16. Application of ion exchange chromatography to the study of connective tissue glycosaminoglycans
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
17. The Role of Microvascular Pericytes in the Generation of Pro-fibrotic Connective Tissue Cells : Investigations in vitro and in Reactive Tissues in vivo
Sammanfattning : Pericytes are cells of mesenchymal origin located on the abluminal side, juxtapositioned to the endothelial cells in capillaries, venules and small arterioles. They are important for maintaining vessel integrity in resting tissues as well as the formation and stabilization of new vessels. LÄS MER
18. Differentiation of Human Dermal Fibroblasts : a New Tool in Vascular Tissue Engineering
Sammanfattning : Tissue engineering is an expanding field, which focuses on the development of func-tional substitutes for damaged tissues. A limitation in this field is difficulties with obtaining autologous cells. Recent research has shown the presence of cells with multilineage-potential within the connective stroma of the skin.

19. Immune cells in human pharyngeal and palatine tonsils and in the uvula : tissue distribution, cellular composition and functional properties
Sammanfattning : The adenoid (pharyngeal tonsil), the palatine tonsils and the uvula are strategically located at the entrance of the upper airodigestive tract. By virtue of their location they are incessantly exposed to inhaled and ingested antigens. LÄS MER
20. Host Defense Properties of Collagen VI. A novel concept in connective tissue innate immunity
Sammanfattning : Rapid and powerful host defense mechanisms are essential in order to overcome harmful actions of pathogenic bacteria. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and proteins are vital effector molecules of the fast-acting innate immune system and exist virtually in all living organisms. LÄS MER
