  2. 2. Circulating immune complexes in atherosclerotic vascular disease

    Författare :Awder Mustafa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :circulating immune complexes; autoantibodies; lipoproteins; cardiolipin; oxidized LDL; atherosclerosis; myocardial infarction; food proteins; complement factor C4.;

    Sammanfattning : We have investigated the association of the humoral immune factors circulating immune complexes (CICs) and autoantibodies against cardiolipin (aCL) and oxidatively modified LDL (oxLDL) to atherosclerotic vascular diseases. In a prospective nested case-control study, in which healthy 50-year-old men were followed for 20 years, the prevalence of elevated CICs and the concentration of CICs were higher in men who developed myocardial infarction.

  3. 3. Fcγ Receptors in the Immune Response

    Författare :Teresita Díaz de Ståhl; Jan van de Winkel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Fc Receptors; IgG Receptors; IgE Receptors; Immune regulation; In vivo animal models; Mouse; Rh prophylaxis; Rheumatoid arthritis; Transgenic knockout; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Pathology; patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Circulating immune complexes play an important role in the modulation of antibody responses and in the pathogenesis of immune diseases. This thesis deals with the in vivo regulatory properties of antibodies and their specific Fc receptors. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Elimination of circulation IgA and IgS immune complexes : An experimental study in mice, rats and guinea pigs

    Författare :Anders Johansson; Ann Kari Lefvert; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Immune complexes were formed between dinitrophenyl- (DNP-) conjugated human serum albumin (HSA) and anti-DNP antibodies (monoclonal mouse IgA or polyclonal rabbit IgG). Blood clearance and tissue distribution of intravenously injected labelled antigen and immunecomplex preparations were studied in mice, rats and guinea pigs. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Mast cells: bad enemies or good friends? : A study of the effects of IgG immune complexes on mast cell biology

    Författare :Lisa M Larsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Mast cell; Fc receptor; Apoptosis; Immune complex; Adjuvant; CTA1-DD.;

    Sammanfattning : Mast cells are classically defined as bad enemies to human health due to their critical involvement in IgE-dependent allergy by virtue of the expression of the high affinity IgE receptor, FcgammaRI, on these cells. However, mouse mast cells also express FcgammaRIIB and FcgammaRIIIA, two receptors that bind IgG especially in the form of IgG immune complexes. LÄS MER
