This study investigates pathways by which the eicosanoid precursor pools in the platelets, bone marrow and the gastrointestinal (GI) mucosa are acquired and regulated, and in this context some aspects on the interaction between triglyceride (TG)-rich lipoproteins and platelets. 1. Platelets take up chylomicrons (CM) in vitro, the main part being sequestered in open canalicular system and not degr

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen består av en analys av Statliga Offentliga Utredningar (SOU) och deras definition och hantering av homosexualitet, intersexualism och transsexualism under 1900-talet (1935-2001).

Kraven på kvalitetssäkring kommer ursprungligen från myndigheterna via lagstiftningen menDuring the past few years, extensive effort has been devoted to developing quality systems as an integral part of the process in the construction sector. The construction process is complex, involving many different actors with different interests. The demand for quality assurance comes primarily from central authorities via the client, but quality systems should be applied throughout the whole ch

Hematopoietic stem cells are an ideal target for genetic manipulation for the purpose of curing hematological disorders as they have the ability to develop into all blood lineages and to self-renew. In this study we demonstrate that lentiviral vectors, based on HIV-1, can efficiently transfer genes into human hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells as assessed following stem cell transplantation i

The new challenge of the Gas Turbine industry is to develop new technologies for meeting electricity demand growth and reducing harmful emissions. Thus a better understanding of the combustion phenomenon and an improvement in simulation capabilities are needed. Large Eddy Simulation tools brought the hope of meeting these two conditions and enabling the design of safe and clean burners. In the pre
