The development of a cell therapy for the neurodegenerative disorder Parkinson's disease is a realistic ambition. It is pursued by researchers and companies alike, and spans different donor tissue types of embryonic, fetal and adult origins. In this review, we briefly outline the past and current status of research and clinical trials with cell transplantation in Parkinson's disease. We discuss st

Work from our laboratories has shown that the major antigenic determinants for rheumatoid factors (RFs) are in the C gamma 2-C gamma 3 interface region of IgG in the same area that binds staphylococcal protein A (SPA). Furthermore, the Fc binding proteins of groups A, C and G streptococci as well as the Fc binding proteins induced on cell surfaces by herpes simplex virus type I also bind to the sa

Within the scope of this project, investigations were made into the possibility of replacing Electron Beam Lithography (EBL) with NanoImprint Lithography (NIL) for creating arrays of gold dots on substrates, with the aim of nanowire growth. The attempted nano wires grown were aimed to be of use in the field of biotechnology. The main focus and aim of this project has been to perfect a fabrication

The fact that Jane Austen composed and edited her novels during two eventful decades in Britain’s history excites an interest to investigate if this has affected the creation of her characters. This thesis explores whether Austen’s heroes develop in accordance with a shift in masculine ideals that can be discerned around the turn of the nineteenth century. The masculine ideal for gentlemen can be

Historically, animals have been excluded from the realms of political theory and political science. The underpinning disposition of this thesis is that animals belong in politics, considering it is the political processes and ideologies that determine our treatment of animals. The European Union started to legislate on the protection and welfare of farm animals during the 1970s. Over time, a slow

Current hemophilia B treatment guidelines recommend routine prophylaxis with factor IX (FIX) replacement products, tailored to maintain plasma activity at levels that will prevent bleeds. However, plasma FIX activity may not be the primary determinant or best indicator of hemostatic efficacy due to its extravascular distribution. FIX replacement therapy has evolved to include extended half-life (E

In this study I investigate how relative clauses in MSA effect the temporal properties of the verb form known as Perfect. Comrie (1976), and later Fassi Fehri (2004), describe the Perfect as having the properties of anteriority and perfectivity, i.e. it reports a finished situation temporally anterior either to the time of speech or to some other point in time. My hypotheses is that the Perfect in

In this thesis, the question of how to balance the right to reindeer herding against competing interests of land use in Sápmi in accordance with the indigenous rights of the Sami, will be examined. In order to answer this question other questions needs to be answered – What is the right to reindeer herding? Who is the holder of the right? Where can the right be exercised and finally, how can the rIn this thesis, the question of how to balance the right to reindeer herding against competing interests of land use in Sápmi in accordance with the indigenous rights of the Sami, will be examined.

This report describes the development of a manufacturing process for creating custom-made prosthetic arm sockets using 3D scanning and 3D printing. The process is intended to function as a guide for a prosthetist without requiring an extensive experience in CAD. The project aims to offer a viable alternative to the often time consuming and manual labour-intensive conventional manufacturing method,

The sports industry is one of the most challenging and constantly evolving industries, yet simultaneously, the smaller and medium-sized clubs face a severe challenge of competing against the biggest and best-known brands in the world. The sports literature is limited to marketing and studying global mega-brands; this thesis addresses the gap in strategic management literature concerning both sport

The Gaussian β-ensemble is a real n-point configuration {xj}n1 picked randomly with respect to the Boltzmann factor e− β 2 Hn, where Hn = ∑i≠j log |xi−1xj| + n ∑ni=112 xi2. It is well known that the point process {xj }n1 tends to follow the semicircle law σ (x) = 21π√(4 − x2 )+ in certain average senses. A Fekete configuration (minimizer of Hn) is spread out in a much more uniform way in the inter
