16. Identification of Arthritis Regulating Genes in Rats
Sammanfattning : The immune response is designed to protect the body from harmful microbial invasions. However, when the immune system attacks itself instead, an autoimmune reaction starts that damage our own cells, tissues and organs. LÄS MER
17. Genetic and epigenetic factors shaping the transcriptome in multiple sclerosis and its animal model
Sammanfattning : Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory and demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. Susceptibility to develop MS is determined by both genetic and environmental factors. The epigenome resides in the interface of genetic and environmental factors thereby shaping the transcriptome.

18. Studies on peripheral tolerance in Aire-deficient mice
Sammanfattning : Autoimmune diseases such as diabetes mellitus and multiple sclerosis are increasing today, but the mechanism behind these diseases remains largely unknown. Autoimmunity arise when the immune system of an individual start to attack its own organs and tissues. LÄS MER
19. Genetic regulation of neuroinflammation : a translational approach
Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS), causing demyelination and axonal damage. As other complex diseases with an inflammatory or autoimmune component, MHC is a strong regulator of the disease and acts in concert with multiple nonMHC genes and environmental factors. LÄS MER
20. Identification of candidate genes involved in Mercury Toxicokinetics and Mercury Induced Autoimmunity
Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND: Autoimmune diseases require the involvement and activation of immune cells and occur when the body builds up an immune response against its own tissues. This process takes place due to the inability to distinguish self-antigen from foreign antigen. Systemic autoimmunity represents an important cause of morbidity and mortality in humans. LÄS MER
