21. Mucosal T-cell and cytokine responses in Helicobacter pylori-infected duodenal ulcer patients
Sammanfattning : Helicobacter pylori colonizes the human stomach and areas of gastric metaplasia in the duodenum. The bacterium is the major cause of chronic active gastritis and peptic ulcer disease and is a risk factor for the development of gastric adenocarcinoma and lymphoma. LÄS MER
22. Co-stimulation in gut mucosal immunity. Evidence of a differential regulationof local and systemic responses
Sammanfattning : In recent years we have learned that co-stimulatory factors are required as second signals for optimal T cell stimulation. Most types of immune responses are, therefore, dependent on the co-stimulatory signals that are provided by infection or immunization. LÄS MER
23. Cholera toxin B subunit as a carrier for inducing mucosal immunity and/or peripheral tolerance
Sammanfattning : When an antigen is introduced via a mucosal route, either immunity or tolerance, or even both may be induced. Both immunity and tolerance are actively induced phenomena and both of them could have important medical implications as well as potential prophylactic or therapeutic applications. LÄS MER
24. Nasal vaccination using novel mucosal adjuvants : with main focus on influenza A virus
Sammanfattning : Influenza viruses have sporadically caused pandemics during the last century, with the most severe occurring in 1918 when the “Spanish flu”, an A/H1N1 influenza virus, passed around the globe killing about 20-100 million people. Today 250 000-500 000 deaths occur annually due to influenza virus or secondary infection after influenza, e.g. LÄS MER
25. Experimental Disruption of Intestinal Mucosal Homeostasis : Exploring the Protective Potential of Melatonin and Misoprostol
Sammanfattning : The intestinal mucosa serves as a protective layer that separates the intestinal contents from the underlying tissues. It restricts harmful substances, pathogens, and undigested particles from entering the bloodstream. LÄS MER
