2. 6. Characterization of the Pancreas in Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes

   Author : Marcus Lundberg; Oskar Skog; Olle Korsgren; Martha Campbell-Thompson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 diabetes; Type 2 diabetes; HbA1c; interferon-stimulated genes; parasympathetic; axon; cellular stress; islets; exocrine; immunology; leucocytes; inflammation; human; pancreas; Endocrinology and Diabetology; Endokrinologi och Diabetologi; Immunologi; Immunology; Patologi; Pathology;

   Abstract : Diabetes is recognized by hyperglycaemia and polyuria. Complications, reduced quality of life and staggering health-care costs are all derived from the disease. Two subclasses of diabetes are Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and Type 2 diabetes (T2D). READ MORE

4. 7. Why Is It So Hard to Kill a Mast Cell?A Study of Mast Cell Activation and Survival

   Author : Xiang Zou; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; A1; allergy; apoptosis; Bfl-1; degranulation; FcepsilonRI; IgE; inflammation; mast cells; nerve growth factor; regranulation; TrkA; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Pathology; patologi;

   Abstract : Mast cells have a long life in tissues, where they are involved in inflammatory and hypersensitivity reactions. Activation through cross-linking of the high-affinity IgE-receptor (FcεRI) is a primary stimulus capable of degranulating mast cells, contributing to symptoms of allergy. READ MORE

5. 8. Inflammation and immunothrombosis in cerebral cavernous malformation : Novel molecular targets for the treatment of an incurable disease

   Author : Maria Ascención Globisch; Peetra Magnusson; Elisabetta Dejana; Marie Jeansson; Anna Randi; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Cavernoma; Inflammation; Coagulation; Blood-brain-barrier; Blood; Hypoxia; Propranolol; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär immunologi; Biology with specialization in Molecular Immunology;

   Abstract : Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular disease that causes mulberry-like lesions (cavernomas) in the central nervous system (CNS). Cavernomas are fragile, leaky and prone to rupture which may cause symptoms such as epileptic seizures, focal neurological deficits and hemorrhagic strokes. CCM lesions can appear sporadically in 0.

6. 9. Brain Inflammation and Adult Hippocampal Neurogenesis in Epilepsy

   Author : Deepti Chugh; Lund Neurologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Epilepsy; Inflammation; Neurogenesis; Hippocampus; Microglia; Adhesion molecules; Scaffolding proteins;

   Abstract : Epilepsy is a severe chronic neurological disorder characterized by recurrent spontaneous seizures. Excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) imbalance, neuronal loss, brain inflammation, and altered adult neurogenesis are some of the characteristic hallmarks of epilepsy. READ MORE

7. 10. Influence of leukotriene D4 and cyclooxygenase-2 on cell survival

   Author : Katarina Wikström; Malmö Experimentell patologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pathological anatomy; Patologi allmän ; General pathology; colorectal cancer; inflammation; apoptosis; LTD4; COX-2; patologisk anatomi;

   Abstract : The pro-inflammatory effect of leukotrienes is an important element in the pathogenesis of multiple disorders, including asthma and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). A serious concern for IBD patients is the increased risk of developing colorectal cancer and since there seems to be a general connection between inflammation and cancer we hypothesised that LTD4 induced signalling events could be involved in increasing the tumourgenic potential of cells.
