  1. 11. Phenotypic and functional studies of NK cells in neonates and during early childhood

    Författare :Yvonne Sundström; Marita Troye-Blomberg; Louise Berg; Eleanor Riley; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : During infancy, before adaptive immunity has matured, innate immunity is thought to be relatively more important. Human natural killer (NK) cells are innate immune cells involved in the control of virus-infected cells and can influence adaptive immunity mainly through cytokine production. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : More than a century after the identification of the tubercle bacillus and the first attempts at vaccination, tuberculosis (TB) still remains one of the world’s most serious infectious diseases. TB, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is typically a disease of the lung, which serves both as port of entry and as the major site of disease manifestation. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Human genetic factors involved in immunity to Plasmodium falciparum infection

    Sammanfattning : This study investigated the associations between IL-4 -590 C/T and IL-10 -1087 A/G polymorphisms and malariometric indexes in the Fulani and the Dogon ethnic groups living in sympatry in Mali and differing in susceptibility to malaria. The correlations between antibodies level and parasitological data as well as splenomegaly were assessed. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Type 1A diabetes mellitus or T1D is a chronic disease characterized by T cell mediated destruction of the insulin producing β cells in the islets of Langerhans. The classical symptoms include high glucose levels in urine and blood, polyuria, and polydipsia. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Experimental radioimmunotherapy and effector mechanisms

    Författare :David Eriksson; Torgny Stigbrand; Eva Forsell-Aronsson; Umeå universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Radioimmunotherapy is becoming important as a new therapeutic strategy for treatment of tumour diseases. Lately monoclonal antibodies tagged with radionuclides have demonstrated encouraging results in treatment of hematological malignancies. The progress in treatment of solid tumours using radioimmunotherapy, however, has been slow. LÄS MER
