BACKGROUND Linomide, Figure 1, produces robust and consistent in vivo growth inhibition of prostate cancer models via its anti-angiogenic activity and inhibition of autoimmune encephalomyelitis models of multiple sclerosis (MS). MS clinical trials were discontinued because of unacceptable toxicity, due to dose-dependent induction of proinflammation. METHODS Therefore, linomide analogs were initia

Murine gammadelta T cells participate in innate immune response against infection of the intracellular bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. In the present report, we analyzed the mechanism of the gammadelta T cell-mediated response against L. monocytogenes infection. gammadelta T cell-enriched spleen cells of L. monocytogenes-infected mice produced IFN-gamma in vitro in response to L. monocytogenes-i

Flt3 has emerged as a potential regulator of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). Sixty percent of cells in the mouse marrow Lin(-)Sca1(+)c-kit(+) HSC pool expressed flt3. Although single cell cloning showed comparable high proliferative, myeloid, B, and T cell potentials of Lin(-)Sca1(+)c-kit(+)flt3(+) and Lin(-)Sca1(+)c-kit(+)flt3(-) cells, only Lin(-)Sca1(+)c-kit(+)flt3(-) cells supported sustained

Allergic rhinitis is a common disease characterized by the symptoms of pruritus, sneezing, hypersecretion and nasal blockage. Increased mucosal barrier permeability has been suggested to be an indicator for the severity of allergic rhinitis. This study investigates the passage of radiolabelled albumin from the nasal mucosal circulation into the lumen in guinea pigs intraperitoneally sensitized and

We used a high-titer recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vector to express WT or mutant human alpha -synuclein in the substantia nigra of adult marmosets. The alpha -synuclein protein was expressed in 90-95% of all nigral dopamine neurons and distributed by anterograde transport throughout their axonal and dendritic projections. The transduced neurons developed severe neuronal pathology, inc

Screening mammography plays a key role in the early detection of breast cancer, however, estimates of sensitivities (48-88%) and specificities (82-98%) suggest that the diagnostic accuracy can be improved (1, 2, 3). Breast tomosynthesis (BT) is a 3D technique that is expected to improve breast cancer detection compared to screen-film and digital mammography DM). This work presents two clinical obs

The Papuan languages on the islands of Timor, Alor, Pantar and Kisar have typically been supposed to be related to one another. Based on their geographical proximity, this assumption of relatedness has been supported by impressionistic assessments of lexical and phonological similarity and the results of lexicostatistical measurements. Whilst recent historical work has shown definitively that the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Helicobacter pylori är en spiralformad Gramnegativ human-specifik patogen, som kan penetrera magsäckens slemlager och kolonisera epitelskiktet. H. pylori infektion är en högriskfaktor för utvecklandet av kronisk gastrit, magsår och ventrikelcancer. Både aktivt växande spiralformer av H. pylori och dess runda viloformer framkallar kronisk magkatarr (gastrit) i BALB/cA möHelicobacter pylori is a human pathogen strongly associated with chronic type B gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer and MALT lymphoma. Our aims were to establish a mouse model of H. pylori infection, to study pathogenesis of gastritis and gastric cancer and to investigate new treatment strategies in this model. Both spiral and coccoid forms of H. pylori strains 17874, 25 and 553/93 cau

This paper consists of two, somewhat disparate parts. In the first part, some experiences of two years of fieldwork are summarized, concentrating, as the subtitle suggests, on the very heart of phonetic fieldwork: the encounters and interviews with the informants. As a result of the fieldwork, the project now has access to recordings from approximately 1300 speakers of more than 100 dialects of Sw

Popular Abstract in Swedish Trots att vår kropp är uppbygd av ett stort antal celler med så olika funktioner som att skapa ben och försvara oss mot infektioner, innehåller alla celler samma genetiska information. Denna information är lagrad i cellens chromosomer i form av DNA och cell specifica egenskaper uppstår då olika delar av kromosomernas information används i olika vävnader. Således, måste The development of immature progenitor cells into highly differentiated effector cells is a process central in modern medicine with applications in the fields of cell therapy as well as oncology. This thesis is focused on the molecular mechanisms that control the development of B lymphocytes. This is a complex and tightly regulated process involving several stages proceeding from stem cells to ant

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sedan kartläggningen av det mänskliga genomet, har mer fokus lagts på dess produkt, proteomet, som definieras som de proteiner som uttrycks i en cell vid en viss tidpunkt. Proteomets dynamiska egenskaper gör det till en fantastisk källa för så kallade biomarkörer, det vill säga molekyler som genom deras koncentrationsmönster kan användas för att särskilja sjuka och frisMultiplex protein quantification, proteomics, is essential for uncovering new biomarkers and understanding biology. Liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is the predominant technique for these measurements. In this thesis, optimization and quality control strategies for different phases of the LC-MS pipeline have been developed. Due to the inherent complexity and dynamic rang

This text is an analysis of the reception of Steven Spielberg´s film Schindler´s List in the Czech Republic. Being a Sudeten German, Oskar Schindler, the hero of the film and the rescuer of hundreds of Jews from the Nazi destruction machinery, made Czechs aware not only or primarily of the atrocities of the Holocaust, but of several Czech-German troublespots of the past, including those related to
