2. 1. Regulation of human cell viability by the host defence peptide LL-37

   Author : Daniel Svensson; Kärlfysiologi; []
   Keywords : LL-37; cathelicidin; cytotoxicity; host defence peptides; autoimmune diseases; inflammation; vitamin D;

   Abstract : Accumulating evidence suggests that the main human cathelicidin peptide, LL-37, may influence host cell viability and pro-inflammatory signaling when locally overexpressed. LL-37 has pro-inflammatory properties linked to the development of for example psoriasis, rosacea, SLE and atherosclerosis. READ MORE

4. 2. Host modulation of excessive innate immune responses

   Author : Johannes Westman; Infektionsmedicin; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Abstract : A fundamental role of the innate immune system is to elicit a proper response against both invading pathogens and tissue damage or danger signals. Although the innate immune system often is successful in eliminating danger, an excessive host-response can result in severe tissue injury. READ MORE

5. 3. Endothelial-leukocyte interactions

   Author : Maria Olofsson; Diabetes - öpatofysiologi; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Histology; endothelial cell; leukocyte; apoptosis; mitochondria; heparin binding protein; vascular permeability; E-selectin; migration; rolling; cytochemistry; histochemistry; tissue culture; Histologi; cytokemi; histokemi; vävnadskultur;

   Abstract : This thesis describes early inflammatory responses involving interactions between leukocytes and the endothelial lining of the blood vessel wall. An adhesion molecule, E-selectin, which is upregulated on interleukin-1 activated endothelium, was found to mediate rolling between leukocytes and endothelial cells in vivo. READ MORE
