  1. 1. Immune modulation of macrophages by the meningococcal surface protein NhhA

    Författare :Xiao Wang; Hong Sjölinder; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Functional immune modulation of macrophages play important role during bacterial infection. Neisseria meningitidis, a gram-negative diplococcal bacterium, is the leading cause of bacterial meningitis and fatal septic shock. However, it is also a commensal bacterium that colonizes the nasopharynx of healthy individuals asymptomatically. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Macrophage programming and host responses to bacterial infection

    Författare :Xiao Wang; Hong Sjölinder; Martin Rottenberg; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Macrophages; meningococci; mycobacteria; NhhA; CD46; cytokines; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Macrophages are dynamic, plastic, and heterogeneous immune cells that play an important role in host immune defense against bacterial infection. Various bacterial pathogens, such as Neisseria meningitidis and Mycobacterium tuberculosis, can modulate host immune responses by interfering with macrophage differentiation and polarization. LÄS MER
