Aktivering av immunförsvaret dämpar den samme Kroppens immunförsvar består av en mängd olika typer av specialiserade celler, alla med sina unika egenskaper och nischer. För att immunförsvaret ska fungera så optimalt som möjligt krävs det att cellerna kan interagera och kommunisera med varandra, vilket görs med hjälp av proteiner som finns på cellernas yta. En typ av celler, som kallas CD8+ T cellAbstract 4-1BB (CD137/TNFRSF9) is a costimulatory receptor expressed by several cellular subsets of the immune system, but is commonly associated with CD8+ T cells. Stimulation of 4-1BB on CD8+ T cells with agonistic antibodies (α-4-1BB) causes a potent proliferation signal and an upregulated expression of CD11c. CD11c+CD8+ have previously been recognized to suppress other immune cells, such as F

The purpose of this paper was to examine how five persons who identify themselves as porn addicts view their addiction in terms of how the addiction have come about, what affective experiences they associate with the addiction, how it affects their relations to others, what makes them continue using pornography, what forms the addiction takes and how they live with their addiction today. Based on

I denna framställning behandlas fyra huvudsakliga frågeställningar beträffande den avtalsrättsliga lojalitetsplikten som försäkringsbolag har att beakta i företagsförsäkringsavtal. Beträffande den fösta frågeställningen, vad lojalitetsplikten i dessa avtal grundas på, kan följande konstateras. Plikten innebär att parterna med omsorg har att iaktta och tillvarata motpartens intressen i avtalsförhThis presentation deals with four main issues concerning the contractual duty of loyalty which insurance companies have to consider in business insurance agreements. Regarding the first question at issue - what the duty of loyalty in these agreements is based on - the following can be stated. The duty implies that the parties with care observe and exploit the counterparty’s interests in the cont

Uppsatsen behandlar frågan om skydd av ägarpositioner i anslutning till familjeägda aktiebolag. Anledningen till uppsatsens tema är att familjeägda aktiebolag har en särprägel som avviker från det efter ABL konstruerade aktiebolaget. Detta uttrycks, till exempel genom att ägarna i det familjeägda bolaget vanligtvis har ett särskilt behov av att skydda ägarkretsens sammansättning under en längre peThis paper is on protection of ownership positions in relation to family-owned businesses. The reason for the papers theme is that family-owned businesses have a distinctive character that deviates from the construction in the Companies Act. For example, owners of a family-owned business usually have a particular need to protect the ownership structure for a longer period of time. To put the famil

The thesis explores and analyses the behaviour of the European Union vis-à-vis the promotion and protection of human rights within the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). It furthermore examines whether the theory of ‘normative power Europe’ is an appropriate theory in characterizing the external action of the EU at the UNGA. Drawing on seven interviews with EU and non-EU officials in both New

This thesis investigates the video projections that are presented on screens during live music performances through a case study focusing on the Touring the Angel concert by Depeche Mode. The concert took place in Milan and was released on DVD in 2006. Video projections during live concerts combine images that were produced before, such as video clips and still photography, with shots from the sta

This is an inquiry into how aspects of the present human reality came to being and thereby also an investigation into limitations and potentialities of this “present”. An important argument in this essay is that there exists a mutually affective relationship between culture and politics and that this relationship implies both possibilities and constraints. With this in mind I try to critically inv

The wind effects on high rise buildings were studied by finding and reading books, articles and studying equations. This was done to calculate the first natural frequency of high rise buildings, wind induced acceleration on high rise buildings and how the comfort criteria of acceleration performing on high rise buildings acts on human bodies living in the building. The buildings that were studied

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) was ranked as the sixth leading cause of death in 1990 and is projected to be the fourth leading cause of death worldwide by 2030 due to an increase in smoking rates and demographic changes in many countries (Mathers & Loncar 2006). To diagnose COPD there are several methods which are either imprecise or very expensive. The objective of this master

De stora häxprocesserna i Europa ägde rum under 1400- till 1700-talet. Framställningen avser att besvara hur den juridiska processen mot häxeriet var utformad samt förklara hur häxförföljelserna kunde uppstå. Den inkvisitoriska processen var karaktäristisk för häxprocesserna. I motsats till den ackusatoriska processen kunde domaren ta initiativ till rättsliga processer och låta makthavarnas ideoloThe witchcraft trials in Europe took place from the 15th to the 18th century. The purpose of this presentation is to clarify the model of the legal process against the witches and give an explanation of how the witch hunts started. The inquisitorial process was characteristic for the witchcraft trials. As opposed to the accusatory process, the judge could initiate the process and let the ideologie

För att kunna föreslå förbättringar i ALP: s produktionslayout insåg vi rätt tidigt att det första steget för detta arbete var att sätta sig in i företagets produkter och hur de tillverkas. Vi inledde därför vårt arbete med en kartläggning av produktionen och dess olika produktionslinjer. Med detta som grund fortsatte vi sedan med att föreslå en ny layout, samt förbättringar i delar knutna till de

Klimatförändringen är ett fenomen som på ett aldrig tidigare skådat sätt kommer att sätta press på rättssystem världen runt. Det finns ett behov av att utforma rättsliga instrument och institutioner för att hantera förändringar i miljön men också av att utforma själva lagstiftningen att vara flexibel och anpassningsbar i förhållande till föränderliga förhållanden i naturens tillstånd. För att säkeClimate change is a phenomenon that in an unprecedented way will put pressure on the legal systems worldwide. Not only is there a need for designing the necessary legal instruments and institutions to handle changes in the environment but also for the law itself to be flexible and able to adapt under preconditions in nature which are uncertain. To ensure that the legislation is resilient enough to

Emphasis is put on fiscal policy and the allocation of tax revenues received from FDIs in the extractive industry. To conduct the study I have used theories explaining the reason behind FDI decisions and the mainstream theori
