    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Sepsis and invasive bacterial infection is a major cause of human disease and death worldwide. Streptococcus pyogenes is one of the major pathogens responsible for bacterial infections, which range from mild to severe and life threatening conditions. S. LÄS MER

  3. 17. α1-acid glycoprotein modulates the function of human neutrophils and platelets

    Författare :Peter Gunnarsson; Magnus Grenegård; Henrik Thorlacius; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : The acute-phase protein α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP; orosomucoid) was initially identified andcharacterised in the 1950s. The normal plasma concentration is around 0.5-1 mg/ml butduring inflammation the concentration increase several fold and the carbohydrate compositionof the protein changes. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Effects of pH on platelets release of growth factors in wound healing

    Författare :Yawei Liu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Wound healing is thought to involve a complex series of interactions between biochemical mediators, cells and extracellular matrix. Known to stimulate cellular movement, proliferation and biosynthetic activity, growth factors may play a significant role in stimulating wound repair. This thesis focuses on the early phase of wound healing. LÄS MER

  5. 19. On the immunopathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus - Immune complexes, type I interferon system, complement system and platelets

    Författare :Christian Lood; Reumatologi och molekylär skelettbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; systemic lupus erythematosus; autoimmunity; rheumatology; immunology; cardiovascular disease;

    Sammanfattning : Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune rheumatic disorder characterized by inflammation in several organ systems. SLE patients have an impaired ability to clear dying cells which leads to the exposure of several nuclear antigens which might break self tolerance. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Studies on antibodies against phospholipids

    Författare :Leopold Årfors; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Antiphospholipid syndrome; anticardiolipin antibodies; lupus anticoagulants; platelets; platelet activation; complement activation; endothelial cells; thromboxane; prostacyclin; acetylsalicylic acid.;

    Sammanfattning : The main clinical features of the antiphospholipid syndrome (APLS) are arterial and venous thrombosis, repeated spontaneous abortions and thrombocytopenia. Diagnosed concomitant with an underlying disease the designation is secondary APLS; otherwise primary APLS. LÄS MER
