  2. 1. Role of pro-inflammatory S100A9 protein in amyloid-neuroinflammatory cascade in Alzheimer’s disease and traumatic brain injury

    Author : Chao Wang; Ludmilla Morozova-Roche; Jonathan Gilthorpe; Øyvind Halskau; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; S100A9; Aβ; Alzheimer s disease; Traumatic brain injury; Amyloid; Neuroinflammatory; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Abstract : Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex disease with a spectrum of symptoms and disabilities. Over the past decade TBI has become the focus of research due to growing epidemiological and clinical evidences that TBI incidences are strong risk factors for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). READ MORE

  4. 2. Genetic regulation of neuroinflammation after infection and injury

    Author : Nada Omar Abdelmagid; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Neuroinflammation is a common theme in a spectrum of central nervous system (CNS) diseases resulting in neuronal damage and degeneration. The exact mechanisms regulating inflammation in the CNS or its consequences in terms of nerve injury are still not known in detail. READ MORE

    Abstract : Background. It is important for improving and maintaining general health to engage in regular physical activity. A major barrier to retain in regular physical activity is quitting because of an injury. In running, one of the most practiced leisure-time physical activities on a global scale, injuries are unfortunately common. READ MORE

  6. 4. Development of a Passive Immunization Strategy Against Atherosclerosis

    Author : Alexandru Schiopu; Kardiovaskulär forskning - immunitet och ateroskleros; []

    Abstract : Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease, characterized by the accumulation of lipids and fibrous tissue in the wall of medium and large-sized arteries. The characteristic culprit of the disease is the atheroma, or atherosclerotic plaque, a patchy thickening of the arterial wall which affects the lumen, inducing various degrees of stenosis.

  7. 5. Intestinal transplantation. Experimental and clinical studies

    Author : Mihai Oltean; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Intestinal preservation; Ischemia-reperfusion injury; Tight junction; FK506; Resistin;

    Abstract : Intestinal preservation-reperfusion injury may result in various degrees of mucosal injury. Interestingly, the preservation injury is similar when using the current preservation solutions, which are given as a intravascular flush. An extensive mucosal injury may ultimately preclude the use of organs that require longer preservation time. READ MORE
