  1. 16. Dendritic cell migration to draining lymph node and T-cell priming to Bacille Calmette-Guérin

    Författare :Vishnu Priya Bollampalli; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Dendritic cells (DCs) are unique antigen presenting cells that bridge innate and adaptive immunity. DCs sense invading microbes, sample antigen and migrate to the draining lymph node (DLN) where they prime T cells to the microbe. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Compartmentalisation of the immune response in human skin : cross-talk between dendritic cells and T cells in healthy conditions and in psoriasis

    Författare :Elisa Martini; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Human skin is highly compartmentalised and distinct subsets of dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells reside in epidermis and dermis. Alterations in the composition of DCs and T cells have been observed in psoriasis, a common cytokine-driven focal inflammatory skin disease. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Tolerance and Immunity: Opposite Outcomes of Microbial Antigen Stimulation

    Författare :Lena Eroukhmanoff; Immunologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TLR2; Tolerance; quinoline-3-carboxamide; Anergy; Foxp3; iNOS; IFN-β; CD4 splenic DCs;

    Sammanfattning : The immune system is remarkable in many ways. It exerts immunity to defend us from foreign pathogens, while it is also responsible for maintaining tolerance to avoid autoimmune diseases and allergy. This thesis includes three separate papers concerning both tolerance and immunity. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Glycan-based interactions of Streptococcus pneumoniae and the host

    Författare :Karina Hentrich; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Streptococcus pneumoniae is commonly found as an asymptomatic colonizer of the nasopharynx of children, but it can also translocate to normally sterile body sites and cause severe diseases, like pneumonia, septicemia or meningitis. Pneumococci spread via aerosols. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Chemokine Receptor CCR9: Studies on the Generation and Localization of Gut Tropic Lymphocytes

    Författare :Marcus Svensson Frej; Immunologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; small intestine; transplantation; serologi; CCR9; CCL25; chemokines; lymphocyte homing; Immunology; serology; Immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : Lymphocytes are important mediators of adaptive immune responses. Naive T lymphocytes circulate in the blood and lymph between different secondary lymphoid organs in search for their specific antigen. LÄS MER
