  1. 11. Studies of Enterovirus Infection and Induction of Innate Immunity in Human Pancreatic Cells

    Författare :Mahesh Anagandula; Magnus Essand; Didier Hober; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 Diabetes; Enterovirus; Innate Immunity; Pancreas;

    Sammanfattning : Several epidemiological and clinical studies have indicated a possible role of Enterovirus (EV) infection in type 1 diabetes (T1D) development. However, the exact casual mechanism of these viruses in T1D development is not known. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Host Defense Properties of Collagen VI. A novel concept in connective tissue innate immunity

    Författare :Suado M Abdillahi; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Innate Immunity; Antimicrobial peptides; Collagen VI; Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease COPD ;

    Sammanfattning : Rapid and powerful host defense mechanisms are essential in order to overcome harmful actions of pathogenic bacteria. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and proteins are vital effector molecules of the fast-acting innate immune system and exist virtually in all living organisms. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Bacterial virulence or exorbitant host response? On innate immunity against the streptococcal M1 protein

    Författare :Sandra Persson; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Skin infection; Streptococcus pyogenes; M1 protein; Innate Immunity; Host response; Virulence factor; Neutrophil recruitment; Heparin-binding protein HBP ; Leptospirosis;

    Sammanfattning : Bacterial infection is inevitable throughout a lifetime. What differs between mild andserious infections is the pathogen responsible and how the host immune systemresponds to it. A fundamental role to prevent infection is a proper physical barrier such as the skin and mucosa. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Innate defense mechanisms of the nasal airway

    Författare :Henrik Widegren; Lund näs- och halssjukdomar Öron-; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neutrophils; Leukotriene B4; CC10; TNF-alpha; innate immunity; allergic rhinitis; Airway inflammation;

    Sammanfattning : Allergic and infectious rhinitis are prevalent conditions that besides a direct morbidity also causes exacerbations of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The immune mechanisms associated with various forms of rhinitis are not fully understood. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Innate immunity in progressive multiple sclerosis

    Författare :Shahin Aeinehband; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis is (MS) is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease of central nervous system (CNS) leading to demyelination, axonal damage and neurological handicap, often affecting young adults. A majority of patients with MS initiate their disease with clinical bouts and relapses, but with time convert to a progressive course with dampened signs of CNS inflammation but increasing neurological deficits.
