6. Cancer Immunotherapy : Evolving Oncolytic viruses and CAR T-cells
Sammanfattning : In the last decade cancer immunotherapy has taken huge strides forward from bench to bedside and being approved as drugs. Cancer immunotherapy harnesses the power of patient’s own immune system to fight cancer. LÄS MER
7. Reduced ROS production triggers arthritis / The role of T cells in arthritis pathogenesis
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to defend a novel mechanism that triggers arthritis susceptibility in both rats and mice through reduced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), but also to introduce a novel model for chronic relapsing arthritis. Five papers are included, all of which employ animal models for rheumatoid arthritis and one that also uses animal models for multiple sclerosis. LÄS MER
8. Chemokine Receptor CCR9: Studies on the Generation and Localization of Gut Tropic Lymphocytes
Sammanfattning : Lymphocytes are important mediators of adaptive immune responses. Naive T lymphocytes circulate in the blood and lymph between different secondary lymphoid organs in search for their specific antigen. LÄS MER
9. Dendritic cells and Plasmodium falciparum: studies in vitro and in the human host
Sammanfattning : Malaria is one of the world’s most threatening diseases. About half the world’s population is at risk of infection and the infection claims a million lives each year. A vast majority of the deaths occur in children below the age of 5 in sub-Saharan Africa. LÄS MER
10. T Regulatory Cells – Friends or Foes?
Sammanfattning : T regulatory cells (Tregs) have been extensively studied in patients with cancer or autoimmunity. These cells hamper the immune system’s ability to clear tumor cells in cancer patients. In autoimmune diseases, on the other hand, they are not able to restrain autoreactive immune responses. LÄS MER
