  1. 11. Induction of Mast Cell Apoptosis via Granule Permeabilization : A Novel Approach to Target Mast Cells

    Författare :Aida Paivandy; Gunnar Pejler; Magda Babina; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mast cells; Granules; Apoptosis; Reactive oxygen species; ROS; Lysosomotropic agents; Mefloquine; Immunologi; Immunology; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Mast cells are densely granulated tissue-resident immune cells that play an important role in orchestrating inflammatory responses. Dysregulated increases in the numbers and activation status of mast cells can have deleterious consequences for the body in various inflammatory diseases. LÄS MER

  2. 12. The mast cell transcriptome and the evolution of granule proteins and Fc receptors

    Författare :Srinivas Akula; Lars Hellman; Sandra Kleinau; Arne Egesten; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mast cell; Fc receptors; Granule serine protease; Evolution and transcriptome.; Immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : Protection against disease-causing pathogens, known as immunity, involves numerous cells organs, tissues and their products. To able to understand the biology of immune cells (hematopoietic cells) and their role in an immune system, we have used several different methods, including transcriptome analyses, bioinformatics, production of recombinant proteins and analyses of some of them, focusing on the granule proteases by substrate phage display.

  3. 13. Peripheral Regulation of Pain and Itch

    Författare :Elín Ingibjörg Magnúsdóttir; Malin C. Lagerström; George H. Caughey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pain; itch; CGRP; TRPV1; mast cell; mast cell protease; mMCP4; mMCP6; CPA3; endothelin-1; compound 48 80; MRGPRX2; single-stranded oligonucleotide;

    Sammanfattning : Pain and itch are diverse sensory modalities, transmitted by the somatosensory nervous system. Stimuli such as heat, cold, mechanical pain and itch can be transmitted by different neuronal populations, which show considerable overlap with regards to sensory activation. LÄS MER

  4. 14. New aspects of allergic mechanisms and innate immunity in asthma. Alarmins as upstream mediators of asthma inflammation

    Författare :Sangeetha Ramu; Lunds universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Asthma; Aeroallergens; Airway inflammation; Bronchial epithelial cells; Bronchial smooth muscle cells; Metabolic DAMPs; Proteases; Allergen immunotherapy; Mast cells; Viral infections; innate immunity;

    Sammanfattning : Asthma is a chronic inflammatory lung disease affecting over 300 million individuals worldwide. Both respiratory viral infections and aeroallergens have been identified as important risk factors for asthma. LÄS MER

  5. 15. The role of mast cell proteases in allergic disease and apoptosis

    Författare :Ida Waern; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Mast cells (MCs) are key effector cells in allergic reactions, through the release of a wide variety of granule-stored and de novo synthesized inflammatory mediators. The MC secretory granules contain exceedingly high levels of serglycin proteoglycan and the heparin-binding proteases chymase, tryptase and carboxypeptidase A. LÄS MER
