  4. 7. A close-up on neutrophils : Visualizing the mechanisms of their in vivo recruitment and function

    Author : Sara Massena; Mia Phillipson; Randall S. Jonhson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; angiogenesis; chemokine; chemotactic gradient; citrullination; hypoxia; inflammation; intraluminal crawling; intravital imaging; PAD enzymes; permeability; proangiogenic; proinflammatory;

    Abstract : A successful immune response depends on prompt and sufficient recruitment of leukocytes from the circulation to infected or injured sites. Mobilization of leukocytes to hypoxic tissues is vital for angiogenesis, i.e. the formation of new blood vessels from preexisting vasculature, and thus crucial for tissue growth and regeneration.

  5. 8. Rac1 signaling regulates platelet-dependent inflammation abdominal sepsis

    Author : Rundk Hwaiz; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; abdominal sepsis; Rac1; platelet; neutrophil; chemokine; inflammation;

    Abstract : Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome to a localized or systemic infection that leads to the over production of proinflammatory cytokines and the ultimate failure of multiple organ systems. However, little is known about the potential role of Rac1 in controlling sepsis-induced intracellular signaling pathways. READ MORE

  6. 9. Febrile Urinary Tract Infection: P fimbriae, Innate Host Response and Bacteremia

    Author : Gisela Otto; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prsGJ96; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; papGIA2; antibiotic therapy; urine; chemokine; interleukin-6; host response; P fimbriae; bacteremia; febrile urinary tract infection; Escherichia coli;

    Abstract : Urinary tract infections (UTI) are among the most common human infections, and febrile UTI with bacteremia the most severe form. The relation between bacteria and host decides disease severity. The dominating uropathogen is Escherichia coli (E. coli). READ MORE

  7. 10. Recruitment, Differentiation, and Function of monocytes during Salmonella infection

    Author : Anna Rydström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Salmonella; Monocyte; Neutrophil; Chemokine; Toll-like receptor; Differentiation;

    Abstract : Monocytes are a heterogeneous population in the blood with an enormous plasticity whose fate and functions are dictated by the microenvironment. They are phenotypically and functionally related to neutrophils and dendritic cells (DCs) and share an overlapping expression pattern of surface molecules with these cells. READ MORE
