Non-exocrine complaints also occur, e.g. fatigue, myalgia and arthralgia, as well as disturbed mood. LÄS MER
5. T cells, Cytokines, and Genetic Factors in Autoimmunity Studies of experimental models of arthritis and sialadenitis
Sammanfattning : To understand the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases we have to consider the problem from different angles. Animal models provide a tool to further understand these complex diseases, as the influence of genetic and environmental factors could be limited. LÄS MER
