26. On airway host defence during allergic inflammation
Sammanfattning : Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways, affecting and disablingapproximately 300 million people worldwide. The inflammatory profile ischaracterized by infiltration of eosinophils, which are a rich source of factors thatare implicated in tissue remodeling. LÄS MER
27. Biomarkers of disease activity and organ damage in systemic lupus erythematosus
Sammanfattning : Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic inflammatory disease. Clinically, the distinction between ongoing inflammation attributed to SLE, and organ damage due to medication or co-morbidities remains challenging. LÄS MER
28. Human endometrial receptivity and embryo-endometrium interactions
