  1. 6. Secretory Leukocyte Protease Inhibitor (SLPI) in the gastrointestinal tract in man

    Författare :Max Nyström; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Surgery; elastase inhibitors; human leukocyt proteases; Plasma protease inhibitors; NGAL; Ulcerative colitis; Antileukoprotease; IBD; traumatologi; ortopedi; traumatology; orthopaedics; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor is a 11.7 kDa acid stable serine protease inhibitor. SLPI has been shown to be the dominant protease inhibitor in bronchial secretions and has been used in treatment of pulmonary emphysema. LÄS MER

  2. 7. On the Biosynthesis and Processing of Cathepsin G, Leukocyte Elastase, and Azurocidin ­ neutrophil granule members of a hematopoietic serine protease superfamily

    Författare :Anders Lindmark; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; extracellular fluids; Haematology; sorting; Activation; propeptide; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Sammanfattning : The serine proteases cathepsin G, leukocyte elastase, proteinase 3, and the inactive protease homologue azurocidin, stored in the azurophil granules of neutrophils, belong to a hematopoietic serine protease superfamily with members in mature effector cells of bone marrow origin. Promonocytic U-937 cells were used for studying the biosynthesis of cathepsin G and leukocyte elastase by biosynthetic radiolabelling. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Tobacco smoking, vascular reaction and neutrophil activity in periodontal health and disease

    Författare :Lena Persson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Tobacco smoking has considerable negative effects on periodontal health. The mechanisms behind these effects may be related to the inflammatory response. In this thesis, the main aim was to study the influence of tobacco smoking on the inflammatory response in periodontal health and disease. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Biosynthesis, Processing, and Sorting of Human Neutrophil Granule Proteins. Focus on Cathepsin G, Proteinase 3, and Azurocidin

    Författare :Daniel Garwicz; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hematologi; extracellular fluids; Haematology; differentiation; bone marrow progenitor cells; preproform; mutations; Cell lines; transfection; extracellulära vätskor;

    Sammanfattning : The neutrophil granulocyte contains a number of multifunctional proteins stored in different subsets of granules. The azurophil granules, synthesized early during differentiation, harbour leukocyte elastase, cathepsin G, proteinase 3, and azurocidin; the members of the serprocidin family. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Studies on plaque distribution and gingival crevicular fluid after non-surgical treatment in smokers and non-smokers with periodontal diseases

    Författare :Birgitta Söder; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Scaling; root planing; refractory periodontitis; long-term maintenance therapy; computerized planimetric plaque measurements P%I ; plaque distribution; smoking; systemic metronidazole; gingival crevicular fluid; neutrophil elastase; prostaglandin E2;

    Sammanfattning : Dental plaque plays a key role in the complex process by which periodontal diseases are initiated. The basic treatment of these diseases is non-surgical, involving supragingival plaque control as well as supra- and subgingival scaling and root planing. LÄS MER
