1. Extracellular Matrix Remodelling-Proteoglycan and collagen turnover in arthritis
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic, inflammatory and systemic disease characterised by joint destruction and pannus formation. To enlarge the understanding how pannus and granulation tissue are formed two animal models were used; one using cartilage wrapped in cotton and implanted into a rat air pouch (AP) and one where mBSA induced arthritis (AIA) was performed.

2. Aniridia-related keratopathy : structural changes, signaling pathways and clinical aspects
Sammanfattning : Aniridia is a congenital autosomal dominant, bilateral, panocular condition, caused by haploinsufficiency of the Pax6 transcription factor. Aniridia-related keratopathy (ARK) significantly affects vision and quality of life in these patients. LÄS MER
3. Studies on novel immunosuppressive agents in experimental arthritis
Sammanfattning : Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the joints. The hallmark of RA is persisting inflammation in diarthrodial joints with infiltration of leukocytes, thickening of the synovial lining layer and synovial pannus formation. LÄS MER
4. Prediction of disease progression in early rheumatoid arthritis. A study of some imaging and laboratory variables
Sammanfattning : Objective: To investigate the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), assessment of bone mineral density (BMD) and antibodies to citrullinated proteins (anti-CCP) in predicting radiologic outcome in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Patients: All patients were included in the BARFOT programme (baseline). LÄS MER
