    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neurophysiology; Neurologi; neuropsykologi; neurofysiologi; neuropsychology; Neurology; Axon and myelin damage; IgG; Virus; Interferon; Multiple Sclerosis; Genetic linkage;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system, characterized by focal inflammatory lesions with demyelination and axonal loss. It is believed that MS is an immune-mediated disorder with both genetic and environmental contributions to the pathogenesis. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Immunological effects of interferon-beta and glatiramer acetate in multiple sclerosis

    Författare :Yassir Hussien; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []

    Sammanfattning : Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system, which results in demyelination, axonal loss and neurological deficits. The aetiology is unknown, however, immunopathological events, which are believed to be of an autoimmune nature, are considered to be responsible for the development of the disease. LÄS MER

    Författare :Cristopher McCrae; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Asthma; COPD; Exacerbation; Virus; Interferon;

    Sammanfattning : Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with periods of worsened symptoms, known as exacerbations. Severe exac-erbations can result in hospitalisation, irreversible decline of the disease and sometimes death. Thus, exacerbations are a major cause of morbidity, mortality and healthcare cost.
