  1. 36. Exploring immune cell functions and ways to make use of them

    Författare :Evelina Vågesjö; Mia Phillipson; Michael Hickey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :leukocytes; neutrophils; macrophages; regulatory T cells; chemokines; VEGF-A; hypoxia; ischemia; muscle; Islets of Langerhans; diabetes; transplantation; wound healing;

    Sammanfattning : In addition to host defense, alternative functions of immune cells are emerging. Immune cells are crucial during healing of injured tissue, in formation of new blood vessels, angiogenesis, and also in maintaining the balance in inflammation having immune regulating functions.

  2. 37. Adhesive and signaling mechanisms in abdominal sepsis

    Författare :Su Zhang; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; abdominal sepsis; lung; infection; neutrophil; chemokines; T-cells; HMG-CoA reductase; NFAT;

    Sammanfattning : Sepsis is a major cause of mortality in intensive care units despite decades of scientific efforts. The lung is recognized as the most sensitive and critical organ affected by the hyper-inflammatory response in septic patients. Immune cell dysfunction develops in later phases of sepsis making patients susceptible to infections. LÄS MER

  3. 38. The Role of Chemokines in Mast Cell Migration

    Författare :Mikael Juremalm; Timothy J. Williams; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; Mast cells; chemotaxis; calcium flux; chemokines and chemokine receptors; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi; Pathology; patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Mast cells are very potent multifunctional effector cells of the immune system normally distributed throughout connective tissues. An accumulation of mast cells has been described in several pathological conditions such as allergic- and autoimmune inflammations and in certain tumours. LÄS MER

  4. 39. Chemokines and their role in dopaminergic development

    Författare :Linda C Edman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The main pathological hallmark in Parkinson s disease (PD) is the progressive loss of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra (SN), affecting movements such as walking, talking and writing. Today, there is no cure available for PD and existing treatments only provide symptomatic relief, but the prospect of using stem cell based cell replacement therapies for patients with PD have provided new optimism.

  5. 40. Chemokines and chemokine receptors during viral infections in man

    Författare :Frida Mowafi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :B cells; Chemokine receptors; Chemokines; HIV-1; EBV;

    Sammanfattning : Chemokines and chemokine receptors are critical mediators of cell migration during immune surveillance, inflammation and development. The generation of antibody responses depends on B and T cell collaboration within germinal centers in lymphoid tissue. LÄS MER
