  1. 21. Cytokine-induced beta-cell apoptosis and its regulation by SOCS-1 and imidazoline compounds

    Författare :Irina Zaitseva; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A selective destruction of pancreatic β-cells as a consequence of inflammation in the islets of Langerhans is a feature of type 1 diabetes. Pro-inflammatory cytokines secreted by T lymphocytes and macrophages infiltrating the pancreatic islets participate in the development of this autoimmune disease by acting directly on the β-cell.

    Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease with systemic inflammatory features that primarily affects small peripheral joints. Type II collagen (CII), is the most abundant collagen type in joint cartilage. Antibodies against CII (anti-CII) are found in a subpopulation of RA patients. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Regulation of cytokine-induced nitric oxide production in insulin-producing cells

    Författare :Malin Flodström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; Diabetes; pancreatic islets; insulin-producing cells; cytokines; nitric oxide; inducible nitric oxide synthase; nuclear factor-kappaB; interferon regulatory factor-1; arginine; citrulline; argininosuccinate synthetase; insulin release; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; medicinsk cellbiologi; Medical Cell Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Cytokine-induced expression of the inducible form of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and production of nitric oxide (NO) may contribute to pancreatic β-cell damage during the development of type 1 diabetes. iNOS catalyses the conversion of arginine into citrulline and NO, a reaction regulated by the amount of expressed iNOS enzyme and by the cellular availability of arginine.

  5. 25. Monocyte and Neutrophil Inflammatory Responses to the Periodontopathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis

    Författare :Kartheyaene Jayaprakash; Torbjörn Bengtsson; Allan Sirsjö; Hazem Khalaf; Anders Johansson; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Monocytes; Neutrophils; Porphyromonas gingivalis; Gingipains; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    Sammanfattning : Periodontitis is one of the most common adult infections. Duing bacteremia in healthy individuals or patients with chronic periodontitis, a number of oral bacteria such as Porphyromonas gingivalis encounter inflammatory cells in the blood eg. platelets, neutrophils and monocytes.
