    Sammanfattning : Graves' disease (GD) is an autoimmune condition with elevated thyroid hormone levels and symptoms suggesting an affected brain. These symptoms often resolve with treatment but, for some patients, GD results in a long period of reduced well-being. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Genetic studies of complex autoimmune disease

    Författare :Alexandra Gyllenberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In complex autoimmune diseases, there are both genetic and environmental factors that influence our immune system and contribute to the development of disease. The pathways, interactions and mode of inheritance are difficult to unravel, and many discoveries are yet to be done. LÄS MER

  4. 18. B cell subsets in autoimmune disease

    Författare :Katrin Habir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : B lymphocytes are a type of white blood cells, belonging to the adaptive arm of the immune system and involved in creating immunological memory. B cells function in the humoral immune system by secreting antibodies which can bind pathogens to prevent them from doing further damage and to help other immune cells to target them. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Multifunctional roles of plasmin in inflammation : Studies of animal models on rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, wound healing and infection

    Författare :Jinan Li; Peter Carmeliet; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Plasmin; complement; inflammation; wound healing; infection; autoimmune disease; non-autoimmune disease; rheumatoid arthritis; multiple sclerosis; tympanic membrane; otitis media; medicinsk biokemi; Medical Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Plasmin has been suggested to be involved in degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and tissue remodeling during a number of physiological and pathological processes. The aims of this thesis were to study the functional roles of plasmin during pathological inflammation in autoimmune and nonautoimmune disease models of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), multiple sclerosis (MS), wound healing and infection.

  7. 20. B cell regulation in autoimmune disease

    Författare :Shan Wang; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Our immune system protects us from both foreign antigens and self-derived autoantigens by sophisticated regulation. During an immune response, the innate and adaptive parts of the immune system closely collaborate at every stage of the response. LÄS MER
