11. Minimal Residual Disease Assessment in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Sammanfattning : Traditionally, response to treatment in hematological malignancies is evaluated by light microscopy of bone marrow (BM) smears, but due to more effective therapies more sensitive methods are needed. Today, detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) using immunological and molecular techniques can be 100 times more sensitive than morphology. LÄS MER
12. Pattern recognition and iNKT cell regulation of B cell activation
Sammanfattning : The immune system protects individuals against infections but can cause disease if the response is unbalanced. Immune responses include both innate and adaptive response, and these systems are connected. As the first line of defense, innate immune responses are immediately induced upon infection. LÄS MER
13. Early events in T cell development
Sammanfattning : T cells constitute a heterogenous population of lymphocytes. Their unifying property is that they express surface bound antigen-receptors, called T cell receptors (TCRs). The TCR is a heterodimer composed of either TCRalpha and beta chain proteins (alphabeta TCR) or gamma and delta chain proteins (gammadelta TCR). LÄS MER
14. Maturation of humoral immune responses : Studies on the effects of antigen type, apoptosis and age
Sammanfattning : The humoral immune response is dependent on the formation of antibodies. Antibodies are produced by terminally differentiated B cells, plasma cells. Plasma cells are generated either directly from antigen challenged B cells, memory cells or from cells that have undergone the germinal center (GC) reaction. LÄS MER
15. The development of a new combined adjuvant vector for mucosal immunization CTA1-DD/ISCOM
Sammanfattning : The CTA1-DD/ISCOMs vector is a rationally designed mucosal adjuvant that was developed to host the distinctive properties of either adjuvant alone or in a combination that hosted additive enhancing effects on mucosal immune responses. Here I demonstrate that CTA1-DD can be incorporated into the ISCOM with greatly augmented immunogenicity of both incorporated and admixed antigen. LÄS MER
