  1. 1. Characterization of Mitilysin Pores by Cryo-electron Microscopy

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Vladimir Novakovic; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Mitilysin; Mly; Structural Biology; Cryo-EM; pore; toxin; pore forming proteins; pore forming toxins; PFP; PFT;

    Sammanfattning : Pore forming toxins (PFTs) are a large group of proteins found mainly in bacteria with some exceptions found in animals. They bind and form pores in their target membranes and form pores, which leads to cell death. Among these are cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDC), which require the presence of cholesterol to bind target membranes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Is the Expression of Hemolysin Co-regulated Protein (Hcp) Associated with Serum Resistance in Aggregatibacter aphrophilus?

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Tandläkarutbildning

    Författare :Clara Settlin; Selva Hot; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Aggregatibacter aphrophilus; hcp; T6SS; serum resistance;

    Sammanfattning : Abstract  Aggregatibacter aphrophilus, a Gram negative bacterium, found in the oral cavity, causing cerebral abscesses and infective endocarditis, has been shown to be serum resistant in previous studies. Bacterial secretion systems are important for bacteria as they transfer virulence factors into other bacteria or host cells as an attack. A. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Role Of The EmaA Adhesin In Aggregatibacter aphrophilus Serum Resistance

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Tandläkarutbildning

    Författare :wourod Shamoun; Amal Alhaddad; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT:  Background: Aggregatibacter aphrophilus is a Gram-negative bacterium that is considered to be highly virulent in endocarditis and cerebral abscesses but has low virulence when it comes to periodontitis. One important mechanism for the virulence of A. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The importance of the two- and three component systems WalRK and VraTSR for antibiotic resistance and phage susceptibility in Staphylococcus aureus

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologi

    Författare :Jack Abrahamsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :MRSA; Vancomycin; VISA; phage; bacteriophage; Staphylococcus aureus; antibiotic resistance; chemical engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus aureus is a human commensal bacterium, living primarily on the skin and in the nose. It is also a pathogen able to cause a wide range of diseases, including food poisoning, infection of wounds but also more serious infections such as bacteremia and endocarditis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Jämförelse av ejektionsfraktion vid myokardscintigrafi i vila (GSPECT) och 2D ekokardiografi

    Kandidat-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Författare :Fahrie Kochai; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Biplane Simpson; Ejectionfraction; echocardiography; Gated SPECT; myocardial perfusion; myoview;

    Sammanfattning : Ejektionsfraktion (EF) är ett mått på den globala systoliska vänsterkammarens funktion. EF är en viktig parameter för den systoliska vänsterkammare funktionen eftersom de terapeutiska samt prognostiska fattade besluten bygger på bland annat detta mått, vilket normalt är ≥ 55 % av slutdiastolisk volym.
