6. Studies on the relationship between periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are both widespread multifactorial diseases, characterized by chronic inflammation leading to tissue and bone destruction around teeth or joints, respectively. An association between periodontitis and RA has been proposed, suggesting that the periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. LÄS MER
7. Specifity and genetic control of B cell reactivity in experimental arthritis
Sammanfattning : Collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and pristane-induced arthritis (PIA) are animal models for human rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and can be induced in susceptible mouse and rat strains. CIA is induced by immunization of type II collagen (CII), a cartilage specific protein together with Freund’s adjuvant. LÄS MER
8. New models for relapsing polychondritis and rheumatoid arthritis : focus on the tissue specific immune response
Sammanfattning : Relapsing polychondritis (RP) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are autoimmune diseases where an inappropriate immune response destroys cartilage. In RP, the ears, larynx, nose and joints are affected, while the most prominent sign of RA is arthritis. LÄS MER
9. Oxidative regulation of NCF1 in B cells and mouse models of arthritis
Sammanfattning : Autoimmune diseases (ADs) are chronic pathologies that result from a dysregulation of autoreactive B and T cells leading to autoantibody production and ultimately destruction of self. In paper I, we studied inflammation associated with autoimmunity. LÄS MER
10. The MHC and the recognition of self and altered self in experimental and rheumatoid arthritis
Sammanfattning : The Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a highly polymorphic and gene-dense region on chromosome 6 in humans and 20 in the rat. Genes in the MHC are the major risk factor for the development of autoimmunity. LÄS MER
