  1. 1. Malassezia-related diseases

    Författare :Aditya Gupta; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Malassezia; dermatoses; yeasts; pityriasis versicolor; atopic dermatitis; seborrheic dermatitis; psoriasis;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether the new taxonomy of Malassezia may have important clinical implications. In particular, the studies look at pityriasis versicolor and other dermatological disorders associated with Malassezia yeasts to see whether there is a clear association between the yeast species and body site colonized and/or disease state.

  3. 2. Methylisothiazolinones. Diagnosis and prevention of allergic contact dermatitis

    Författare :Birgitta Gruvberger; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; venereology; Dermatologi; Dermatology; Prevention.; Chemical burns; Occupational dermatoses; Allergic contact dermatitis; Guinea pig maximization test; Isolation identification of contact sensitizers; Inactivation; Methylisothiazolinones; Kathon® CG; venereologi;

    Sammanfattning : Preservatives are biologically active substances which are required in water-based products/systems to prevent growth of micro-organisms. Kathon® CG (K-CG), one of several preservatives based on 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolinon-3-one (MCI) and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MI) has been shown to be a common sensitizer in dermatitis patients.

  4. 3. Vitamin A and ß-carotene metabolism and effects of UV irradiation in human keratinocytes and melanocytes

    Författare :Eva Andersson; Helen Håkansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Retinoids (vitamin A and its derivatives) are modulators of proliferation and differentiation. Both retinol (ROH) and its metabolite 3,4-didehydroretinol (ddROH) can be converted to retinoic acid (RA) and 3,4-didehydroretinoic acid (ddRA), ligands for the nuclear receptors, which induce gene transcriptions.

  5. 4. Resident T cells steer tissue responses in human skin

    Författare :Borislav Ignatov; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The human skin constitutes a biological barrier against threats to the body from the surrounding environment. Tissue-resident memory cells (TRM) reside in the skin and provide local memory of previous encounters with microbes and pathogens, are poised to promptly eliminating infected cells and elicit tissue-wide defense state.

  7. 5. Harnessing the immunoregulatory capacity of single-stranded oligonucleotides to modulate innate immunity

    Författare :Aleksandra Dondalska; Anna-Lena Spetz; Jenny Hallgren Martinsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; single-stranded oligonucleotides; Toll-like receptors; influenza; respiratory syncytial virus; dendritic cell; mast cell; virus infection; inflammation; itch; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : As the first line of defense, the innate immune system is exceptionally efficacious against invading pathogens but must be tightly regulated to avoid immune-related pathogenesis. Accordingly, the innate immune system recognizes highly conserved components associated with infections and damaged cells using a limited number of pattern-recognition receptors (PRRs), which are differentially expressed across cell types.
