1. Regulatory aspects of innate immune responses
Sammanfattning : Activation of innate immunity is regulated by a variety of signaling molecules within the immune cells. The present thesis was aimed to improve our understanding of innate signaling mechanism and their possible use as bio-indicators of exposure and disease. LÄS MER
2. Host modulation of excessive innate immune responses
Sammanfattning : A fundamental role of the innate immune system is to elicit a proper response against both invading pathogens and tissue damage or danger signals. Although the innate immune system often is successful in eliminating danger, an excessive host-response can result in severe tissue injury. LÄS MER
3. Innate immune responses to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection : How extracellular traps and trained immunity can restrict bacterial growth
Sammanfattning : Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and the cause of 1.5 million deaths in 2018. During a pulmonary TB infection, the bacterium reaches the lungs and is phagocytosed by cells of the innate immune system, primarily macrophages. LÄS MER
4. Plasmodium falciparum-mediated modulation of innate immune cells: responses and regulation
Sammanfattning : Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) infection modulates the response of innate immune cells. The aim of this work was to study the impact of P. falciparum infection and P. LÄS MER
5. Innate immune mechanisms of atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a multi-factorial immune mediated disease in arterial wall characterized by lipid driven inflammation through activation of the immune system. Chronic vascular inflammation is an important component that modulates atherosclerosis evolution and its complications. LÄS MER
