1. Studies of Thai blood group and platelet polymorphism. Implications for malaria susceptibility
Sammanfattning : The objectives of the thesis were to seek a better understanding of polymorphic RBC surface molecules in the Thai, and to investigate the role of certain blood groups in malarial invasion. MALDI-TOF MS was employed in Study I as an efficient method for genotyping to establish the common blood group and platelet antigen genotypes of 396 blood donors. LÄS MER
2. Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia : immunological mechanisms and clinical consequences
Sammanfattning : Fetal and neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (FNAIT) is a rare condition that may occur in connection with pregnancy, when maternal antibodies directed against paternally inherited platelet antigens cross the placenta and mediate thrombocytopenia in the fetus and neonate. FNAIT puts the fetus at risk of severe bleedings, with an intracranial hemorrhage being the most feared outcome. LÄS MER
3. Regulatory Immune Responses and Repair Mechanisms in Atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the formation of lipid rich plaques in the arterial wall. Rupture of a plaque results in clinical manifestations such myocardial infarction or stroke. LÄS MER
4. Targeting innate and adaptive immune responses to achieve long-term allograft acceptance following transplantation
Sammanfattning : Organ transplantation outcomes have gradually improved over the last 50 years. The development of more effective immunosuppressive drugs has been a major contributor to this improvement. LÄS MER
