Characterization of the human chemerin receptor - ChemR23/CMKLR1 - as co-receptor for human and simian immunodeficiency virus infection, and identification of virus-binding receptor domains.
Studies were conducted to elucidate co-receptor spectrum and function of the inflammatory receptor, CMKLR1/ChemR23, which was recently identified as the receptor for the cystatin-like chemoattractant, TIG2, also named chemerin. An infection model was applied based on stably transfiected NP-2.CD4 host cells expressing various co-receptor constructs and exposed to panels of HIV-1, HIV-2 and SIV prim

Climate and Energy Use in Glazed Spaces
Glazed spaces ranging from small glazed verandas to large atrium buildings have become a common feature in architecture. A glazed space is greatly affected by aspects of the outside climate such as insolation and temperature. In the design of such spaces, more sophisticated design tools are therefore required in order to estimate the climate inside the glazed space and the energy requirements for

Development of a laccase-modified electrode for amperometric detection of mono- and diphenols. The influence of enzyme storage method
Results are reported for biosensors based on two different preparations of the same enzyme, laccase from Cerrena unicolor, one lyophilized and one stored frozen at - 18degreesC, for monitoring phenolic compounds. The enzyme was adsorbed on graphite electrodes and these were used in a flow through wall jet cell connected to a flow injection set-up. The electrodes were used at - 50 mV vs. AgAgCl. Th

A male-specific quantitative trait locus on 1p21 controlling human stature
Background: Many genome-wide scans aimed at complex traits have been statistically underpowered due to small sample size. Combining data from several genome-wide screens with comparable quantitative phenotype data should improve statistical power for the localisation of genomic regions contributing to these traits. Objective: To perform a genome-wide screen for loci affecting adult stature by comb

Salicylate biodegradation by various algal-bacterial consortia under photosynthetic oxygenation.
Four green microalgae (Chlorella sorokiniana, Chlorella vulgaris, Scenedesmus obliquus and Selenastrum capricornutum), a wild Bolivian microalga strain and two cyanobacteria (Anabaena catenula and Microcystis aeruginosa) were compared for tolerance to salicylate, O2 production capacity and ability to support salicylate degradation by a Ralstonia basilensis strain in symbiotic microcosms with the m

Comparison between rainfall simulator erosion and observed reservoir sedimentation in an erosion-sensitive semiarid catchment
Estimating catchment scale soil loss based on rainfall simulators is often hampered by the difficulty to scale up simulator results. Our objective was to develop and test a method for estimating catchment scale soil loss based on observed rainfall using a variable intensity rainfall simulator in an erosion-sensitive catchment in semiarid Tunisia. A 7-year period, 1992-1999, with observed sedimenta

Ligand hyperfine interaction at the neutral silicon vacancy in 4H- and 6H-SiC
The silicon vacancy in its neutral charge state (V-Si) has been unambiguously identified in 4H- and 6H-SiC. This was achieved by observation of ligand hyperfine interaction with the four carbon atoms in the nearest-neighbor shell and the twelve silicon atoms in the next-nearest-neighbor shell surrounding the vacancy. The complete hyperfine tensors have been determined for the V-Si(0) center residi

Mechanical integrity of TCO films för flexible polymer-based displays
The mechanical integrity of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) thin films sputtered onto a high temperature aromatic polyester developed for flexible display applications was investigated by means of tensile experiments equipped with electrical measurement, and carried out in-situ in an optical microscope. Attention was paid to the influence of ITO thickness, composition and crystalline microstructure,
alpha1-Antitrypsin regulates CD14 expression and soluble CD14 levels in human monocytes in vitro.
The recognition of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is principally mediated by either membrane-bound or soluble form of the glycoprotein CD14 and CD14-associated signal transducer, toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). Recent findings indicate that the serine protease inhibitor, alpha 1-antitrypsin (AAT), may not only afford protection against proteolytic injury, but may also neutralize microbial activit
New Approaches to Using FEIBA in the Treatment of Inhibitor Patients.
Managing hemophilia becomes particularly difficult in patients with inhibitory antibodies, especially in those requiring surgery or with refractory bleeding events. Equally challenging are those patients who develop autoantibodies against factor VIII (FVIII) in the absence of a prior history of FVIII deficiency (acquired hemophilia). Physicians seeking both short- and long-term treatment strategie

Foreign Direct Investment by Large Swedish Firms - the Role of Economic Integration and Exchange Rates
Two important features of the global economy in the last few decades have been the increasing degree of regional economic integration and the increasing volatility of real exchange rates. Due to the EU membership and the single European currency, issues related to regional economic integration and exchange rate changes hold prominence on the business and political agenda in Sweden.
