  1. 1. Oral lichen planus : studies of factors involved in differentiation, epithelial mesenchymal transition and inflammation

    Författare :Karin Danielsson; Karin Nylander; Ylva Britt Wahlin; Linda Boldrup; Jesper Reibel; Umeå universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Background: Lichen planus is a chronic inflammation of skin and mucosa with unknown cause. Oral Lichen Planus, OLP, affects around 2% of the population. Autoimmunity has been suggested as a possible cause as the disease has autoimmune features such as female predominance, cyclic nature and cytotoxic T-cell infiltrate. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Oral contact allergy to carvone : with a focus on oral lichen

    Författare :Liv Kroona; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Avhandlingen undersöker karvon (l-karvon), ett mintsmakandearomämne, och hur kontaktallergi mot karvon yttrar sig. Karvonfinns framför allt i grönmynta/spearmint, men aromämnet kan ävenframställas ur limonen, ett citrondoftande parfymämne. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Potentially Malignant Disorders and Oral cancer -A study on Immunosurveillance

    Författare :Jenny Öhman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oral lichen planus; Leukoplakia; Oral cancer; Immunosurveillance; Solid organ transplantation; T cells; Langerhans cells;

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT The cancer immunosurveillance hypothesis postulates that the immune system can recognize cancer cell precursors and destroy those cells before a clinical manifestation occurs. During the last decades several groups have presented evidence of the influence and role of immune activation in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients; however, much less is known about the role of immune activation in potentially malignant oral disorders (PMOD).

  5. 4. Human Papilloma Virus, Epstein-Barr Virus, and Herpes Simplex Virus Type-1 in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinomas from Three Populations

    Sammanfattning : Most oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is believed to develop via a multistep process of cumulative gene damage in epithelial cells. Increasing incidence of OSCC and evidence that traditional risk factors may not be responsible directed us to investigate the prevalence of virus in pre- and malignant samples. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies of p63 and p63 related proteins in patients diagnosed with oral lichen planus

    Författare :Majid Ebrahimi; Karin Nylander; Isaac Van der waal; Umeå universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa and also one of the more common mucosal conditions mostly affecting middle aged individuals. Even though OLP is well investigated the etiology of this disease is still unknown, even if autoimmunity as a possible etiologic factor has been suggested. LÄS MER
