  1. 16. Studying the influence of the physicochemical properties of lipid nanoparticles for mucosal vaccine delivery

    Författare :Karin Norling; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; influenza; nanoparticles; CTA1-DD; liposomes; dendritic cells; lipodisks; antigen presentation; flow cytometry; vaccine carriers; TIRF microscopy;

    Sammanfattning : Lipid-based nanoparticles have attracted attention as promising pharmaceutical carriers. Reports of them having inherent adjuvant properties make them particularly interesting as vaccine vectors; however, the physicochemical profile of an ideal nanoparticle for mucosal vaccine delivery remains unknown.

  2. 17. Immunity to Salmonella infection

    Författare :Cecilia Johansson; Immunologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; cytokines; antigen presentation; liver; dendritic cells; Salmonella; gram negative bacteria;

    Sammanfattning : The immune system has several strategies to combat infections. The present study investigates various aspects of the interaction between Gram negative bacteria, particularly Salmonella, and antigen presenting cells (APC). Salmonella is an intracellular bacterium infecting mice and man. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Liposomes for mucosal vaccine delivery: physicochemical characterization and biological application

    Författare :Karin Norling; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; nanoparticles; vaccine carriers; antigen presentation; dendritic cells; surface plasmon resonance; flow cytometry; liposomes; cellular uptake; fluorescence microscopy; influenza;

    Sammanfattning : Liposomes are attractive vaccine carriers due to their potential to act as adjuvants, and to the fact that their composition and characteristics are virtually endlessly customizable. However, the precise physicochemical profile of an ideal carrier liposome for mucosal vaccines is still widely unknown, and how different properties affect key steps in the acquisition of protective immunity remains to be elucidated.

  4. 19. Gene and Protein Profiling of the Preeclamptic Placenta

    Författare :Magnus Centlow; Lund Obstetrik och gynekologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antigen presentation; APOA1; hemoglobin; immunohistochemistry; in situ hybridization; Microarray; 2D-PAGE; uterine artery bilateral notching;

    Sammanfattning : Aims State-of-the-art methodology was used to screen and profile the placenta, gene and protein expression, for changes related to preeclampsia (PE) and cases with increased resistance in the uterine arteries. Women with increased resistance in the uterine arteries have increased risk of developing PE. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Regulation of T cell effector functions in the intestinal mucosa

    Författare :Petra Holmkvist; Slemhinnans immunologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; T cells; memory; intestine; cytokines; differentiation; IL-18; inflammation; antigen presentation;

    Sammanfattning : T lymphocytes are a critical cellular component of the adaptive immune response. They are generated in the thymus from bone marrow derived progenitors, where they undergo commitment to the T cell lineage and differentiate and mature into naïve CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. LÄS MER
