1. Eosinophil Inflammation in Allergic Disease : Clinical and experimental studies in allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis
Sammanfattning : Allergic diseases are chronic inflammatory conditions, characterised by eosinophil inflammation systemically and in target organs, where cytotoxic granule proteins are responsible for tissue injury. Allergic rhinitis is known to be a risk factor for the development of asthma, yet not all with rhinitis develop asthma. LÄS MER
2. Preterm birth and allergic disease
Sammanfattning : Allergic diseases are very common in children and young adults, while there is an ongoing interest worldwide in exploring the early origins of these conditions. The perinatal period is considered crucial as it encompasses the maturation of gut microbiota and the establishment of an efficient immunoregulation. LÄS MER
3. On airway host defence during allergic inflammation
Sammanfattning : Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, affecting and disablingapproximately 300 million people worldwide. The inflammatory profile ischaracterized by infiltration of eosinophils, which are a rich source of factors thatare implicated in tissue remodeling. LÄS MER
4. Factors associated with brain tumor risk : with focus on female sex hormones and allergic conditions
Sammanfattning : Every year approximately 1200 people in Sweden are diagnosed with a brain tumor. The two main histological types of brain tumors, gliomas and meningiomas, differ in terms of their localization, histology, prognosis, and probably etiology. LÄS MER
5. Studies on neuroimmune interactions in allergic inflammation with focus on neurotrophins
Sammanfattning : Allergic asthma is a chronic airway disease characterized by an eosinophilic inflammation, bronchoconstriction, increased mucus production and bronchial hyperreactivity. The disease involves several mediators and cell types and is associated with a Th2-mediated immune response. Stress is a factor reported to deteriorate the allergic inflammation. LÄS MER
