1. Endocytosis by human dendritic cells
Sammanfattning : Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized antigen-presenting cells with the ability to internalize antigen, and present antigen-derived peptides to T cells. The functions of DCs depend on the subset, as well as their location and activation state. LÄS MER
2. Potential immunoregulatory role of T and dendritic cells in cancer : Investigations based on transcriptional analysis
Sammanfattning : Cancer is a complex disease with various genetic and epigenetic driving factors. Cancer cells form a favored microenvironment to sustain their uncontrolled behavior leading to abnormal growth. With standard treatment including chemotherapy, relapse risk is high due to the resistance that cancer cells can develop against chemotherapy agents. LÄS MER
3. Human Dendritic Cells and the Regulation of Allergic Immune Responses
Sammanfattning : Dendritic cells (DC) are a heterogeneous lineage of bone-marrow-derived leukocytes that serve as the link between innate and adaptive immunity. They are professional antigen-presenting cells that play an important protective and regulatory role in both health and disease. LÄS MER
4. Subsets of Human Dendritic Cells and their Role in Allergy
Sammanfattning : The immune system has evolved to protect the human body against harmful invaders. At the same time, development of tolerance against self-derived and innocuous foreign antigens is of vital importance in order to avoid detrimental immune disorders. In allergic conditions, hypersensitivity is developed against harmless antigens, such as pollen. LÄS MER
5. Biomarkers in sepsis and other severe infections
Sammanfattning : Infectious diseases constitute a major global health problem. The presenting clinical picture results from a mixture of direct toxic actions by the microbiological agent and of the immune response mounted by the host. LÄS MER
