Contemporary Scandinavian Cinema between Art and Commerce

With regard to Scandinavian cinema and television, the last decades have been marked by the unexpected international appeal and unforeseen longevity of Scandinavian crime or Nordic noir as it is sometimes labeled. This development has paved the way for ever increasing financial and artistic collaboration within the audiovisual industries, especially among the Scandinavian countries. But it has als

Distal Radius Fractures. Outcome and New Methods of Surgical Treatment

Handledsbrott är den vanligaste frakturen på en akutmottagning. De yngre vuxna patienterna är jämnt fördelade mellan könen men de äldre har en övervikt av kvinnor. Hos de äldre men även i medelåldern uppstår frakturen företrädesvis i ett skelett med olika grad av benskörhet. Frakturen behandlas oftast med gips utan operation men drygt en femtedel opereras. Om felställningen är stor eller om fraktu

A mutation in caspase-9 decreases the expression of BAFFR and ICOS in patients with immunodeficiency and lymphoproliferation

Lymphocyte apoptosis is mainly induced by either death receptor-dependent activation of caspase-8 or mitochondria-dependent activation of caspase-9. Mutations in caspase-8 lead to autoimmunity/lymphoproliferation and immunodeficiency. This work describes a heterozygous H237P mutation in caspase-9 that can lead to similar disorders. H237P mutation was detected in two patients: Pt1 with autoimmunity

IL-17 protects T cells from apoptosis and contributes to development of ALPS-like phenotypes

In autoimmune/lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS), defective Fas death receptor function causes lymphadenomegaly/splenomegaly, the expansion of T-cell receptor αβ+ CD4/CD8 double-negative T cells, and frequent development of hematologic autoimmunity. Dianzani autoimmune lymphoproliferative disease (DALD) has a similar phenotype but lacks the expansion of double-negative T cells. This work shows th

ICOS-ligand triggering impairs osteoclast differentiation and function in vitro and in vivo

Osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts (OCs) are involved in the bone production and resorption, which are crucial in bone homeostasis. OC hyperactivation plays a role in the exaggerated bone resorption of diseases such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteolytic tumor metastases. This work stems from the finding that OCs can express B7h (ICOS-Ligand), which is the ligand of the ICOS T
