Abstract: The present invention relates to a hydrogel material hydrogel material, comprising a first hydrogel comprising 0.15-21 wt-% of a functionalised triblock molecule having a formula (1) wherein n is 4-680 and m is 1-10, based on a total weight of the first hydrogel. The first hydrogel further comprises 0.85-3.3 wt-% of silica, based on the total weight of the first hydrogel, and 75-99 wt-% of an aqueous liquid, based on the total weight of the first hydrogel. The —Si—OH groups of the silica form a —Si—O—Si— bond with the —Si—(O)3— group of the functionalised triblock molecule of formula (1).

Abstract: There is an association between enteroviruses and type 1 diabetes (T1D). The present invention is based on the finding that particular enterovirus serotypes are T1D risk serotypes, while others are protective against the disease. The present invention relates to a diagnostic assay for type 1 diabetes (T1D), and especially to an assay for predicting the risk of contracting the disease. It also relates to a method of monitoring the efficacy of antiviral treatments aiming at prevention of T1D. The invention still further relates to a diagnostic kit.

Abstract: Coxsackie B virus CBV1 has been found to be strongly associated with the risk of contracting type 1 diabetes. A vaccine comprising CBV1, a component thereof or an antibody thereto is provided for use in preventing or treating type 1 diabetes. In addition CBV2 was also found to be diabetogenic.

Abstract: Some coxsackie B viruses have been found to have a protective effect on type 1 diabetes, while others increase the risk of the disease. This opens up new therapeutic implications in the form of vaccines. The protective viruses CBV3, CBV4, CBV5 and CBV6 may be used in live attenuated vaccines for preventing or treating type 1 diabetes. They may also be used for inducing an immune response against risk viruses like CBV1, and for eliminating the diabetogenic effect of the risk viruses. Type 1 diabetes may be prevented especially by vaccinating with live attenuated protective viruses CBV3, CBV4, CVB5 and CBV6, and further with inactivated diabetogenic/risk virus CBV1, components thereof or antibodies thereto.

Abstract: New enteroviruses associated with type 1 diabetes have been found, which opens up new therapeutic and diagnostic implications. A vaccine against at least one enterovirus selected from coxsackie A virus CAV4, CAV5, CAVE and echovirus 18 is provided for use in preventing or treating type 1 diabetes. A diagnostic assay for predicting the risk of contracting type 1 diabetes based on the determination of said enteroviruses is also provided.

Abstract: In a method of targeting intergration of a transgene comprising retrovirus-like DNA into a eukaryotic genome, the genome is cleared by an endonuclease and the transgene is introduced at the site of cleavage, wherein the endonuclease is specific to a site in an abundant rDNA locus and is fused to an integrase that mediates the introduction of the transgene. The fusion protein may be new.

Abstract: A nucleotide molecule comprising a selectable gene flanked by anL1 and anL2 attachment sites of a bacteriophage and additionally comprising an origin of replication. This can be used to create a baculovirus-based gene library.

Abstract: The present invention relates to new chimeric mutants of avidin protein with improved properties, e.g. thermostability, better stability against proteolysis, better charge properties (for example lower pl) compared to native avidin and avidin-related proteins, AVRs. The chimeric avidin mutants comprise mutants where a region or regions in avidin are substituted by a corresponding region or regions from an AVR protein.
