  1. 21. Exploring probiotics-host interactions : intestinal immune and defence responses to Lactobacillus reuteri in health and disease

    Författare :Shokoufeh Karimi; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Lactobacillus reuteri, a ubiquitous inhabitant of the mammalian gastrointestinal (GI) tract has known health-promoting effects and various strains are commercially available as probiotics. Several probiosis mechanisms have been suggested in L. reuteri’s mode of action, but the mediators and factors involved are not well understood. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis - A study, with emphasis on host genetics, oral microbiota composition, and immunoregulatory networks

    Författare :Maria Bankvall; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Aphthous stomatitis; Oral mucosa; Oral medicine; Genome-wide association study; Genetic linkage; Association; Genetic polymorphism; Microbiota; Restriction fragment length polymorphism; Antigen-presenting cell; T-lymphocyte; Lymph node; Flow cytometry;

    Sammanfattning : Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common oral mucosal lesions. The aetiology is unknown and currently there is no consensus regarding suitable treatment regimens. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Humoral and cellular immune response to Helicobacter pylori in Bangladeshi children and adults that may be related to protection

    Författare :Taufiqur Rahman Bhuiyan; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Helicobacter pylori; Adults; Children; Birth cohort; Maternal antibodies; Serology; Th17; T cell; B cell; Developing country;

    Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori (Hp) colonizes the human gastric and duodenal mucosa and the infection may cause peptic ulcers and gastric adenocarcinoma. Half of the world’s population is infected with Hp with the highest prevalence in developing countries. LÄS MER

  5. 24. The challenge of co-existence : from graft-versus-host disease to stable mixed chimerism after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

    Författare :Arwen Stikvoort; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The only curative treatment strategy for many hematologic and inborn immunodeficiency disorders is an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The treatment involves replacing the entire hematopoietic system of the recipient. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Role of TLR4 in Escherichia coli urinary tract infection

    Författare :Patrik Samuelsson; immunologi och glykobiologi - MIG Avdelningen för mikrobiologi; []

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis we have used P fimbriated E. coli as a model to investigate the mechanisms of bacterial recognition and cell activation by the urinary tract (UT) epithelium. We show that Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) is crucial for the recognition and host response to P fimbriated E. coli. LÄS MER
