  1. 21. On the regulation of immune responses to dietary and self antigens

    Författare :Susanne Lindgren; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Tolerance; regulatory T cells; self antigens; oral tolerance; dietary antigens; intestinal epithelial cells; exosomes; Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin A;

    Sammanfattning : Regulatory mechanisms are necessary to avoid the misdirected aggressive immune responses responsible for the pathology seen in autoimmunity and allergy. Thymic-derived CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells are indispensible for this regulation. We investigated if CD4+CD25+ Treg prevents auto-reactive responses in adult peripheral blood and cord blood.

  3. 22. Effects of Th-1 and Th-2 Cytokines and Reactive Oxygen Species on Normal Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells

    Författare :Caroline Kampf; Benjamin Gaston; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; ytokines; desmosomes; focal adhesions; free radicals; hypochlorous acid; nitric oxide; normal human bronchial epithelial cells; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; medicinsk cellbiologi; Medical Cell Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Epithelial damage and shedding of the epithelium are common observations in many airway diseases such as asthma, Sjögren’s syndrome, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cystic fibrosis. The ability of the cells to attach to each other and/or to the matrix seems to be altered. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Reciprocal regulation of endocytosis and signaling in Drosophila epithelial development and aberrant growth

    Författare :Dan Liu; Christos Samakovlis; Vasilios Tsarouhas; Héctor Herranz; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; endocytosis; protein sorting; RTK signaling; airway maturation; tumor-suppressive cell competition; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Sammanfattning : Endocytosis and subsequent endosomal sorting of plasma membrane proteins and nutrients are essential for cellular homeostasis. Previous work has uncovered several different internalization mechanisms, endosomal sorting routes and aspects of their regulation. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Mast Cell-Mediated Orchestration of Airway Epithelial Responses in Chronic Respiratory Diseases

    Författare :Frida Berlin; Respiratorisk cellbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mast cell; Tryptase; Chymase; Bronchial epithelium; Respiratory diseases;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic respiratory diseases, such as asthma, are an increasing health issue worldwide and cause about 3.9 million deaths annually. Despite this, little is know about the molecular mechanisms underpinning disease pathogenesis. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Studies on Airway Surface Liquid in Connection with Cystic Fibrosis

    Författare :Inna Kozlova; Godfried Roomans; Anca Dragomir; Marieann Högman; Isabelle Sermet-Gaudelus; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cystic fibrosis; CFTR; airway surface liquid; ion content; anesthesia; mist tent therapy; Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Cystic fibrosis (CF) is one of the most common fatal inherited diseases, most prevalent among Caucasians. CF is caused by a mutation in the gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), which helps to create sweat, digestive juices, and airway surface liquid (ASL).
