    Sammanfattning : Moraxella catarrhalis is a respiratory tract pathogen that causes significant health problems, including acute otitis media in children, lower respiratory tract infections in adults and the elderly and sinusitis in both children and adults. The interest in M. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Characterization of surface components of Moraxella catarrhalis and pathogenic Neisseria

    Författare :Motiur Rahman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Moraxella catarrhalisantibody LPS NeisseriapiliPilC;

    Sammanfattning : Infection is a multistep process including adhesion, colonisation, invasion and multiplication which finally results in disease. Bacterial surface components and virulence factors are essential for all these different steps and they are co-ordinately regulated during the different steps of pathogenesis and infection. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles. Mediators of virulence and antibiotic resistance

    Författare :Viveka Schaar; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Antibiotic resistance; Moraxella catarrhalis; epithelial cells; beta-lactamase; non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae; outer membrane vesicles; polymicrobial infections; UspA1;

    Sammanfattning : Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) have the size of nanoparticles and are released from the outer membrane of most Gram-negative bacteria. The OMV reflect the composition of the bacterial outer membrane, including lipids and virulence factors specific for the pathogen, and are involved in pathogenesis and bacterial survival. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Experimental acute otitis media : aspects on treatment, protection and structural changes

    Författare :Eva Westman; Ann Hermansson; Sten Hellström; Åsa Melhus; Bengt Carlsöö; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Otorhinolaryngology; acute otitis media; penicillins; rat; treatment; protection; beta-lactamase; Moraxella catarrhalis; Haemophilus influenzae; Otorhinolaryngologi; Otorhinolaryngology; Otorhinolaryngologi; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : Acute otitis media (AOM) is a common disease in childhood and is one of the most common causes for outpatient antibiotic treatment. The major aetiological agents of AOM have varied over the decades. Now the three most common pathogens are Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Structural characterization of proteins to investigate their roles in diseases: Focus on MID & LTA4H

    Författare :Mahmudul Hasan; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Moraxella IgD binding protein; adhesin; leukotriene A4 hydrolase; small angle x-ray scattering; crystallography; circular dichroism;

    Sammanfattning : Protein molecules are responsible for many biological functions in cells. In order to fulfill their various biological roles, these chain-like molecules must fold into precise three-dimensional shapes. The knowledge of accurate molecular structures is a prerequisite for rational drug design and for structure based functional studies. LÄS MER
