1. Prostaglandin E2 in Brain-mediated Illness Responses
Sammanfattning : We are unceasingly exposed to potentially harmful microorganisms. The battle against threatening infectious agents includes activation of both the innate and of the adaptive immune systems. LÄS MER
2. Cyclooxygenase activity and tumor progression
Sammanfattning : Invasive growth of malignant tumors is associated with local and systemic inflammation, which may promote progression and metastases. Inflammation is also responsible for appearing manifestations of advanced cancer as fatigue, anorexia and wasting with eicosanoids, proinflammatory cytokines and nitric oxide as mediators. LÄS MER
3. Transcriptional patterns in inflammatory disease
Sammanfattning : In the studies this thesis is based upon, microarrays were applied to profilemRNA populations in biological samples to gain insights into transcriptionalpatterns and their relation to inflammatory disease.Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease, which leads todegradation of cartilage and bone. LÄS MER
4. Prostaglandins and angiogenesis in experimental cancer
Sammanfattning : Background and aim. Genes, proteins and pathways have been identified and suggested as potential targets in tumor angiogenesis, but current anti-angiogenic therapies have provided only modest benefits in survival of cancer patients. LÄS MER
5. Nitric Oxide Regulation during Anti-tumor Immunotherapy
Sammanfattning : During tumor progression a strong immunosuppression is developed and is believed to be the major reason why immunotherapy fails. This suppression is induced in response to factors produced from tumor cells, but can also be induced after immunotherapy. LÄS MER
