  1. 1. Cytokines and cytokine-directed intervention in experimental arthritis

    Författare :Karin Palmblad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :pro-inflammatory cytokines; collagen-induced arthritis; CNI-1493; HMG-1;

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic autoimmune and inflammatory disease. Although the etiology of RA remains unknown, a general understanding of the pathogenesis is steadily increasing. The macrophage products tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin 1 (IL-1) are recognized as pivotal mediators in the arthritic process. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Modulation of the inflammatory response in experimental bacterial meningitis

    Författare :Carl Granert; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :bacteria; meningitis; adhesion; leukocytes; microcirculation; fucoidin; cytokines; tumor necrosis factor; interleukin; CNI-1493; macrophage; CNS; inflammation; experimental;

    Sammanfattning : In bacterial meningitis, tissue damage in the central nervous system (CNS) is inflicted by the host's inflammatory response to invading pathogens, rather than by the bacteria itself. Adjuvant treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs in experimental bacterial meningitis has demonstrated beneficial effects on CNS pathology. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Modulation of inflammatory mediators during experimental bacterial meningitis

    Författare :Hana Khidir Abdalla; Kristian Riesbeck; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Bacterial meningitis is a worldwide health problem with high morbidity and mortality mainly caused by Haemophilus influenzae, Neisseria meningitidis and Streptococcus pneumoniae. It is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (eNS) initiated by cell wall or membrane components from the bacteria. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Tissue destruction in arthritis : experimental studies

    Författare :Esbjörn Larsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Destruction of joint cartilage and bone is one of the most serious consequences of chronic arthritis. Clinically, the standard assessment of joint destruction is performed by radiography. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies of high mobility group chromosomal protein 1 as a pro-inflammatory cytokine

    Författare :Gail E Mullins; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HMGB1; endothelial cells; pro-inflammatory; cytokine; RAGE;

    Sammanfattning : High mobility group box chromosomal protein 1 (HMGB 1) is a nuclear protein recently recognised as a pro-inflammatory cytokine with implications both in acute and in chronic inflammation. HMGB1 has been reported to act as a late mediator of septic shock in mice. LÄS MER
