  1. 6. Single cell studies of human T cell function with applications for HIV-1

    Författare :Johanna Tauriainen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : T cells are one of the body’s main defenses against viruses and cancers and are therefore considered to play a major role in immunotherapies after stem cell transplantation and in HIV-1 vaccine and cure strategies. However, malignancies and chronic viral infections, such as HIV-1, eventually cause the T cells to become dysfunctional, resulting in a loss of control. LÄS MER

  3. 7. On the role of nitric oxide in bladder cancer and renal cell carcinoma

    Författare :Olof T Jansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :urogenital tract; renal cell; transitional cell; carcinoma; nitric oxide; nitric oxide synthase; cytokines; apoptosis; BCG; cystitis;

    Sammanfattning : The role of nitric oxide (NO) in tumour biology is unclear. There are conflicting reports in the literature whether NO will promote or inhibit tumour growth. The aim of the present thesis was to investigate the role of NO in bladder cancer and renal cell carcinoma. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Interdisciplinary characterization of T cell dynamics in HIV infection

    Författare :Marcus Buggert; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : HIV has caused one of the most devastating pandemics in modern medicine. HIV infects and kills on of the central players in effector immunity, CD4+ T cells, that provide helper mechanisms to all arms of the immune system. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Human innate lymphoid cell trafficking and function in vivo

    Författare :Arlisa Alisjahbana; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Human organs and tissues, such as the lung, are composed of various spatially distinct anatomical compartments. Each compartment represents a different tissue environment within the organ, performs specific functions and in turn promotes the development, migration, and function of specific cell types. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Regeneration of the auditory nerve : a cell transplantation study

    Författare :Björn Palmgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Since in mammals, the hair cells or the spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in the inner ear do not regenerate, damage to these cells is an irreversible process. Presently the only aid for patients with severe to profound hearing impairment due to damaged hair cells is a cochlear implant (CI). LÄS MER
