  1. 21. Biomarkers and surgical predictors in temporomandibular joint disease

    Författare :Mattias Ulmner; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc displacement (DD) is associated with pain and impaired function and has two main sub-diagnoses, DD with or without reduction (DDwR/DDwoR). DD synovial tissue has been sparsely investigated, and further characterisation is needed. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Systemic inflammatory activation during cardiac Surgery. Influence of cardiopulmonary bypass management and patient factors

    Författare :Martin Westerberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :cardiopulmonary bypass; inflammatory response; coagulation; CABG; cardiotomy suction; cytokines;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass is accompanied by a prominent systemic inflammatory and hemostatic activation, which may contribute to postoperative complications. Aims: To investigate if selection of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) system and management of cardiotomy suction (CTS) and mediastinal shed blood (MSB) affect systemic inflammatory response. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Regulatory networks of c-di-GMP signalling involved in biofilm formation, motility and host pathogen interactions in Salmonella typhimurium

    Författare :Irfan Ahmad; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Adaptation to altered environmental conditions is one of the fundamental bacterial characteristics. The ubiquitous second messenger c-di-GMP plays a key role to adopt bacterial behaviour. Transition from motility to sessility and from acute infection to chronic infection is regulated by c-di-GMP signalling in many bacteria. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Pro- and anti-inflammatory regulation of β2 integrin signalling in human neutrophils

    Författare :Veronika Brodin Patcha; Eva Särndahl; Emmanuelle Caron; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; inflammation; neutrophils; signalling; integrins; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The body is under constant attack from pathogens trying to slip by our immune defence. If the barrier is breached, invading pathogens enter the tissues and cause inflammation. During this process neutrophils, constituting the first line of defence, leave the bloodstream and seek out and kill the invading pathogens. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Studies on the regulation of leukotriene biosynthesis in antigen presenting cells

    Författare :Julia Esser; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Leukotrienes (LTs) are pro-inflammatory lipid mediators with important roles in host de- fense and inflammatory disease. Leukotriene B4 (LTB4) is a potent chemoattractant for neutrophils and contributes to bacterial killing, while the cysteinyl leukotrienes (LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4) elicit increased vascular permeability, bronchoconstriction, eosinophil trafficking and mucus secretion.
