  2. 11. Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha as a target cytokine in vascular disease

    Author : Lena Brånén; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; apoptosis; cell replication; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet; spindle-shaped; epithelioid; smooth muscle cells; periadventitial cuff injury; sTNF-R1; bone marrow transplantation; chimeric fusion protein; atherogenic diet; ApoE; TNF-a; genetically altered mice; en face preparation; atherosclerosis; neointimal hyperplasia;

    Abstract : Inflammation plays an important role in atherosclerosis. One of the most potent pro-inflammatory cytokines is tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a), a cytokine identified to have a pathogenic role in chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA). READ MORE

  4. 12. Infectious Pancreatic NEcrosis Virus - Immunogenicity, Virion Integrity and Virus/Cell Interaction

    Author : Helena Fridholm; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Microbiology; Virology; IPNV;

    Abstract : Viruses are ubiquitous in all environments where life is present, also in aquatic environments. The fish-pathogenic virus, Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), has generally been studied because it causes high mortality amongst hatchery-reared salmonids in aqua culture facilities around the world.

  6. 14. Studies on Redox-proteins and Cytokines in inflammation and Cancer

    Author : Akter Hossain; Anders Rosén; Christer Lindqvist; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Thioredoxin Trx ; Selenium; Tumor necrosis factor TNF ; Cancer; nflammation; oxidative stress; Protein-disulfide isomerase PDI ; Tumor necrosis factor receptor TNFR ; Medical cell biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The redox state in the cell plays a major role in determining vital functions and its major imbalance can lead to severe cell injury or death. Redox active proteins and cytokines involved in this process includes thioredoxin (Trx), protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamilies. READ MORE

  7. 15. Tumor necrosis factor superfamily members CD137 and OX40 ligand in vascular inflammation

    Author : Leif Söderström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Atherosclerosis, an inflammatory disease, is the major cause of cardiovascular disease - the main cause of death worldwide. T cells are central orchestrators of inflammation in atherosclerosis and critically depend on costimulation for adequate function. READ MORE
