  1. 1. Maternal immune characteristics and innate immune responses in the child in relation to allergic disease

    Författare :Petra Amoudruz; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Zsolt Szépfalusi; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : The mechanistic factors responsible for the increase in allergic diseases are still not fully understood, but a reduced microbial stimulation seems to be one of the key issues. Research is now aiming at investigating the relationship between the innate immune system, involving the toll-like receptors, and allergy development. LÄS MER

  2. 2. The role of natural killer cells and inflammatory mediators in preeclamptic pregnancies

    Författare :Nora Bachmayer; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Katarina Bremme; Lucia Mincheva-Nilsson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; preeclampsia; NK cells; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : The maternal immune system must be able to adjust during pregnancy and accept the foetus that expresses paternal antigens. These changes are found both in placenta and circulation, including a mild inflammatory response. NK cells are abundant during the early part of pregnancy in placenta and are thought to be important for placental development. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Immune maturation and lymphocyte characteristics in relation to early gut bacteria exposure

    Författare :Sophia Björkander; Eva Sverremark Ekström; Hanne Frøkiær; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Allergy; cell-free supernatant; chemokines; colonization; cytokines; FOXP3; immune-maturation; lactobacilli; lymphocytes; NK-cells; Staphylococcus aureus; unconventional T-cells; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : At birth, the immune system is immature and the gut microbiota influences immune maturation. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and lactobacilli are part of the neonatal gut microbiota and have seemingly opposite effects on the immune system. S. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Local Immune regulation in human pregnancy : with focus on decidual macrophages

    Författare :Charlotte Gustafsson Lidström; Christina Ekerfelt; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; reproduction; placenta; leukocyte; ELISPOT; Clinical immunology; Klinisk immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : During pregnancy, the woman carries a fetus partly foreign to her immune system, because of the expression of paternal antigens. Despite this, the fetus is normally tolerated and not rejected, as is often the case with organs in allogeneic transplantations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Lactobacilli- and Staphylococcus aureus mediated modulation of immune responses in vitro

    Författare :Yeneneh Haileselassie; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Huub Savelkoul; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lactobacilli; staphylococcus aureus; dendritic cells; retinoic acid; epithelial cells; T cells; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : The human gut harbors a vast number of microbes. These microbes are not passive bystanders. They are important in modulating the immune system. We have previously shown that early colonization with lactobacilli and Staphylococcus (S. LÄS MER
