    Abstract : The key function of innate immunity is to sense danger signals and initiate effective responses as a defense mechanism against pathogens. Simultaneously, effector responses must be regulated to avoid excessive inflammation with resulting tissue damage. READ MORE

  4. 2. On Generation and Function of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps in Abdominal Sepsis

    Author : Avin Hawez; Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Abdominal sepsis; inflamation; neutrophil; neutrophil extracellular traps; mRNA; adhesion.;

    Abstract : AbstractSepsis is a clinical condition that develops when the immune system over-response to an infection. Sepsis can lead to organ failure as well as subsequent death. Sepsis-induced host response involves neutrophil over activation which can lead to self tissue damage. READ MORE

    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the most common malignancies in certain areas of Southern China, Southeastern Asia and Northern Africa. Currently, evaluation of NPC prognosis is mainly based on the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system. READ MORE

  6. 4. MicroRNA-Mediated Migration of Colon Cancer Cells

    Author : Anwar Algaber; Kirurgi; []
