  1. 6. Innate and acquired immunity to commensal bacteria

    Författare :Christina Hessle; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The innate immune system recognises molecular patterns shared by large groups of micro-organisms. Monocytes and macrophages respond to microbes by production of substances which act in concert to promote effective clearance of bacteria. LÄS MER

  3. 7. THE INFLUENCE OF LACTOBACILLI AND STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS ON IMMUNE RESPONSIVENESS IN VITRO

    Författare :Yeneneh Haileselassie; Eva Sverremark-Ekström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cytokine; T cells; immune response; HT-29; Intestinal epithelial cells; Lactobacillus; Staphylococcus aureus; bacteria and infants; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : Alteration of gut microbiota has been associated with development of immune mediated diseases, such as allergy. In part, this could be due to the influence of microbes in shaping the immune response. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Staphylococcus aureus in the infantile bowel flora

    Författare :Erika Lindberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Staphylococcus aureus; intestinal; microflora; superantigen; RAPD; bacteria; infants;

    Sammanfattning : The increasingly hygienic life-style in Western societies may not only have reduced infections, but may also have altered the composition of the commensal microflora, which may, in turn, have predisposed to e.g. allergy development. Here we investigated the first year s intestinal colonization pattern of a Swedish birth-cohort. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Microbiota of the alimentary tract of children - implications for allergy and inflammatory bowel disease

    Författare :Fei Sjöberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gut flora; child; oral flora; allergy; duodenum; inflammatory bowel disease; culture; T-RFLP; pyrosequencing;

    Sammanfattning : Allergy, which is the most common chronic disease in Swedish children and adolescents, is associated with a high standard of living and Western lifestyle. According to the hygiene hypothesis, allergy is due to inadequate stimulation of the immune system by microbes during early childhood, leading to failed maturation of the immune system. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Bacterial colonization of the neonatal bowel and ileal pouch with focus on E. coli

    Författare :Anna Östblom; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; E. coli; persistens; intestinal microbiota; colonization; ileal pouch; persistence; virulence factor genes;

    Sammanfattning : The colonic microbiota is a source of inflammatogenic and potentially pathogenic bacteria, but also a source of immune maturation signals to the infant. Here, we have investigated the normal colonic microbiota, with focus on E. coli in Swedish and Pakistani newborn infants, as well as the microbiota of the ileo-anal pouch in colectomized patients.
