    Författare :Natalja Jackmann; Per Frisk; Outi Mäkitie; Jan Gustafsson; Anna Sällfors Holmqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; vitamin D; pediatric cancer; leukemia; bone marrow failure; hCAP-18; bone turnover markers; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Children with hemato-oncological diseases may have significant skeletal morbidities. Vitamin D is essential for the maintenance of skeletal health and may also be important for immunological functions and cancer outcomes. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The human antimicrobial peptide hCAP18 in epithelial defense

    Författare :Margareta Frohm Nilsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Innate immunity; host defense; antimicrobial peptide; hCAP 18; LL-37; epithelia; wounds; breast cancer;

    Sammanfattning : Gene-encoded antimicrobial peptides serve a protective role in host defense. They are multifunctional effector molecules in innate immunity - the nonadaptive immune system -with the capacity to kill a broad spectrum of microorganisms. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Sorting and processing of neutrophil granule proteins

    Författare :Elinor Bülow; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; secretion; Haematology; extracellular fluids; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor; cell-specific retention; chimeric; lysosome-related organelles; secretory pathway; propeptide of MPO; azurophil granules;

    Sammanfattning : The neutrophil granulocytes have a critical role in innate immunity in particular through phagocytosis of microorganisms. Their cytoplasmic granule subsets store digestive enzymes and antibiotic proteins that are released during this event. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Oral mucositis and periodontal disease in patients with primary or acquired immunodeficiencies

    Författare :Ying Ye; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The infection and inflammation in the oral cavity are commonly related to the skewed interaction between host immunity and inhabiting microorganisms. Both primary and acquired immunodeficiency conditions are frequently associated with oral symptoms. LÄS MER
