Abstract:

Network decontamination is a well known mobile agent problem with many applications. We assume that all nodes of a network are contaminated (e.g., by a virus) and a set of agents is deployed to decontaminate them. An agent passing by a node decontaminates it, however a decontaminated node can be recontaminated if any of its neighbours is contaminated. In the vast literature a variety of models are considered and different assumptions are made on the power of the agents. In this thesis we study variation of the decontamination problem in mesh and tori topologies, under the assumption that when

Abstract:

Two models of HIV infection have been studied extensively with the goal of identifying immune correlate(s) of protection against HIV: (1) the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) infection of rhesus macaque monkeys and (2) individuals with repeated exposure to HIV who remain uninfected by the virus (EUs). Both paradigms suggest that T cell-mediated immunity plays an important role in controlling HIV replication. Evidence from the SIV/macaque system, however, predicts that HIV vaccines aimed at eliciting T cell responses will fail to induce sterilizing immunity against HIV. The aim of the work p

Abstract:

Vaccination has important clinical potential in the immunotherapy of both infectious disease and cancer. The central aim of the studies reported in this thesis has been the development of vaccination strategies that will be effective for therapeutic applications in cancer. Using ovalbumin antigen in a mouse model, we have examined a combination of recently developed adjuvants referred to as CASAC (combined adjuvants for synergistic stimulation of cellular immunity) to optimise the efficacy of vaccination induced T cell mediated immunity. These studies have examined the effect of repeated round

Abstract:

The success of HCMV as a lifelong pathogen is attributed at least in part to the broad range of encoded immune evasion molecules that inhibit the host cellular immune response. Indeed, HCMV has become a paradigm for immune evasion, the study of which has revealed a number of basic immunological processes. To screen for novel immune evasion genes, HCMV-specific CD8+ T-cell lines were grown from seropositive donors and used against a series of block deletion viruses, each missing a region of genes non-essential for replication in vitro. UL13-UL20 was flagged as important for inhibition of CD8+ T

Abstract:

Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (AChR) has been purified from Torpedo electric organ, foetal calf muscle, adult human leg muscle, and foetal human skeletal muscle, by extraction in non-ionic detergent followed by affinity purification on immobilised a-toxin. The purified AChR preparations were used to study cellular responses in vitro from patients with myasthenia gravis. In addition, several characterisation studies were carried out on the foetal calf AChR preparation. Purified foetal calf AChR was shown in isoelectric focussing experiments to focus as a single sharp peak at pH 5.2 +/- 0.1,

Abstract:

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is associated with a powerful T cell-mediated ‘graft-versus-leukaemia’ (GvL) effect and also ‘graft-versus-host disease’ (GvHD). Developing therapies to improve survival relies on greater understanding of these responses in order to enhance GvL and suppress GvHD. To gain an increased understanding of the mechanisms of GvHD I measured frequencies of Th1, Th17 and Treg subsets in the blood of 32 GvHD patients (during and outside of disease episodes) and in 21 patients who did not suffer GvHD. No associations between T cell subset frequencies or serum cytokine

Abstract:

Individuals with Down syndrome (US) suffer from increased incidence of respiratory infections and lymphoblastic leukemia, and a death rate that is particularly high in the first 5 years of life. Relatively few studies have probed immune parameters in young US children. Primary immune defects in DS may be masked by a degree of immune maturity in adults, and hygienic factors may have an effect on immune capability throughout the years. A study of young children can give clearer evidence of the actual primary immune defects in DS. Blood samples were drawn from 20 DS children under 6 years old and

Abstract:

Hemocyanins (Hcs) and phenoloxidases (POs) are both members of the type-3 copper protein family, possessing di-cupric active sites which facilitate the binding of dioxygen. While Hcs and POs share a high degree of sequence homology, Hcs have been associated traditionally with oxygen transport whereas POs are catalytic proteins with a role in innate immunity. Evidence gathered in recent years details numerous immune functions for Hc, including an inducible PO activity. Unlike the pro-phenoloxidase activation cascade in arthropods, the endogenous mechanism(s) involved in the conversion of Hc int

Senescence is the age-related progressive deterioration of physiological processes leading to an increased likelihood of death and is a phenomenon that occurs nearly universally throughout all the world’s organisms. This thesis initially investigated the impact of ageing on the adult Drosophila melanogaster cellular immune response and demonstrated that the cellular immune response in D. melanogaster adults did experience an age-dependent decline in function. There was a striking reduction in haemocyte ability to phagocytose foreign particles with up to 30% less phagocytosis occurring in four

Abstract:

During the course of HIV pathogenesis, the virus induces multiple defects in immune cells, altering their functional ability to efficiently control HIV itself and other infections. Whilst the widespread implementation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has led to reduced morbidity and mortality in most HIV-infected individuals having access to treatment, we still do not know whether full restoration of immune function occurs. The aim of this study was to assess the extent to which ART restores both phenotypic and functional T and B cell immunity. HIV-infected women were studied before and 1 year

Abstract:

Accurate regulation of gene transcription is essential for organismal survival, and is orchestrated by myriad transcription factors and cofactors (TFs). Little is known about how the intrinsic activity of TFs is controlled. Recent work has indicated that the selective proteolysis of TFs provided by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) plays an important role in stimulating gene expression through a ‘destruction-activation’ mechanism, whereby the degradation of a ‘used’ TF is thought to stimulate further ‘fresh’ TF binding and reinitiate gene transcription.
