  1. 1. Macrophages : as central inflammatory mediators and as targets for therapeutic interventions

    Author : Åsa Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Macrophages; HMGB1; IL-23; MS; EAE; autoimmunity.;

    Abstract : Macrophages (Mphis) are important cellular players in autoimmune pathogenesis, being the most numerous cells infiltrating sites of inflammation and causing much of the associated tissue damage. Apart from these proinflammatory actions, Mphis also have distinct roles in disease resolution, and effective therapeutic targeting of Mphi-expressed molecules requires understanding of the interplay between different Mphi activators and the kinetics of the induced responses.

    Author : Åsa C. Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Introduction: Manipulation of medicines is often necessary in the paediatric setting due to lack of medicines suitable for paediatric patients. There are previous short-term frequency studies in different paediatric settings, but no long-term studies and no comparison between two different years in the same setting. READ MORE
