    Sammanfattning : Francisella tularensis is a highly virulent, intracellular bacterium and the causative agent of the human disease tularemia. This is a zoonotic, often vector-borne disease. Due to its intracellular nature, F. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Innate and adaptive immunity in genital HSV-2 infection: Implications for vaccine development

    Författare :Ali M Harandi; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) is a sexually transmitted pathogen that infects the genital tract mucosa and is the most common case of genital ulcers in humans. Despite numerous studies, little is known about the mechanisms involved in immune protection and no anti-herpes vaccine has been developed to date. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Helicobacter pylori infection in a mouse model: Development, optimization and inhibitory effects of antioxidants

    Författare :Xin Wang; Avdelningen för medicinsk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; virology; bacteriology; Microbiology; mice; Helicobacter pylori; gastritis; lymphoma; antioxidant; diet; Th1 and Th2; cytokines; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori is a human pathogen strongly associated with chronic type B gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, gastric cancer and MALT lymphoma. Our aims were to establish a mouse model of H. pylori infection, to study pathogenesis of gastritis and gastric cancer and to investigate new treatment strategies in this model. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Neurotropic influenza A virus infection in the mouse brain : targeting, persistence and functional effects

    Författare :Fredrik Aronsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Influenza A virus; nervous system;

    Sammanfattning : Viral infections of the central nervous system have been associated with sensory, motor and behavioral disturbances both in humans and in animals. An example of this is influenza A virus infection that causes acute respiratory diseases, which occasionally are followed by complications from the central nervous system. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Immune modulation in chronic HBV and HCV infection

    Författare :Catharina Hultgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :HBV; HBeAg; HCV; NS3; chronic infection; humoral cellular immune response; Th1 Th2 cells; proliferative response;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic viral hepatitis is a major health problem worldwide. The two major viral causes for chronic hepatitis are the hepatitis B (HBV) and C viruses (HCV). HBV is a DNA virus with a rather limited genetic variability whereas HCV is an RNA virus with a high genetic variability. LÄS MER
