    Sammanfattning : Lyme borreliosis was first described some 30 years ago in the USA. Today, it is the most common vector borne disease in Europe and the USA. The disease can have multiple stages and symptoms can manifest from various parts of the body; joints, skin heart and nervous system.

  3. 2. Antibodies during pregnancy : Aspects on complications during pregnancy and complications related to transfusion

    Författare :Miodrag Palfi; Olof Sjöberg; Linköpings universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : The fetus acquires half of its genetic infonnation from the father and represents a foreign graft in pregnancy. The overall mechanisms contributing to immunologic tolerance and successful pregancy still are an enigma. Accumulating results of immunologic research, however, offer an explanation for many events in pregnancy. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS) is an autoimmune disease, primarliy affecting women, characterised by inflammation and destruction of exocrine glands with a prevalence of 0.01-0.09%. About one-third of the patients also suffer from extraglandular manifestations e. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Studies of Rejection in Experimental Xenotransplantation

    Författare :Tomas Lorant; Annika Tibell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; Antibodies; cell culturing; cytokines; hyaluronan; immunosuppression; mouse; rat; rejection; T lymphocytes; xenotransplantation.; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi; Surgery; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : One main hurdle to xenotransplantation, i.e. transplantation between different species, is the immunological barrier that the organ meets in the recipient. The aim of this thesis was to characterise xenogeneic rejection mechanisms by using the concordant mouse-to-rat heart transplantation model. LÄS MER
