3. 42. Nära inpå: Maskulinitet, intimitet och gemenskap i brandmäns arbetslag

   Författare :Mathias Ericson; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; firefighters; profession; gender equality; masculinity; homosociality;

   Sammanfattning : This study explores the profession of firefighter, in which the progression of gender equality has been particularly slow compared to many other professions in Sweden. The aim of the study is to explore constructions of masculinity in the firefighter profession and how they are related to specific forms of community among men in this profession. LÄS MER

4. 43. Oxidative stress and calcium signalling : implications for diabetes and cardiac glycosides

   Författare :Mark Lal; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Calcium; diabetes; Na; K-ATPase; ouabain; oxidative stress;

   Sammanfattning : The signal transduction processes by which an individual cell is able to recognize and respond to its external environment are critical to determining its survival as well as that of the entire organism. In the current study we have investigated the intracellular signalling cascades activated downstream of two separate stimuli: the diabetic milieu and the cardiac glycoside, ouabain. LÄS MER

5. 44. Humoral immunity during primate lentivirus infection : evaluation of B cell apoptosis and engineering of virus specific antibodies

   Författare :Astrid Samuelsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The focus of this project was to evaluate the contribution of the humoral immunity in controlling infection with primate lentiviruses - an area which has implications both for vaccine design as well as for understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease. The first goal was to generate efficient neutralizing reagents which could be used for passive immunotherapy trials, preferably in the macaque system, and to investigate if peptide immunogens could elicit such antibodies.

7. 45. Oxygen Metabolism in Experimental Kidney Disease

   Författare :Ebba Sivertsson; Fredrik Palm; Peter Hansell; Jenny Nyström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Kidney; kidney oxygenation; mitochondria; proteinuria; uncoupling protein; adenosine nucleotide transporter; diabetes; hyperthyroidism; thyroid hormone; hypertension; angiotensin II; CDK; AST-120; rats; mice; Fysiologi; Physiology;

   Sammanfattning : Tubulointerstitial hypoxia has been proposed a unifying mechanism behind the development of chronic kidney disease (CKD), regardless of primary diagnosis. Important factors that contribute to the development of hypoxia are reduced bioavailability of nitric oxide (NO), oxidative stress and mitochondria uncoupling. LÄS MER
