  2. 1. On the role of mast cells in chemokine-induced leukocyte recruitment

    Author : Yusheng Wang; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; chemokines; mast cells; TNF-alpha; dexamethasone; P-selectin; E-selectin; activation; Medicine human and vertebrates ; endothelial cells; adhesion; Neutrophil; Medicin människa och djur ; recruitment;

    Abstract : Leukocyte recruitment is considered to playa key role in numerous inflammatory diseases. Tissue accumulation of Jeukocytes is a multi-steps process comprising rolling, adhesion and transmigration. READ MORE

  4. 2. Innate and adaptive immunity in genital HSV-2 infection: Implications for vaccine development

    Author : Ali M Harandi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : genital herpes infection; natural antibody; CD4 T cells; CD8 T cells; IFN-g; IL-12; IL-18; CC chemokines; dendritic cells.;

    Abstract : Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a sexually transmitted pathogen that infects the genital tract mucosa and is the most common case of genital ulcers in humans. Despite numerous studies, little is known about the mechanisms involved in immune protection and no anti-herpes vaccine has been developed to date. READ MORE

  5. 3. Dysregulated mucosal immune responses in microscopic colitis patients

    Abstract : Mucosal infections trigger an inflammatory response that includes the secretion of cytokines and the recruitment of neutrophils to the infected site. This thesis describes studies examining the molecular mechanisms of neutrophil migration to sites of mucosal bacterial infection. Escherichia coli (E. READ MORE

  7. 5. Gene regulation in psoriatic keratinocytes : microRNAs and cytokine responses

    Author : Ankit Srivastava; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Psoriasis is the most common chronic skin inflammation in adults which affects 2-4% of the world population. Keratinocytes are the key structural cells in epidermis which hyper-proliferate and undergo aberrant differentiation in psoriasis. READ MORE
