2. 26. The role of the thromboinflammatory response under hemolytic conditions : pathophysiological mechanisms and therapeutic inhibition

   Author : Alexandra Gerogianni; Per H. Nilsson; Camilla Mohlin; Tom Eirik Mollnes; Kristina Nilsson Ekdahl; Mihály Józsi; Linnéuniversitetet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Hemolysis; heme; thromboinflammation; biomaterials; complement inhibition; LVAD; IONPs; Biomedical Sciences; Biomedicinsk vetenskap; Immunologi; Immunology;

   Abstract : In blood circulation, the complement and the coagulation cascades, together with platelets and endothelial cells form a complex network of crosstalk. When dysregulated, these interactions can lead to inflammation in combination with thrombosis (thromboinflammation) and the manifestation of pathophysiological complications. READ MORE

4. 27. Lactobacilli- and Staphylococcus aureus mediated modulation of immune responses in vitro

   Author : Yeneneh Haileselassie; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Huub Savelkoul; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lactobacilli; staphylococcus aureus; dendritic cells; retinoic acid; epithelial cells; T cells; immunologi; Immunology;

   Abstract : The human gut harbors a vast number of microbes. These microbes are not passive bystanders. They are important in modulating the immune system. We have previously shown that early colonization with lactobacilli and Staphylococcus (S. READ MORE

5. 28. Defining the genetics of systemic autoimmunity in mouse models of lupus

   Author : Katarina Haraldsson; Kristina Lejon; Dwight Kono; Chandra Mohan; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SLE; susceptibility; HgIA; genome-wide mapping; Lbw2; Lmb1-4; suppressing gene; Immunology; Immunologi;

   Abstract : Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic multi-organ autoimmune disease considered a prototype for autoantibody and immune complex-mediated tissue injury. Although autoantibodies against a wide diversity of self-antigens are characteristically found in this disease, an important hallmark is the presence of autoantibodies to nuclear antigens. READ MORE

6. 29. Immune Regulation During Malaria Infection

   Author : Helena Helmby; Edvard Pearce; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; immunologi; Immunology;

   Abstract : Malaria is the largest parasitic disease in the world and is caused by the protozoon Plasmodium. The most severe form in humans is caused by Plasmodium falciparum. Immunity to malaria involves both cell-mediated and humoral responses and develops slowly over a period of ten to fifteen years, requiring repeated infections. READ MORE

7. 30. Immunological profile and aspects of immunotherapy in type 1 diabetes

   Author : Maria Hjorth; Maria Faresjö; Johnny Ludvigsson; Rosaura Casas; Vivianne Malmström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Immunology; Immunologi;

   Abstract : Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic, autoimmune disease caused by a T cell mediated attack on the insulin producing pancreatic ß-cells. Even though reasonable quality of life can be acquired with modern insulin therapy, prevention of acute and late serious complications is facilitated by preservation of residual insulin secretion.
