  1. 6. Neuro-immune regulation of macromolecular permeability in the normal human colon and in ulcerative colitis

    Författare :Conny Wallon; Johan Dabrosin Söderholm; Peter Naredi; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Colitis; ulcerative; colon; sigmoid; cytology; immunohistochemistry; Gastroenterology; Gastroenterologi;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aim: Persistent stress and life events affect the course of ulcerative colitis (UC) by largely unknown mechanisms. Regulation of epithelial permeability to antigens is crucial for the balance between inflammation and immuno-surveillance, and increased intestinal permeability has been shown in patients with ulcerative colitis.

    Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant diseases world-wide. Most patients can be diagnosed, staged and treated by surgery in an elective setting. However, about one fifth of the patients will have an emergency presentation and in most cases due to malignant obstruction of the left colon. LÄS MER

  7. 10. On Microvascular Inflammation and Intestinal Leakage in Radiation Enteropathy

    Författare :Andrada Röme; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radiation; colon; intestinal leakage; Leukocyte and platelet recruitment;

    Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal tract damage is an insidious feature in patients undergoing radiotherapy. Microvascular inflammation, including leukocyte and platelet recruitment as well as epithelial barrier dysfunction, are considered to constitute key components in the pathophysiology of radiation-induced enteropathy.
