  1. 6. On the role of PGD2 metabolites as markers of mast cell activation in asthma

    Författare :Siobhán O'Sullivan; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) is the major cyclooxygenase metabolite of arachidonic acid released after stimulation of mast cells. Prostaglandin D2, itself is a very unstable compound, therefore, quantitative determination of PGD2 is an unreliable indicator of its own endogenous production. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Mast cell activation in response to osmotic and immunological stimulation with focus on release of eicosanoid mediators

    Författare :Magdalena Gulliksson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction; cyclooxygenase; cord blood derived mast cells; mannitol; prostaglandin D2; leukotriene C4; leukotriene E4; histamine and 15-lipoxygenase.;

    Sammanfattning : Mast cells are important in asthma and other inflammatory diseases. Subjects with asthma have been found to have an increased number of mast cells in their airway smooth muscle and this was related to airway sensitivity. LÄS MER
