16. Interactions between nutrition, obesity and the immune system
Sammanfattning : There are several links between body fat and the immune system. For example, mice lacking activity of the pro-inflammatory interleukin-(IL)-1 and IL-6 develop obesity. Conversely, obesity is associated with adipose tissue inflammation and increased risk of infection. LÄS MER
17. Immunologic aspects of the pathogenesis of human onchocerciasis
Sammanfattning : Onchocerciasis, or river blindness, is a parasitic disease that affects more than 20 million people globally. The induction of pathology is directly related to the presence and destruction of the microfilarial stages (mf) of this filarial nematode. LÄS MER
18. The effects of flaxseed and tamoxifen on the inflammatory microenvironment in normal breast tissue and in breast cancer
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women worldwide today. Nearly 9000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in Sweden yearly and despite advantages in diagnostics and treatments approximately 1400 women still die from their disease every year. LÄS MER
19. Immunological properties of dendritic cells in HIV-1 infection
Sammanfattning : Dendritic cells (DCs) capture antigens for intracellular processing to form MHC-peptide complexes involved in the generation of antigen specific T cell responses. After encountering microbes, DCs migrate from the periphery to the regional lymph nodes. LÄS MER
20. Intracellular regulation of TLR signaling Basic mechanisms and importance in intestinal inflammation
Sammanfattning : Toll-like receptors (TLRs) recognize conserved structures on/in microorganisms. The intracellular signalling pathways of TLRs are shared with IL-1R and IL-18R and their activation leads to transcription of proinflammatory cytokines and type-I interferons. LÄS MER
