Reactive arthritis (ReA) is an inflammatory joint disease, which belongs to the group of Spondyloarthritis (SpA). It may occur after infections with certain gram-negative bacteria such as Salmonella and Yersinia. SpAs are strongly associated with the human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-B27. Despite active research, the mechanism by which HLA-B27 causes disease susceptibility is still unknown. However, HLA-B27 has a tendency to misfold during assembly. It is possible that the misfolding of HLA-B27 could alter signaling pathways and/or molecules involved in inflammatory response in cells. We have earlier discovered that in HLA-B27-positive cells the interaction between the host and causative bacteria is disturbed. Our recent studies indicate that the expression of HLA-B27 may alter certain signaling molecules by disturbing their activation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the expression of HLA-B27 disturbs the signaling molecules, especially the phosphorylation of transcription factor STAT1. STAT1 is an important mediator of inflammatory responses. Our results show that the phosphorylation of the STAT1 is significantly altered in HLA-B27-expressing U937 monocytic cells compared with control cells. STAT1 tyrosine 701 is more strongly phosphorylated in HLAB27- expressing cells; whereas the phosphorylation of STAT1 serine 727 is prolonged. Phosphorylation of STAT1 was discovered to be dependent on protein kinase PKR. Furthermore, we found out that the expression of posttranscriptional gene regulator HuR was altered in HLA-B27-expressing cells. We also detected that HLA-B27-positive cells secrete more interleukin 6, which is an important mediator of inflammation. These results help to understand how HLA-B27 may confer susceptibility to SpAs.

Knowledge and competence are in important role in today’s demanding business environment where hard competition forces everyone to specialize and concentrate more to core competencies. Companies are outsourcing services, making processes more efficient and utilizing better their staff and available knowledge capital. It requires good strategic planning, process measuring and management and motivated staff, who is willing to continuously learn and absorb new information. This Thesis examines almost total IT service outsourcing to international service provider in situation where company previously had own IT. Work contains problematic situations during the change and suggestions how to improve services and understand the new model in a better way.

Tässä oppaassa käsitellään viljelykierrolla saatavia hyötyjä. Viljelykierrolla on suotuisa vaikutus maan rakenteeseen ja se vähentää kasvitautien, rikkakasvien ja tuhoeläinten määrää kasvustoissa. Tarkastelussa kevätöljykasvit, syysviljat, kevätvehnä ja peruna ovat parhaita esikasveja muille viljelyskasveille. Näiden jälkeen viljeltävien kasvien hehtaarisadot nousivat parhaimmillaan yli 500 kg. Öljykasvi esikasvina saattaa parantaa kevätvehnän ja ohran laatua. Säästä johtuvien epävarmuustekijöiden takia on vaikeaa antaa yksiselitteistä ohjeistusta typpilannoituksen vähentämiseksi muiden kuin palkokasvien jälkeen. Tämä opas on osa TEHO Plus -hankkeen tuottamaa materiaalia viljelijöiden ja neuvojien käyttöön, mikä täydentää hankkeen laatimaa Maatilan ympäristökäsikirjaa.
