  2. 16. Gold allergy : In vitro studies using peripheralblood mononuclear cells

    Author : Jenny Clifford; Per Hultman; Karin Cederbrant; Chris Anderson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dermatology and venerology; Dermatologi och venerologi;

    Abstract : Positive patch test reactions to gold are commonly seen in dermatology clinics, but it is veryunusual for the patients to actually have any clinical symptoms. It is also common with irritantreactions that are not linked to adaptive immunity. READ MORE

  4. 17. Resident T cells steer tissue responses in human skin

    Author : Borislav Ignatov; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The human skin constitutes a biological barrier against threats to the body from the surrounding environment. Tissue-resident memory cells (TRM) reside in the skin and provide local memory of previous encounters with microbes and pathogens, are poised to promptly eliminating infected cells and elicit tissue-wide defense state.

  5. 18. 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate: Effects on the immune system in mice

    Author : Elisabeth Sandberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The use of acrylic compounds in dentistry has increased. Different derivatives of acrylic acid are used in dental bonding material, in resins and in glass ionomer cements. While there have been only a few reports on adverse reactions in patients, there is substantial evidence of adverse reactions in dental personnel. READ MORE

  6. 19. Mechanisms of resident T cell-driven tissue responses during the onset and recurrence of human skin inflammation

    Author : Irène Gallais Sérézal; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Long-lived tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) reside in nonlymphoid organs and can drive direct cytotoxicity, focal cytokine release and potent tissue-wide anti-infectious responses upon antigenic challenge. TRM cells poised to pathogenic responses have been identified in active and resolved psoriasis and mice models of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). READ MORE

  7. 20. Mass Spectrometry Strategies for Characterization of Contact Allergens and their Protein Conjugates in Vitro and in Vivo

    Author : Lorena Ndreu; Isabella Karlsson; Margareta Törnqvist; Ulrika Nilsson; Maja Aleksic; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mass spectrometry; Skin allergy; Protein Adducts; In vitro methods; Bioanalysis; Analytical Chemistry; analytisk kemi;

    Abstract : Humans are daily exposed to chemicals from various sources, including cosmetics, jewelry, clothes, and hair dyes, which can result in the occurrence of contact allergy and subsequent allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), a type IV delayed hypersensitivity reaction. ACD is characterized by inflammation and eczema at the site of exposure, and no definitive cure for this condition has been identified to date, with only symptomatic treatment options involving corticosteroids being available.
