  1. 1. Experimental Chagas disease

    Author : John Andersson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Trypanosoma cruzi; NK cells; cytotoxicity; IFN-gamma; IL-12; IFN-alpha beta; Chagas disease; polymyositis; myocarditis; genotype dependence and Toll-like receptors.;

    Abstract : The main focus of this thesis was to develop and utilise experimental models using the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. We were especially interested in studying the activation of NK cells early after T. cruzi infection and what factors that predispose to a chronic inflammatory disease after T. cruzi infection.
