  1. 1. Modulatory role of IL-17 in airway inflammation

    Författare :Elin Silverpil; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Respiratory medicine; Lung; IL-17; IL-23; Macrophages; Neutrophils; T cells; Apoptosis; Phagocytosis; Airways;

    Sammanfattning : IL-17 orchestrates the accumulation of neutrophils to sites of infection and the release of microbicidal substances, and therefore plays a critical role in the innate immune response to infection. IL-17 is also involved in certain chronic inflammatory diseases in which dysfunctional control of neutrophil accumulation and turnover constitutes an important pathogenic factor. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Interleukin-17 in non-allergic airway inflammation

    Författare :Martti Laan; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; IL-17; airway inflammation; bronchial epithelial cells; neutrophils; T-lymphocytes; IL-8; IL-6; MAP kinases.;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic bronchitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchial asthma and cystic fibrosis are common clinical disorders all characterized by airway neutrophilia. By releasing proteolytic enzymes and free oxygen radicals, neutrophils can contribute to the main features of these diseases such as airway obstruction, hypersecretion and remodelling. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Mechanisms of allergic airway inflammation. Role of bone marrow

    Författare :Svetlana Sergejeva; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; asthma; eosinophil; CD34 cell; eosinophilopoiesis; IL-17;

    Sammanfattning : Allergic airway (AW) inflammation is characterized by accumulation of inflammatory cells within the AW. It is likely that the accumulation of cells within AW is a combination of increased production, migration and prolonged survival of the cells. Inflammatory cells develop from CD34+hematopoietic progenitor cells. LÄS MER
