16. Matrix metalloproteases and cell motility in malignant mesothelioma
Sammanfattning : Invasion and metastasis of malignant tumor cells requires destruction of and migration through extracellular matrix (ECM) such as basement membrane and interstitial stroma. The ECM-degrading proteases produced by tumor cells and stromal cells and cell motility play a crucial role in this process. LÄS MER
17. Pain and radiographic changes of the arthritic temporomandibular joint : relation to cytokines in synovial fluid and plasma
Sammanfattning : In patients with rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory joint diseases, radiographic changes of the TMJ are frequently observed. Common symptoms of TMJ involvement are pain at rest and on movement of the jaw. LÄS MER
18. Studies on uptake and effect of triclosan on production of inflammatory mediators in human gingival fibroblasts
Sammanfattning : Triclosan (2,4,4'-trichloro-2'-hydroxy-diphenyl ether) is a lipid soluble anti-bacterial agent widely used in dentifrices, mouthrinses, soap and cosmetics. Although reports on the efficacy of triclosan on periodontal diseases are conflicting, it is documented in clinical studies that dentifrices containing triclosan reduce plaque accumulation and improve gingival health.

19. Mechanisms influencing activation and survival of normal and malignant lymphoid cells in the testis
Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common childhood malignancy and the testis is the third most common site of relapse after treatment. Testicular function is regulated by pituitary hormones, but the testicular microenvironment is also locally regulated through cell-cell interactions and by paracrine factors. LÄS MER
20. Cytokines and cytokine-directed intervention in experimental arthritis
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic autoimmune and inflammatory disease. Although the etiology of RA remains unknown, a general understanding of the pathogenesis is steadily increasing. The macrophage products tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin 1 (IL-1) are recognized as pivotal mediators in the arthritic process. LÄS MER
