1. The role of bacterial endotoxin in the immature brain
Sammanfattning : Aim: Epidemiological evidence suggests that infections may increase the vulnerability of the immature brain to further insults. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the role of bacterial endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS) on hypoxic-ischemic (HI) injury in the immature rat brain, and to evaluate possible underlying mechanisms of increased sensitivity. LÄS MER
2. Inflammation and neuroprotective strategies in the immature brain after hypoxic-ischemic brain injury
Sammanfattning : Perinatal brain injury, as a result of hypoxia-ischemia (HI) or infection/HI, is a major cause of acute mortality and neurological morbidity in infants and children. The mechanisms of perinatal HI are not fully understood, which makes it difficult to find effective treatment. LÄS MER
3. Very preterm infants and later lung function - impact of perinatal inflammation, club cell secretory protein and bronchopulmonary dysplasia
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
4. Inflammation in the immature brain: The role of Toll like receptors
Sammanfattning : Infection/inflammation and/or hypoxia-ischemia (HI) are major causes of perinatal brain injury. Toll-like receptors (TLRs), important components of innate immunity, have been shown to be involved in brain injury, both after infectious and endogenous, non-infectious, stimuli. LÄS MER
