  2. 1. Eosinophil Inflammation in Allergic Disease : Clinical and experimental studies in allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis

    Author : Mary Kämpe; Marie Carlson; Christer Janson; Gunnemar Stålenheim; Magnus Sköld; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Allergic asthma; allergic rhinitis; eosinophils; pollen season; bronchial challenge; nasal challenge eosinophil degranulation; PI3K signalling; Allergology; Allergologi; Lung Medicine; Lungmedicin; Lung Medicine; Lungmedicin;

    Abstract : Allergic diseases are chronic inflammatory conditions, characterised by eosinophil inflammation systemically and in target organs, where cytotoxic granule proteins are responsible for tissue injury. Allergic rhinitis is known to be a risk factor for the development of asthma, yet not all with rhinitis develop asthma. READ MORE

  4. 2. Allergic airway disease : studies on diesel exhaust exposures, oxylipins and antioxidants

  6. 4. Preterm birth and allergic disease

    Author : Niki Mitselou; Jonas Ludvigsson; Erik Melén; Kari Christine Nadeau; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Allergen-specific immunotherapy; allergic rhinitis; caesarean delivery; epidemiology; preterm birth; sensitization; paediatrics; pregnancy;

    Abstract : Allergic diseases are very common in children and young adults, while there is an ongoing interest worldwide in exploring the early origins of these conditions. The perinatal period is considered crucial as it encompasses the maturation of gut microbiota and the establishment of an efficient immunoregulation. READ MORE

  7. 5. Immunoregulation in an experimental model of allergic asthma

    Author : Magnus Korsgren; Avdelningen för klinisk kemi och farmakologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; allergic asthma; macrophage migration inhibitory factor; eosinophils; gd T cells; NK1.1 T cells; natural killer cells; immunoglobulins; B cells; innate immunity; allergic airway inflammation; immediate hypersensitivity; Physiology; Fysiologi; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi;

    Abstract : In allergic asthma the immune response to antigen is inappropriate, leading to an inflammatory process in the respiratory mucosa. To further elucidate immunological mechanisms involved in the development of such inflammation, control mice and mice deficient in selected cell types or proteins, were used in experimental models of allergic asthma and anaphylaxis.
