  1. 21. The MUC2 mucin -A network in the intestinal protective mucus

    Författare :Malin E V Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :mucus; Muc2; trimer; proteomics; intestine; colitis; DSS;

    Sammanfattning : The intestine is covered by mucus that is the first line of defence of the epithelium. The main structural component of the intestinal mucus is the MUC2 mucin. This is a large glycoprotein with two long and heavily O-glycosylated mucin domains. LÄS MER

  2. 22. The Drosophila POU/Oct factors: multifaceted proteins

    Författare :Priya Gohel; Ylva Engström; Mariana Wolfner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; POU Oct factors; transcriptional regulation; innate immunity; developmental processes; mitotic spindles; chromosome segregation; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : Dysregulation of physiological and cellular processes underlies various pathological conditions, including cancer and inflammatory disorders. Unraveling the molecular mechanisms driving these processes is crucial. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Immune response of the small intestinal mucosa in children with celiac disease : impact of two environmental factors, resident microbiota and oats

    Författare :Veronika Sjöberg; Marie-Louise Hammarström; Olle Hernell; Katri Kaukinen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Celiac disease; Oats; Microflora; Immune response; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated enteropathy caused by permanent intolerance to dietary gliadin in wheat gluten and related prolamines in barley and rye. The pathogenesis of CD is still unknown and several different environmental factors have been associated with CD, such as dysbiosis of the microflora. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Extrathymic T cell receptor gene rearrangement in human alimentary tract

    Författare :Anna Bas; Marie-Louise Hammarström; Sten Hammarström; Adrian Hayday; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immunology; T cell maturation; recombination activating gene; preTα; human intestinal mucosa; intraepithelial lymphocytes; lamina propria lymphocytes; nasopharyngeal tonsil; Immunologi; Immunology; Immunologi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : T lymphocytes regulate the initiation, duration, and magnitude of adaptive immune responses and function as effector cells in cell mediated immunity. To become immunologically competent they must generate functional antigen receptors. This process takes place in the thymus and requires somatic recombination of T cell receptor (TCR) genes. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Vibrio cholerae modulates the immune defense of human gut mucosa

    Författare :Aziz Bitar; Marie-Louise Hammarström; Sun Nynt Wai; Mikael Rehn; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vibrio cholerae; intestinal epithelial cell; duodenum biopsy; acute cholera; immunomodulation; microRNA; OMV; cytokine; T84 monolayer; miR-146; miR-155; VCC; PrtV; hemolysis; IL-8; TNF-a; IL-1b; IL-18; CCL20; IRAK2; inflammation; mikrobiologi; Microbiology; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : The key function of innate immunity is to sense danger signals and initiate effective responses as a defense mechanism against pathogens. Simultaneously, effector responses must be regulated to avoid excessive inflammation with resulting tissue damage. LÄS MER
