Platelets express Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), and this has been shown to be responsible for the thrombocytopenia induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration in vivo. We studied the role of LPS in mediating platelet phagocytosis by THP-1 cells in vitro by flow cytometry. Opsonization of platelets with an IgG monoclonal (W6/32) antibody or with IgG autoantibody-positive sera from patients wi
This study analyses which perspectives occur in science students’ texts at different points in time during the process of writing a popular science article. The intention is, thus, to explore how popular science writing can help students discover and discuss different perspectives on science matter. For this purpose, texts written by 12 bachelor students in biology were analysed in a case study.

A central hypothesis of ecological immunology is that immune defences are traded off against competing physiological and behavioural processes. During energetically demanding periods, birds are predicted to switch from expensive inflammatory responses to less costly immune responses. Acute phase responses (APRs) are a particularly costly form of immune defence, and, hence, seasonal modulations in
Title: Perceiving the Mundane Necessity - How Consumers Perceive Pharmacies in an Increasingly Competitive Swedish Market Course: BUSN39 - Degree Project in Global Marketing Authors: David Ingvarsson & Oscar Egard Supervisor: Tommy Shih Purpose: The purpose of our study is to identify and gain an understanding of how consumers perceive pharmacies on the Swedish pharmaceutical market.

Three-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (3- PGDH) deficiency is a rare recessive inborn error in the biosynthesis of the amino acid L-serine characterized clinically by congenital microcephaly, psychomotor retardation, and intractable seizures. The biochemical abnormalities associated with this disorder are low concentrations of L-serine, D-serine, and glycine in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). Only two m
This paper examines the impact of COVID-19 on total net FDI inflows in Lithuania. More specifically, the aim is to fill in the gap that exists in previous research by focusing on the critical assessment of finding explanations behind the deviation of the net FDI inflow patterns during the pandemic. To study the relationship, the quarterly data is collected and a time series analysis has been imple
Since 2010, the Region South Fire and Rescue Service in Sweden has conducted over 60 000 fire-prevention home visits. On-duty fire fighters have gone door-to-door in-forming residents about general safety procedures in case of a fire. The aim of this ongoing education campaign is to reduce the number of residential structure fires and incidents with fatal outcomes as well as to improve the level oSince 2010, the Region South Fire and Rescue Service inSweden has conducted over 60 000 fire-prevention homevisits.
