  1. 1. Uterus transplantation: An experimental study in primates

    Författare :Liza Johannesson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; infertility; transplantation; nonhuman primates; uterus; human; immunosuppression;

    Sammanfattning : Most causes of infertility are nowadays treatable, but for women that are infertile due to lack of, or severe malfunction of the uterus, there is as of today no available cure. Uterus transplantation (UTx) may provide a future possibility for treatment of these females with uterine factor infertility (UFI). LÄS MER

  3. 2. Cancer after solid organ transplantation : incidence, risk factors, and survival

    Författare :Henrik Benoni; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Solid organ transplant recipients (OTRs) are at increased risk of cancer compared with the general population, mainly due to post-transplant immunosuppressive treatment. Furthermore, once diagnosed with cancer, OTRs might experience worse cancerspecific and overall survival than non-transplanted cancer patients. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Preparatory Studies to Introduce Regulatory T Cells in Clinical Transplantation

    Författare :David Berglund; Gunnar Tufveson; Olle Korsgren; David Sachs; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Transplantation; Tolerance; Cell therapy; Regulatory T cell; In vivo imaging; Cell purification;

    Sammanfattning : Solid organ transplantation has evolved from being an experimental procedure to a life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage organ failure. The risk of losing a transplant due to acute rejection is very low with the use of modern immunosuppressive protocols and the short-term results are impressive. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Posttransplant Lymphoproliferative Disorders : Studies of Epstein-Barr Virus, Regulatory T Cells and Tumor Origin

    Författare :Amelie Kinch; Karlis Pauksens; Gunilla Enblad; Eva Baecklund; Harald Holte; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PTLD; Lymphoma; Epstein-Barr Virus; EBV DNAemia; FoxP3; Treg; Microenvironment; Cell of Origin; Recipient; Transplantation; Immunosuppression; Hepatitis C; Survival; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infects almost all humans and establishes lifelong latency in B cells. Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare but serious complication after transplantation triggered by immunosuppression and often related to EBV infection. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies of Acute Rejection Using Contrast Agents and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

    Författare :Eva Penno; Håkan Ahlström; Cecilia Johnsson; Lars Johansson; Peter Leander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Radiology; Magnetic resonance imaging; contrast agents; organ transplantation; acute rejection; Radiologisk forskning;

    Sammanfattning : Solid organ transplantation is today an established form of treatment for end-stage organ disease. Monitoring of graft function and pharmacological therapy constitutes a maze of clinical observations and histological evaluations of biopsy specimens; with the biopsy results playing a decisive role.
