Streptococcus pyogenes is one of the most common bacteria infecting humans. One of the factors contributing to the disease-causing properties is the secreted streptococcal cysteine proteinase, SpeB, which degrades several host proteins in connective tissue and circulation. SpeB activity depends on the transformation from an inactive precursor, zymogen, into a mature proteinase. We show that

Background: Ocrelizumab is a humanized anti-CD20 antibody with increased antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity compared with rituximab. This phase I/II study evaluated its safety and efficacy in patients with relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (FL) after prior rituximab therapy. Design and methods: Forty-seven patients were treated in three dose cohorts and received eight infusions every 3

Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A streptococcus; GAS) is an important human pathogen responsible for mild to severe, life-threatening infections. GAS expresses a wide range of virulence factors, including the M family proteins. The M proteins allow the bacteria to evade parts of the human immune defenses by triggering the formation of a dense coat of plasma proteins surrounding the bacteria, includi

INTRODUCTION: Synaptic dysfunction and loss are pathological hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases. Neuronal pentraxin 2 (NPTX2), a presynaptic protein involved in synaptic plasticity, has been linked to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative disorders. METHODS: We developed and validated a novel single molecule array (Simoa) for NPTX2 in cerebrospinal fluid, w

Popular Abstract in Swedish Protein H - ett bakteriellt ytprotein med förmåga att binda till olika proteiner hos människa Bakgrund I vårt dagliga liv omges vi av bakterier av många olika slag. Flertalet av dessa är normalt ofarliga och många utgör den så kallade normalfloran hos människa. En del bakterier kan under vissa förhållanden ge upphov till infektion och sjukdom, men för att åstadkomma d

The royal Danish-Norwegian flagship Gribshunden, launched in 1485, was amongthe earliest northern European warships purpose-built to carry artillery. However, King Hans employed his vessel as far more than a weapons platform. The ship was his ‘floating castle’, fulfilling all the various purposes of a land redoubt. At its loss in 1495 enroute to a political summit in Kalmar, where Hans expected to

Modulenthus is a company in the wood house industry that builds houses in volumes. Volume building means that Modulenthus builds predecorated house volumes in a factory and transports these to the building sites where they are being put together to complete detached houses. The purpose of these Master Thesis is that, on the basis of Modulenthus conditions and wishes, evaluate a possible using of a

Museum Stobaeanum included a collection of artefacts, originally labeled ”artificialia”. It consisted primarily of ethnographic objects from Asia, North and South America, Russia, Siberia, Greenland and Lapland, but also Classical antiquities, Nordic antiques, curious European works of art, as well as scientific instruments and models. Museum Stobaeanum included a comparatively small collection of
