄS MER
25. Cellular Effects of Cystatins
Sammanfattning : The exact cellular functions of cystatins are still unknown, and the molecular mechanism leading to their internalization into cells is not yet fully understood. Commonly the cystatins are known to inhibit human lysosomal cysteine proteases (cysteine cathepsins) and it is supposed that this is their primary physiological role. LÄS MER
