1. 1. Human intestinal T lymphocytes : a comparative analysis of phenotype and function in normal and inflamed mucosa

   Författare :Silvia Melgar; Nadine Cerf-Bensussan; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; human intestinal mucosa; intraepithelial lymphocyte; lamina propria lymphocyte; γδ T cell; regulatory T cell; cytotoxicity; cytokine; basal lymphoid aggregate; ulcerative colitis; Crohn s disease;

   Sammanfattning : The epithelial lining of the gut must allow immediate contact with beneficial components as nutrients and normal microflora. At the same time it runs the constant risk of attack from pathogenic microbes and noxious agents. LÄS MER

3. 2. T-cells in COPD to help or harm? A study of T-cells in COPD patients and related aspects of T-cell function in vitro

   Sammanfattning : Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, COPD, is manifested by chronic airflow limitation due to inflammation and tissue destruction in the lungs. COPD is caused primarily by smoking and with increasing cigarette consumption in the world, the prevalence for COPD will most probably increase in the future. LÄS MER

4. 3. Regulation of cytotoxic lymphocyte effector functions

   Författare :Giovanna Perinetti Casoni; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Studies of patients with inborn errors of immunity provide an important opportunity to understand the human immune system in a natural context. The articles in this thesis are a compilation of such investigations. LÄS MER

5. 4. The Multiple Faces of Genetically-Modified T Cells : Potential Applications in Therapy
