Factor H is an inhibitor of the complement system, essential for controlling the alternative pathway and also playing a crucial role in various cellular functions. In this thesis, we identified new intriguing functions of FH as a survival factor for primary human monocytes, promoting their differentiation into immunosuppressive macrophages. We showed that FH is expressed by human breast cancer cel

This chapter seeks to develop a theoretical basis for better understanding the intersections between public diplomacy (PD) and development communication (Devcom). It will be argued that both fields involve (1) theories of influence over social change in foreign countries; (2) a voluntary transfer of resources from an actor promoting a specific cause or agenda to a group or organization in a foreig

Four organizations at Stockholm-Arlanda airport are going through various organizational changes. They are preparing for present and future demands through structural changes, implementation of new technology, training, and other efficiency and capacity improving measures. The change processes will be followed during two years of which this paper presents the baseline measurement. The key factors

This study explores sustainable energy renovation strategies for a congregation building in southern Sweden using a parametric optimization approach to balance passive and active measures. Passive measures include envelope and window improvements and leakage control, while active measures involve photovoltaic integration and ventilation enhancements. The renovation aims to optimize energy use, the

Abstract in UndeterminedIt has long been known that a major larger foraminifera turnover (LFT) occurred at the boundary between the Thanetian and Ilerdian stages, but its possible correlation with the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum (PETM) was unsuspected until the work of Baceta (1996), and has been controversial ever since. After summarizing the history of this controversy, we present informati

Aromatic ring flips are a hallmark of protein dynamics. They are experimentally studied by NMR spectroscopy, where recent advances have led to improved characterization across a wide range of time scales. Results on different proteins have been interpreted as continuous diffusive ring rotations or jumplike flips, leading to diverging views of the protein interior as being fluidlike or solidlike, r

The dendritic cell (DC) lineage encompasses a diverse population of cells with unique subtype-specific functions. In peripheral blood, four DC subsets have been identified based on their distinct expression of CD1c, CD141, CD16, and CD123, and these subpopulations exhibit functional properties in immune responses. However, their respective roles in allergic diseases, such as rhinitis, are unclear.

After electrophoresis of an alkaline extract of type 15 group A streptococci, three main precipitation lines were obtained in diffusion experiments against commercial human polyclonal IgG (lines 1, 2 and 3). Nineteen of 23 sera (83%) from apparently healthy human individuals gave line 3, while 6 of them (26%) gave line 1. The sera giving line 1 did also give line 3. Line 2 was obtained with 2 sera
