2. Genetic studies of complex autoimmune disease
Sammanfattning : In complex autoimmune diseases, there are both genetic and environmental factors that influence our immune system and contribute to the development of disease. The pathways, interactions and mode of inheritance are difficult to unravel, and many discoveries are yet to be done. LÄS MER
3. Genetic variation of tight junction structures in intestinal inflammation
Sammanfattning : The epithelial barrier facing the external environment in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is comprised of several components, including the tight junction (TJ) structures observed for the first time in 1963. TJ structures, which are multiprotein complexes composed of transmembrane proteins and a diverse spectrum of intracellular components, create a primary barrier to diffusion of ions, solutes, and water and they concomitantly prevent permeation of pro-inflammatory factors, such as pathogens, toxins, and antigens.

4. Aspects of beta cell and thyroid autoimmunity in children
Sammanfattning : The two most common autoimmune endocrine diseases in children are autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) and Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Autoantibodies (ab) can be found several years before clinical diagnosis in both diseases. LÄS MER
5. Perinatal risk factors for type 1 diabetes in children and adolescents
Sammanfattning : Background Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by progressive loss of the insulin producing pancreatic β-cells. The disease process starts years before the clinical diagnosis. The cause of T1D is unknown, but it is believed to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors. LÄS MER
