Certain monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to type II collagen (CII) induce arthritis in vivo after passive transfer and have adverse effects on chondrocyte cultures and inhibit self assembly of collagen fibrils in vitro. We have examined whether such mAbs have detrimental effects on pre-existing cartilage. Bovine cartilage explants were cultured over 21 days in the presence of two arthritogenic mAbs to

Popular Abstract in English Fish are an excellent source of healthy protein and fat in the human nutrition. However, the fisheries cannot supply enough of fish to satisfy the demand of a growing world’s population. Sustainable aquaculture can help feeding the growing world. This business is growing every year, and together with it the fish farms and fish feed factories are growing. This created thAs aquaculture expands, the volume of fish feed produced and transported must also increase. Therefore a better understanding and increased control of the factors that influence the physical quality of feed pellets is required. To achieve this goal, reliable methods measuring the physical quality of feed are needed. The Holmen pellet tester (NHP 100) could be adapted for this purpose, but the spec

This paper identifies and analyzes paradoxes in perception of organizational crisis. Based on the observation of conflicting views on organizational crises that tend to polarize towards either threats or opportunities, we explore contradictions and interrelations in the concept. Our purpose is to reveal ambivalences and dynamics between the paradoxical pairs and thus contribute to a more reflexive
For cities growing in conditions of extreme heat and aridity, adapting their building stock to reflect these environmental challenges demands a social as well as technical shift. Aqaba in southern Jordan is embarking on this process. Extremely poor building thermal performance coupled with a lack of public understanding of basic energy principles is contributing to social and economic stress in Aq

As global average temperatures are rising, the populist radical right party Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) has ramped up its anti-climate but pro environmental protection politics. As this focus is nascent, the question of how and for whom does the political ecology of the AfD articulates meaning has yet received little attention.

Purpose: Corporate brands increasingly use influential, high reach human brands (e.g. influencers, celebrities), who have strong parasocial relationships with their followers and audiences, to promote their offerings.

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is the leading cause of transfusion-related mortality and can occur with any type of transfusion. TRALI is thought to be primarily mediated by donor antibodies activating recipient neutrophils resulting in pulmonary endothelial damage. Nonetheless, details regarding the interactions between donor antibodies and recipient factors are unknown. A murine a
Idag befinner vi oss i den så kallade fjärde industriella revolutionen, ett begrepp myntat av Klaus Schwab som är grundare och styrelseordförande av World Economic Forum. Uppgifter och funktioner som tidigare förlitat sig på den mänskliga arbetskraften kan idag automatiseras och förenklas med hjälp av artificiell intelligens. Inom advokatverksamheten har artificiell intelligens använts som komplem
The purpose of this thesis was to create a dialogue between the church-sect typology of Ernst Troeltsch and the Radical Reformation theology of Arne Rasmusson. The hypothesis was that Rasmusson has good reasons to take the dialogue with Troeltsch more seriously; that the perspective of Troeltsch can help to clarify aspects of Rasmusson’s theology and show tendencies of inconsistency in it, and the
