Host modulation of excessive innate immune responses
A fundamental role of the innate immune system is to elicit a proper response against both invading pathogens and tissue damage or danger signals. Although the innate immune system often is successful in eliminating danger, an excessive host-response can result in severe tissue injury. Factors that contribute to the elimination of the microbe are the same factors that cause tissue injury. Therefor
Supporting Visual Editors using Reference Attributed Grammars
Reference attributed grammars (RAGs) extend Knuth’s attribute grammars with references. These references can be used to extend the abstract syntax tree to a graph. We investigate how RAGs can be used for implementing tools for visual languages. Programs in those languages can often be expressed as graphs.
New Galloylated Flavonoid Glycosides from Geranium stepporum DAVIS
Two new galloylated flavonoid glycosides, quercetin-3-O-(3 ''-O-galloyl)-beta-glucopyranoside (1) and quercetin-3-O-(3 ''-O-galloyl)-beta-galactopyranoside (2) were isolated from the aerial parts of Geranium stepporum along with the four known flavonoids, quercetin 3-O-beta-glucopyranoside (3), quercetin 3-O-beta-galactopyranoside (4), quercetin 3-O-(6 ''-O-galloyl)-beta-glucopyrinoside (5) and qu
Variations in graft and patient survival after kidney transplantation in Sweden: caveats in interpretation of center effects when benchmarking
P>Benchmarking and comparisons between transplantation centers are becoming more common. A crude comparison indicated a 50% difference in patient survival between centers in Sweden. A 'task group' was formed to refute or confirm and learn from this observation. Patient survival and graft survival of 5 933 patients transplanted at three different transplantation centers in Sweden (Stockholm, Gotebo
Effect of dietary alpha-ketoglutarate on blood lipid profile during hypercholesterolaemia in rats
Objective. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of -ketoglutarate on the blood lipid profile using a rat animal model with experimentally induced hypercholesterolaemia. Material and methods. The female and male (30/30) Wistar rats had ad libitum access to a diet containing cholesterol (1 %) and lard (10 %) throughout the entire experimental period (120 days). On day 60 of the study, bo
On decays of light unflavoured pseudoscalar mesons
The ongoing and planned experimental activities with direct reference to light unflavoured pseudoscalar mesons motivate a new theoretical study regarding their properties. An overview including details on new precise calculations is presented.
TRPA1-RECEPTOR-INDUCED RELAXATION OF THE HUMAN URETHRA INVOLVES TRPV1-AND CANNABINOID-RECEPTOR-MEDIATED SIGNALS AND ACTIVATION OF CYCLOOXYGENASES

Effects of Deletion of Mutant Huntingtin in Steroidogenic Factor 1 Neurons on the Psychiatric and Metabolic Phenotype in the BACHD Mouse Model of Huntington Disease.
Psychiatric and metabolic features appear several years before motor disturbances in the neurodegenerative Huntington's disease (HD), caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the huntingtin (HTT) gene. Although the mechanisms leading to these aspects are unknown, dysfunction in the hypothalamus, a brain region controlling emotion and metabolism, has been suggested. A direct link between the expression
The Trivial Matters. Everyday power in Swedish elder care
This is a study about fairly ordinary situations in elder care: how staff deal with older people’s influence, how staff talk about older people’s complaints, how family members talk about elder mistreatment, and how older people act in order to exert influence in a nursing home. However ordinary, these are situations where relational power is accentuated, accomplished and able to be empirically ex

Therapeutic vaccination against fibronectin ED-A attenuates progression of metastatic breast cancer.
Therapeutic vaccination targeting self-molecules is an attractive alternative to monoclonal antibody-based therapies for cancer and various inflammatory diseases. However, development of cancer vaccines targeting self-molecules has proven difficult. One complicating factor is that tumor cells have developed strategies to escape recognition by the immune system. Antigens specifically expressed by t
Evaluation of A2BP1 as an Obesity Gene
OBJECTIVE-A genome-wide association study (GWAS) in Pima Indians (n = 413) identified variation in the ataxin-2 binding protein 1 gene (A2BP1) that was associated with percent body fat. On the basis of this association and the obese phenotype of ataxin-2 knockout mice, A2BP1 was genetically and functionally analyzed to assess its potential role in human obesity. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS-Variant
An Operator Theoretic Interpretation of the Generalized Titchmarsh-Weyl Coefficient for a Singular Sturm-Liouville Problem
In this article an operator theoretic interpretation of the generalized Titchmarsh-Weyl coefficient for the Hydrogen atom differential expression is given. As a consequence we obtain a new expansion theorem in terms of singular generalized eigenfunctions.
Non-linear association between androgen receptor CAG repeat length and risk of male subfertility: a meta-analysis
Candida albicans Uses the Surface Protein Gpm1 to Attach to Human Endothelial Cells and to Keratinocytes via the Adhesive Protein Vitronectin.
Candida albicans is a major cause of invasive fungal infections worldwide. Upon infection and when in contact with human plasma as well as body fluids the fungus is challenged by the activated complement system a central part of the human innate immune response. C. albicans controls and evades host complement attack by binding several human complement regulators like Factor H, Factor H-like protei
(68)Ga-labeled superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) for multi-modality PET/MR/Cherenkov luminescence imaging of sentinel lymph nodes.
The aim of this study was to develop (68)Ga-SPIONs for use as a single contrast agent for dynamic, quantitative and high resolution PET/MR imaging of Sentinel Lymph Node (SLN). In addition (68)Ga enables Cherenkov light emission which can be used for optical guidance during resection of SLN. SPIONs were labeled with (68)Ga in ammonium acetate buffer, pH 5.5. The labeling yield and stability in hum
Kanon och kulturarv : Historia och samtid i Danmark och Sverige
Kanon och kulturarv har diskuterats intensivt de senaste åren i Danmark och Sverige. I Danmark har regeringens beslut att definiera en dansk kanon väckt stor debatt. I Sverige har diskussionen varit hovsammare samtidigt som ordet kulturarv har ett starkt grepp om museer, kulturmiljövård och arkiv. I Danmark har diskussionen kretsat kring vad som är danskt, vem som ska definiera danskheten och vil
