1. Herpesvirus-induced glycans: Selectin ligands and related structures on the surface of the infected cell
Sammanfattning : Human herpesviruses are usually acquired early in life and are widely distributed in the population. A common feature of all human herpesviruses is that they persist in the host after the primary infection. LÄS MER
2. Synthetic analogs of sialyl Lewis x
Sammanfattning : The sialyl Lewis x (SLex) tetrasaccharide is the smallest recognizable ligand for selectins. The selectins constitute a vital part of the inflammatory cascade for recruitment of leukocytes to a site of tissue damage or microbial infection. LÄS MER
3. Mediator synergism in mast celldependent inflammation : role of histamine for leukocyte recruitment
Sammanfattning : The aim of the present thesis was to study functional interactions between histamine and chemotactic mediators, and the role of histamine for leukocyte recruitment in mast cell-dependent inflammation. Leukocyte rolling, adhesion and emigration. LÄS MER
4. On Microvascular Inflammation and Intestinal Leakage in Radiation Enteropathy
Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal tract damage is an insidious feature in patients undergoing radiotherapy. Microvascular inflammation, including leukocyte and platelet recruitment as well as epithelial barrier dysfunction, are considered to constitute key components in the pathophysiology of radiation-induced enteropathy. LÄS MER
5. Interactions between leukocytes, platelets and the endothelium in vein graft failure
Sammanfattning : Autologous venous grafts are preferred conduits in bypass surgery due to their length, easy harvesting, and feasibility. However, development of intimal hyperplasia decreases long-term patency rate in venous grafts prompting close clinical surveillance and further intervention. LÄS MER
