The incidence of prostate cancer has increased dramatically during the last 10-15 years and it is now the commonest cancer in males in developed countries. The increase is mainly caused by the increasing use of opportunistic screening or case-finding based on the use of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing in serum. With this approach, prostate cancer is detected 5-10 years before giving rise t
Summary: In community dwelling, 75-year-old women followed 10 years, a frailty index was created at each of three visits. Frailty score increased by ~ 6–7% annually. A higher frailty score was equivalent to being 5–10 years chronologically older. Frailty was associated with low bone density and higher risk of dying. Introduction: To understand the distribution of frailty among a population-based s
Most of the recombinant proteins produced nowadays are fused to affinity tags, in order to facilitate their purification through affinity chromato-graphy. Out the different tags available, poly-histidine tags are among the most commonly used and can help purification through immobilised metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC). In this thesis, we present different metal binding tags, and their af
Denna uppsats behandlar de konkurrensrättsliga skillnaderna i EU-rätt och amerikans rätt rörande patentpooler. Genom patentpooler ges företag möjlighet att gemensamt samla sina patent inom ett visst tekniskt område och tillsammans licensera dem. Genom poolning av patent ökar möjligheterna för snabb utveckling samtidigt som licenskostnaderna minskar då samtliga nödvändiga patent blir tillgängliga gThis thesis identifies the differences in the antitrust regulations concerning patent pooling within the EU and the U.S. Patent pooling enables firms to jointly licence their patents as a package, gathering patents that are necessary in order to produce a certain product. Patent pooling allows faster development at lower costs, since firms can attain all necessary patents through one single licens

Lymphocytes from human peripheral blood were separated by Countercurrent distribution (CCD) in a charged aqueous two-phase system composed of Dextran T 500 and polyethylene glycol 6000. Maximal responses to the T-cell mitogens phytohemagglutinin and concanavalin A were detected in a part of the distribution corresponding to the area where the highest percentage of E rosetting cells were seen. Anti
Protein ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification that regulates important cellular functions. The identification of modified proteins has proven challenging and has mainly been achieved via enrichment methodologies. Random mutagenesis was used here to develop an engineered Af1521 ADP-ribose binding macro domain protein with 1000-fold increased affinity towards ADP-ribose. T
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is a leading cause of invasive bacterial infections in human newborns. A key GBS virulence factor is its capsular polysaccharide (CPS), displaying terminal sialic acid (Sia) residues which block deposition and activation of complement on the bacterial surface. We recently demonstrated that GBS Sia can bind human CD33-related Sia-recognizing immunoglobulin (Ig) superfami
EndoS from Streptococcus pyogenes efficiently hydrolyzes the functionally important and conserved N-linked glycan of IgG in human blood. Repeated i.v. administration of EndoS in rabbits completely hydrolyzes the glycans of the whole IgG pool, despite the generation of anti-EndoS antibodies. EndoS administration had no apparent effects on the health of the animals. EndoS hydrolysis of the IgG glyca
Regular prophylactic treatment with factor VIII (FVIII) and factor IX (FIX) concentrates in hemophilia A and B, respectively, is introduced in early infancy and has resulted in dramatic improvement of the conditions. Recombinant FVIII and FIX concentrates have been available for > 25 years and have been modified and refined through the years; however, unfortunately frequent intravenous administrat
Angiogenesis is a hallmark of cancer and is now a validated therapeutic target in the clinical setting. Despite the initial success, anti-angiogenic compounds impinging on the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway display limited survival benefits in patients and resistance often develops due to activation of alternative pathways. Thus, finding and validating new targets is highly warr
We have characterized 2 distinct mechanisms through which infectious agents may promote platelet adhesion and thrombus formation in flowing blood, thus contributing to the progression of disease. In one case, the process initiates when the integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) mediates platelet arrest onto immobilized bacterial constituents that have bound plasma fibrinogen. If blood contains antibodies agai
Popular Abstract in Swedish Komplementsystemet utgör en del av den medfödda immuniteten och är viktigt i försvaret mot angripande mikroorganismer. Ärftlig C2-brist (C2D) är en av de vanligaste bristerna inom komplementsystemet och förekommer i en frekvens av 1: 20 000 hos personer med västerländsk härstamning. I de aktuella undersökningarna har mer än 40 personer med C2D identifierats och observerThe complement system is a part of the innate immunity and is essential in the defence against microorganisms. Hereditary C2 deficiency (C2D) is one of the most common complement deficiency states with an estimated prevalence of 1:20,000 in persons of Western descent. In the present investigation, the identification of more than 40 C2D persons at a single centre combined with long observation peri
Popular Abstract in Swedish En av de viktigaste substanserna i vår kropp är proteiner, också kallade äggviteämnen. Proteiner har en mängd olika uppgifter i kroppen, de finns i våra celler där de har olika uppgifter såsom att fungera som enzymer, transportörer, signalsubstanser, eller som skyddsfaktorer. Proteiner ingår också som viktiga beståndsdelar i vävnaderna mellan cellerna och finns dessutomPathogenic bacteria express a wide array of surface proteins that interact with the environment. Many of these proteins are believed to be important for the virulence. This thesis deals with the binding of immunoglobulins (Ig) and complement regulating proteins to certain bacterial surface proteins. Protein L from Peptostreptococcus magnus binds to Igk-light chains while protein A from Staphylococ
