  1. 1. The Primary Lymphocyte Culture in the Diagnosis of Drug- and Metal-Induced Allergy

    Författare :Karin Cederbrant; Ernst Gleichmann; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Drugs and metals are examples of xenobiotics that can induce hypersensitivity in humans. These adverse reactions are classified as allergy if repeated exposure leads to the same type of clinical manifestation. Together with the clinical history, the skin test is the most commonly used test for the diagnosis of allergic disease. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Gold allergy : In vitro studies using peripheralblood mononuclear cells

    Författare :Jenny Clifford; Per Hultman; Karin Cederbrant; Chris Anderson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dermatology and venerology; Dermatologi och venerologi;

    Sammanfattning : Positive patch test reactions to gold are commonly seen in dermatology clinics, but it is veryunusual for the patients to actually have any clinical symptoms. It is also common with irritantreactions that are not linked to adaptive immunity. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Fcγ-receptors in systemic autoimmune conditions : lessons from murine mercury-induced autoimmunity

    Författare :Klara Martinsson; Per Hultman; Karin Cederbrant; Johan Rönnelid; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we investigated the role of activating (FcγRI, FcγRIII) and inhibitory (FcγRIIB) Fcγ-receptors on systemic autoimmunity using two mouse strains, DBA/1 (H-2q) and BALB/c mice (H-2d), susceptible to induction of autoimmunity by mercury (Hg).Fc-receptors for IgG (FcγR) link cellular and humoral immune responses, control the balance between activating and inhibitory immune responses and are important in the development of several autoimmune diseases.
