1. Developing a Porcine Model to Study the Glymphatic System
Sammanfattning : The glymphatic system is a brain-wide solute clearance system that has developed in the brain to clear metabolic waste during sleep. This clearance is mediated by advective fluxes of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) along perivascular spaces (PVS) and through the brain. LÄS MER
2. Methods to study glymphatic system in the rodent brain during physiological and pathological processes
Sammanfattning : Over the past decade, our understanding of brain-waste clearance underwent a revolution after the discovery of the so-called glymphatic system. The glia-lymphatic (abbreviated, glymphatic) system was first described in 2012 as a paravascular macrosystem involved in the distribution of nutrients and clearance of metabolic waste from the brain parenchyma.

3. Unraveling the immune response in sepsis and meningitis. Diagnostic and therapeutic approaches
Sammanfattning : Severe infections continue to constitute a large burden, with high mortality and risk of sequelae. Sepsis is a dysregulated host response to an infection that causes life threatening organ damage. Meningitis is a severe infection of the brain that often leads to sepsis and death or lasting neurological damage. LÄS MER
4. Mechanisms for pneumococcal meningitis and a new vaccine platform to raise a serotype-independent protection in the host
Sammanfattning : Streptococcus pneumoniae is a highly relevant pathogenic bacterium, responsible for a large fraction of deaths and disease morbidity in the world. The pneumococcus remains the leading cause of life-threatening pneumonia, septicemia and meningitis beyond neonatal age, despite global implementation of vaccination programs. LÄS MER
