  1. 6. IL-25 and B cells in atherosclerosis

    Författare :Polyxeni Mantani; Kardiovaskulär forskning - immunitet och ateroskleros; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; IL-25; B cells; ILC2s; IL-5; anti-PC IgM; atherosclerosis; stroke; cardiovascular events;

    Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of medium and large vessels of the body which is mainly characterized by the formation of lipid rich plaques within the arterial tissue. It is the most common cause of cardiovascular disease leading to clinical manifestations of coronary artery and cerebrovascular disease. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Characterization of Conduction and Polarization Properties of HVDC Cable XLPE Insulation Materials

    Författare :Hossein Ghorbani; Hans Edin; Gilbert Teyssedre; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HVDC insulation; power cable insulation; cross-linked polyethylene insulation; conductivity; dielectric losses; space charge; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : High voltage direct current (HVDC) cables with extruded insulation system were introduced in 1998. Since then this technology has been growing rapidly with many installations that are today operational at voltages up to 320 kV. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Preclinical Molecular Imaging using Multi-Isotope Digital Autoradiography - Techniques and Applications

    Författare :Anders Örbom; Lund Medicinsk strålningsfysik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Autoradiography; Radioimmunotherapy; Antibodies; Molecular Imaging; Multi-Radionuclide Imaging; Silicon-strip detector;

    Sammanfattning : Molecular imaging, both in vivo and ex vivo, is playing an increasingly important role in preclinical medical research. When using radionuclide-labeled tracers, e.g. in the development of radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic imaging or for radionuclide therapy, quantitative in vivo imaging can be performed using emission tomography.

  5. 9. Effects of hypoxia on macrophage function in atherosclerosis

    Författare :Ellen Knutsen Rydberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :atherosclerosis; hypoxia; macrophage; IL-8; oxidized LDL; oxysterols; 15-lipoxygenase-2;

    Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a complex disease, which affects large and medium sized arteries and is characterized by an arterial wall thickening. A constant supply of oxygen is needed to maintain cell functions in the atherosclerotic plaque. The oxygen distribution to the cells in the arterial wall depends on diffusion. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Plasma levels of matrix metalloproteinase‐9 in a normal population : a psychoneuroendocrinological approach

    Författare :Peter Garvin; Margareta Kristenson; John Carstensen; Lena Jonasson; Annika Rosengren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Several large‐scale epidemiological studies have demonstrated the prognostic significance of psychosocial factors and stress for coronary artery disease (CAD). Observations of sudden changes in CAD incidence have led to the proposal of mechanisms regarding atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability. LÄS MER
