  1. 1. Regulation of human immune responses to allergens

    Författare :Anna-Carin Lundell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :recognition receptors; antigen-presenting cells; sCD14; sCD83; T cells; neonates; gut microflora; staphylococcus aureus; allergens; allergy; children;

    Sammanfattning : The incidence of allergic diseases is increasing in the industrialized countries. Epidemiological studies indicate that there is an association between exposure to high levels of endotoxin or cat allergen during infancy and reduced risk of developing allergic diseases later in childhood.

  3. 2. Maturation of T-lymphocytes and monocytes in children in relation to development of atopic disease

    Författare :Helena Aniansson Zdolsek; Örjan Stranne; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund: Atopiska sjukdomar har ökat i västvärlden under de senaste årtiondena. För att förstå den bakomliggande mekanismen vid sensibilisering mot allergen behöver vi förbättra vår kunskap av T-lymfocyters och monocyters utmognad hos små bam. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cytokine studies in the generation and treatment of IgE-mediated allergy

    Författare :Ankie Söderlund; Huub Savelkoul; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Cytokines; Hypersensitivity; Allergy; Allergi; immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : So called Th2 cytokines, such as IL-4 and IL-13 are responsible for the formation of IgE antibodies, the effector antibody in atopic allergy. Cytokines of Th1 type, for example IFN-g, inhibit these responses. This thesis describes work aimed at elucidating the cytokine production underlying IgE-mediated allergy. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Dysregulation of the immune system in chronic kidney disease and the impact on disease manifestations and co-morbidity

    Författare :Senka Sendic; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease and infections. Both conditions share the same underlying cause comprising of changes in innate and adaptive immunity. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Influence of maternal allergy on the intra uterine environment and on immune functions of the neonate

    Författare :Ulrika Holmlund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Allergy; CD14; cord blood; cytokines; human placenta; IgE; Toll-like receptors;

    Sammanfattning : The prevalence of IgE mediated allergic diseases has drastically increased during the past few decades and there is no satisfactory explanation. A family history of allergic disease is clearly a strong risk factor, bin in view of the rapidity of the increase in allergy prevalence environmental factors are likely to have played a crucial role.
