  1. 21. Histamine receptors and neuropeptides in the cranial circulation

    Författare :Anders Ottosson; Rättsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurophysiology; neuropsychology; Neurology; Human - arteries - CGRP - SP - mast cells; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The sensory neuropeptides substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) are present in human cerebral, meningeal and temporal arteries, as are peptides associated with the sympathetic (neuropeptide Y, NPY) and parasympathetic (vasoactive intestinal peptide, VIP) nervous system. NPY is a vasoconstrictor in cerebral and meningeal arteries and potentiates noradrenaline (NA) as a vasoconstrictor in temporal arteries. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Redox reactions in cancer: impact and regulation

    Författare :Hanna Grauers Wiktorin; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cancer; Immunotherapy; reactive oxygen species; NOX2; histamine dihydrochloride; myeloid-derived suppressor cells; checkpoint inhibition; acute myeloid leukemia; chronic myeloid leukemia;

    Sammanfattning : The reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction involves a change in the oxidation state of molecules where a molecule that donates an electron is oxidized and a molecule that accepts an electron is reduced. The NADPH oxidase of myeloid cells, NOX2, is a major source of oxidants in the form of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are short-lived oxygen derivatives. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Immunotherapy and immunosuppression in myeloid leukemia

    Författare :Alexander Hallner; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Natural killer cells; acute myeloid leukemia; histamine dihydrochloride; immunotherapy; reactive oxygen species; chronic myelomonocytic leukemia; NK cell education; NKG2A; HLA; KIR;

    Sammanfattning : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) are potentially life-threatening blood cancers characterized by the expansion of malignant myeloid cells in bone marrow and other organs. This thesis aimed at contributing to the understanding of the role of natural killer (NK) cells in AML and CMML with focus on the potential impact of the immunosuppression exerted by reactive oxygen species (ROS) formed by the myeloid cell NOX2 enzyme.

  4. 24. Targeting residual malignant cells in myeloid leukemia

    Författare :Malin Nilsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; acute myeloid leukemia; chronic myeloid leukemia; histamine dihydrochloride; hydroxyurea; leukemic stem cells;

    Sammanfattning : Malignant cells persisting during treatment prevent cure in many patients with myeloid leukemia. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the failure to eradicate the leukemic clone during conventional chemotherapy is associated with leukemic relapse, mostly with dismal survival outcome. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Mediator synergism in mast celldependent inflammation : role of histamine for leukocyte recruitment

    Författare :Henrik Thorlacius; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Chemoattractants; dexamethasone; histamine; inflammation; intravital microscopy; mast cells; leukocyte adhesion; leukocyte rolling; microcirculation; mast cells; nitric oxide; leukotrienes; P-selectin.;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of the present thesis was to study functional interactions between histamine and chemotactic mediators, and the role of histamine for leukocyte recruitment in mast cell-dependent inflammation. Leukocyte rolling, adhesion and emigration. LÄS MER
