Psychological correlates of physical activity and exercise preferences in metropolitan and nonmetropolitan cancer survivors
2021
Objective Interventions to increase physical activity (PA) in cancer survivors have often adopted a ‘one‐size‐fits‐all’ approach, and may benefit from being tailored to psychological constructs associated with behavior. The study objective was to investigate the exercise preferences and psychological constructs related to PA among cancer survivors. Methods Post‐treatment colorectal, endometrial, and breast cancer survivors (n=183) living in metropolitan and non‐metropolitan areas completed survey measures of PA, exercise preferences, attitudes, self‐efficacy, perceived behavioral control (PBC), and intention toward PA. Results A structural equation model with adequate fit and quality indice…
Towards therapeutic gene delivery to human cancer cells : targeting and entry of baculovirus
2008
Geeniterapia on yksi tulevaisuuden hoitomuodoista taistelussa syöpää vastaan. Virukset ovat evoluution myötä kehittyneet tehokkaiksi geeninsiirtäjiksi ja ovat nykyään käytetyimpiä geeninsiirtovektoreita. Yksi geenihoitojen yleistymisen esteistä on kuitenkin ollut virusvektoreiden puutteellinen kohdennus haluttuun kudokseen. Kohdentaminen on erityisen tärkeää syövän hoidossa, jotta hoito vaikuttaisi pääasiassa pahanlaatuisiin soluihin.Mäkelä kehitti tutkimuksessaan syöpäsoluihin kohdentuvia bakulovirusperäisiä geeninsiirtovektoreita. Hän tutki myös viruksen sisäänmenomekanismeja ja kulkeutumista kohdesoluissa.- Hyönteisiä infektoiva bakulovirus on luontaisesti vaaraton ihmisille. Se on helpo…
Comparison of Delivery Methods in Phage Therapy against Flavobacterium columnare Infections in Rainbow Trout
2021
This dataset consists of three phage therapy experiments to prevent Flavobacterium columnare infections in rainbow trout. Experiments I and II were done in stagnant water, and Experiment III in a flow-through system. See the documentation file attached with the dataset for full description of the methods (also found in the original article).
Quantity and Quality of Aquaculture Enrichments Influence Disease Epidemics and Provide Ecological Alternatives to Antibiotics
2021
Environmental heterogeneity is a central component influencing the virulence and epidemiology of infectious diseases. The number and distribution of susceptible hosts determines disease transmission opportunities, shifting the epidemiological threshold between the spread and fadeout of a disease. Similarly, the presence and diversity of other hosts, pathogens and environmental microbes, may inhibit or accelerate an epidemic. This has important applied implications in farming environments, where high numbers of susceptible hosts are maintained in conditions of minimal environmental heterogeneity. We investigated how the quantity and quality of aquaculture enrichments (few vs. many stones
The influence of infective dose, nutrient availability and coinfection on virulence of Flavobacterium columnare : implications of intensive aquacultu…
2016
Ecological factors are known to affect disease dynamics and even lead to disease emergence. Especially in opportunistic, environmentally transmitted pathogens, the environment may significantly contribute to pathogen virulence. Intensive farming, including aquaculture, has been suggested to create conditions favouring development of highly virulent pathogens. At Finnish fish farms, epidemics caused by opportunistic Flavobacterium columnare have been constantly increasing in their prevalence and severity since the 1980’s. Yet, factors behind the increased virulence of the pathogen and their mechanisms of action have largely remained unsolved. In this thesis, I explore the effects of infectio…

Transmission and host and mate location in the fish louse Argulus coregoni and its link with bacterial disease in fish
2007
FM Matthias Bandilla osoittaa väitöstutkimuksessaan, että kirjolohen kalatäitartunnalla on selkeä yhteys Flavobacterium columnare -infektioon, joka on yksi ongelmallisimmista bakteeritaudeista suomalaisessa kalanviljelyssä tällä hetkellä. Vaikka heikko kalatäitartunta ei aiheuta kalan kuolemaa, yhdessä bakteerialtistuksen kanssa se voi olla tappava. Vastaavien vuorovaikutusten ymmärtäminen olisi tärkeää vesiviljelyn kannalta, koska erilaisten mikrobien aiheuttamien tautien ja loisten yhteisesiintyminen kalanviljelylaitoksella on ennemminkin sääntö kuin poikkeus.Kalatäi (Argulus coregoni) on pääasiassa lohikaloilla esiintyvä äyriäispintaloinen, jonka levinneisyys ulottuu koko pohjoiselle vyö…
