1. Bacterial Regulation of Peripheral Immunity : Mechanistic insights from lactobacilli and Staphylococcus aureus
Sammanfattning : There is a constant cross-talk between our immune system and the colonizing microbiota. The gut resident bacteria produce a broad range of molecules with regulatory activities in both local and distal tissues. Staphylococcus (S. LÄS MER
2. Early events in T cell development
Sammanfattning : T cells constitute a heterogenous population of lymphocytes. Their unifying property is that they express surface bound antigen-receptors, called T cell receptors (TCRs). The TCR is a heterodimer composed of either TCRalpha and beta chain proteins (alphabeta TCR) or gamma and delta chain proteins (gammadelta TCR). LÄS MER
3. Expansion of circulatory Vγ9Vδ2 T cells in tularemia and Pontiac fever, two intracellular bacterial diseases with widely different clinical expression
Sammanfattning : Although well established that human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells may expand in circulation during intracellular bacterial infections, most underlying studies included only a few cases and only some diseases had been studied so far. In tularemia, a severe invasive disease, only one patient had been described. LÄS MER
4. Characterization of human gamma delta T cells in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Sammanfattning : Over the last five decades, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has evolved rapidly, continuing to offer a cure for several hematological diseases. Nevertheless, associated life-threatening complications remain an obstacle against exploiting its full therapeutic benefit. LÄS MER
5. Functional studies of T-cells in rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic inflammatory disease with autoimmune features primarily affecting the joints. The etiology of RA is largely unknown but involvement of the immune system in the disease process is evident from the infiltration of leukocytes into the joint, and by the production of proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines and proteases, mainly by macrophages.
