För att polisen ska kunna fullgöra sina uppgifter finns det en laga befogenhet att använda våld. I de fall då våld används kan det ibland vara nödvändigt för polisen att använda sig av hjälpmedel, vilket skjutvapen har varit för poliser i yttre tjänst sedan år 1965. Regleringen för när en polisman har laga befogenhet att använda skjutvapen är idag dock kritiserad för att vara svårläst, ogenomtänkt

HCV infection is a major risk factor for liver cancer and liver transplantation worldwide. Overstimulation of host lipid metabolism in the liver by HCV-encoded proteins during viral infection creates a favorable environment for virus propagation and pathogenesis. In this study, we hypothesize that targeting cellular enzymes acting as master regulators of lipid homeostasis could represent a powerfu
