Cord blood T regulatory cells and their association with development of type 1 diabetes
Norková, Jindra ; Štechová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Černý, Jan (referee)
Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is organ-specific autoimmune disease which causes pancreatic beta cells to be irreversibly destroyed. The only possible treatment represents life-lasting insulin administration. The real trigger of destructive insulitis isn't known. T1D is a multi- factorial disease involving both external and internal factors in the disease pathogenesis. The presence of autoreactive T lymphocytes in pancreas is necessary for development of diabetes. T regulatory cells have protective function in the destructive insulitis. The aim of this diploma thesis was to study cord blood T regulatory cells and their connection to type 1 diabetes development. We tried to find the difference among T regulatory cells in mononuclear cord blood cells (CBMC) in different study groups. Samples were collected from mothers suffering from T1D, gestational diabetes. Healthy controls were tested as well. Sixty-eight samples of cord blood were included in the study among the years 2009 - 2011. Samples were divided into 3 groups (CBMC from children born to T1D mothers, mothers with gestational diabetes and healthy mothers without T1D). CBMC were ana- lysed by flow cytometry. T regulatory cells (defined as CD4+CD25+) were isolated by magnetic separation (MACS). The functional capacity of these cells was studied as well by...

Dependence of time to detection on number of bacterial cells in BacT/Alert and Bactec
NORKOVÁ, Jindra
This work compared results from two automated blood culture systems. The first task is comparison of time to detection in the BacT/Alert standard aerobic and Bactec Standard aerobic/F bottles. The second task is comparison of time to detection of biofilm and non-biofilm producers. Results are that the Bactec System is faster in detection of bacterial strains and time to detection of biofilm producer is longer.
