  1. 16. Comorbidity, distress, coping and social support in asthma and allergy

    Author : Nina Lind; Steven Nordin; Anna-Sara Claeson; Eva Millqvist; Rosalind Wright; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : atopy; asthma; allergy; allergic rhinitis; atopic dermatitis; environmental intolerance; chemical intolerance; building intolerance; psychological distress; stress; anxiety; depression; burnout; coping; social support;

    Abstract : Asthma and allergies are some of the most common illnesses worldwide that almost everybody will come in contact with. This thesis studied persons with allergic asthma, non-allergic asthma, allergic rhinitis and atopic dermatitis in a population-based sample. At an early stage, these illnesses were regarded as psychosomatic. READ MORE

  2. 17. Consequences of Shb Deficiency on Hematopoietic Cell Function

    Author : Karin Gustafsson; Michael Welsh; Martin Bergö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hematopoiesis; hematopoietic stem cells; myeloid neoplasia; T cells; atopic dermatitis; cell signaling; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The adaptor protein Shb has been implicated in the signaling of several tyrosine kinase receptors and previous studies have suggested a role for Shb in the signal transduction of T cells. Shb associates with the T cell receptor (TCR) and partakes in the signal propagation of activated T lymphocytes. READ MORE

  3. 18. Studies on colonization and infection with Staphylococcus aureus and other microbes in skin disease

    Author : Mikael Alsterholm; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; balanoposthitis; microbes; Staphylococcus aureus; Candida; Malassezia; fusidic acid; fusidic acid-resistant S. aureus; impetigo; atopic dermatitis; azoles; clioquinol; halquinol; hydrogen peroxide; skin infection;

    Abstract : The skin is colonized with a wide range of microbes. Some offer vital protection from colonization and infection with pathogenic strains while others have the capacity to cause or exacerbate disease. READ MORE

  4. 19. Mast cells in Hodgkin lymphoma : or 'What's a nice cell like you doing in a tumour like this?'

    Author : Marie Fischer; Gunnar Nilsson; Gunilla Enblad; Tor Olofsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; Hodgkin lymphoma; mast cells; CD30; CD30L; IL-9; CCL5; atopic dermatitis; psoriasis; IL-8; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi;

    Abstract : Mast cell (MC) accumulation around tumours is an old observation gaining new relevance due to the multifaceted nature of MCs and their many roles in immunity, beyond allergy. Knowledge about tumour specific recruitment of, and interactions with, MCs is needed to unravel the function of their presence. READ MORE

  5. 20. Array-based identification of disease-associated proteins

    Author : Maria Mikus; Peter Nilsson; Jochen M. Schwenk; Ina Schuppe-Koistinen; Dolores Cahill; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Affinity proteomics; Antibody array; Antigen array; Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; Asthma; Atopic dermatitis; Biomarker discovery; Drug-induced liver injury; Microarray; Plasma; Protein microarray; Protein profiling; Serum; Suspension bead array; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : To increase our understanding of the human body in both health and disease, proteins can be studied in samples such as plasma and serum to provide a molecular profile of the physiological status. In the work presented in this thesis, array-based methods were used to study associations of protein and autoantibody profiles with disease. READ MORE
