    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes a series of experiments aimed at elucidating the mechanisms ofimmunity and pathology elicited by both a primary infection and a reinfection exposure toSchistosoma mansoni following chemotherapy. The effects of a single large cercarial doseand a cumulatively equivalent dose, administered as multiple small doses are compared. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a multifactorial, polygenic autoimmune disease. For effective treatment and control of RA, understanding of disease pathways and identification of genes involved are essential. Animal models are efficient tools to identify such pathogenic mechanisms and genes underlying the disease process. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Humanized mice as a model to study human immunity

    Författare :Frank Heuts; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Mice with human immune systems have evolved over the last three decades. Over the years, these humanized mouse models have provided us with valuable information on human immunity. Recent developments in recipient mouse strains and engraftment protocols have resulted in models with high level of de novo formation of human immune cells. LÄS MER

  5. 9. 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate: Effects on the immune system in mice

    Författare :Elisabeth Sandberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The use of acrylic compounds in dentistry has increased. Different derivatives of acrylic acid are used in dental bonding material, in resins and in glass ionomer cements. While there have been only a few reports on adverse reactions in patients, there is substantial evidence of adverse reactions in dental personnel. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Pup mortality in laboratory mice : influence of maternal behaviour and housing environment

    Författare :Elin Weber; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Successful mouse breeding is a crucial part of providing animals for research. However, loss of single pups or entire litters after birth is a relatively common problem. LÄS MER
