  2. 1. Specific IgE-profiles and allergy prediction

    Author : Sandra G Tedner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Presence of antibodies of type Immunoglobulin E (IgE-ab), often called sensitization, is common and often precede development of atopic disease, including food allergy. While not all IgE-sensitized individuals develop food allergy, some seem to be at a higher risk. READ MORE

  4. 2. Aspects of the regulation of human sperm motility

    Author : Pär K G Leijonhufvud; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis I address some of the possible causes for oligozoospermia and low sperm motility, two factors that, singly or in combination, are often seen in cases of male subfertility. In the first study we evaluated the effect on human spermatozoa of the toxicity of compounds present in diesel exhaust. READ MORE

  5. 3. Clinical and immunological aspects of IgG subclass deficiency : Predictors for the need of immunoglobulin replacement therapy

    Author : Per Wågström; Charlotte Dahle; Sofia N. Nyström; Åsa Nilsdotter-Augustinsson; Mats Nilsson; Ola Winqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immunoglobulin G subclass deficiency; inflammation; lymphocytes; fatigue; co-morbidity; immunoglobulin G replacement therapy;

    Abstract : Background: Predominantly antibody deficiencies (PAD) are inborn errors of immunity, and associate with increased susceptibility to infections. Life-long immunoglobulin replacement therapy (IgRT) is introduced based on Ig-levels and the frequencies and severity of infections. READ MORE

  6. 4. Immunoglobulin-binding bacterial surface proteins; biomedical tools and virulence factors

    Author : Britt-Marie Kihlberg; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Phagocytosis; M-like protein; M protein; Protein L; Protein G; Ig-binding; Streptococcus pyogenes; Fc Receptors; mykologi; virologi; bakteriologi; Mikrobiologi; mycology; virology; bacteriology; Microbiology; Cysteine proteinase; Streptolysin;

    Abstract : Many bacteria express immunoglobulin(Ig)-binding proteins that interact with Ig in a non-immune manner. Several of these Ig-binding bacterial proteins have been well characterized and are widely used as reagents for analysis and purification of Ig's. READ MORE

  7. 5. Development of immunogenicity models in mice for improved risk assessment of biopharmaceuticals

    Author : Britta Granath; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; anti-drug antibodies; immunogenicity; biopharmaceuticals; immunoglobulin; 3R;

    Abstract : The development of anti-drug-antibodies (ADA) to biopharmaceuticals, e.g. recombinant proteins including monoclonal antibodies (mAb) can lead to adverse events and clinical complications. These include reduced effect of the drug and autoimmune conditions if the administered drug is analogous to endogenous proteins. READ MORE
