6. Photosensitivity in cutaneous lupus erythematosus clinical and experimental studies
Sammanfattning : Lupus erythematosus (LE) is an autoimmune disease in which the skin is one of the main target organs. Photosensitivity is a common feature for the different subtypes of cutaneous LE, but photosensitivity has not been well defined. LÄS MER
7. Endothelial cell interactions with neutrophils : studies of adhesion and effects of lipoxygenase metabolites and antirheumatic drugs
Sammanfattning : Inflammation is a process of vital importance in the defence and elimination of microorganisms as well as in the repair of the damaged tissue. However, inadequate or excessive inflammation leads to inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. LÄS MER
8. Carbohydrate dependent adhesion of leukocytes and the role of fucosyltransferase VII
Sammanfattning : Galectins, E-and P-selectins are carbohydrate-binding proteins that are up regulated at inflammatory lesions. Selectins expressed ou the activated endothelium mediate transient binding to leukocyte ligands that require sequential action of α 2,3-sialyltransferases and a 1,3-fucosyltransferases. LÄS MER
9. Shock wave effects on the vascular endothelium
Sammanfattning : A shock wave is a pressure wave with high amplitude and a velocity above sound. Man is exposed to shock waves (SWs) in connection with trauma, e.g. explosions and high-energy missiles and medical treatments such as extracorporeal lithotripsy (ESWL). LÄS MER
10. The importance of monocyte and granulocyte activation in rheumatoid arthritis and primary Sjögren's syndrome
Sammanfattning : Macrophages and neutrophils infiltrate the synovium and synovial fluid in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). These cells are considered to contribute to the destructive process in RA.The expression of adhesion and phagocytosis receptors on the surface of peripheral granulocytes and monocytes was increased in patients with RA.
