  1. 1. The adenoid defender of the nasopharynx. A study of the cells in the surface secretion in the nasopharynx

    Författare :Magnus Ivarsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Adenoid; nasopharynx; leukocytes; surface secretion; ELISPOT; phagocytosis;

    Sammanfattning : The adenoid is implicated in the pathogenesis of upper airway infections (UAI), but in a not yet understood way. In contrast to the adenoid tissue, the surface secretion on the adenoid, which contains not only pathogenic bacteria and viruses but also leukocytes, has attracted little interest. LÄS MER

  3. 2. On Minor Salivary Gland Secretion

    Författare :Lars Eliasson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; age; dental plaque pH; dentures; gender; health; IgA; medication; minor salivary glands; oral dryness; saliva; salivary secretion rate;

    Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this series of studies has been to examine palatal, buccal and labial minor salivary gland secretions in relation to age and gender and other factors and conditions that could have effects on the saliva. Further aims were to analyze minor salivary gland secretions in relation to feelings of oral dryness and dental plaque pH. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Nanocellulose for Biomedical Applications : Modification, Characterisation and Biocompatibility Studies

    Författare :Kai Hua; Natalia Ferraz; Maria Strømme; Albert Mihranyan; Pedro Granja; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanocellulose; nanofibrillated cellulose; Cladophora cellulose; biocompatibility; inflammation; surface modification; surface group density; surface topography; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material;

    Sammanfattning : In the past decade there has been increasing interest in exploring the use of nanocellulose in medicine. However, the influence of the physicochemical properties of nanocellulose on the material´s biocompatibility has not been fully investigated. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Macrophage-material surface interactions

    Författare :Christina Gretzer; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Apoptosis; biomaterials; cell-cell interactions; cell-material interactions; cytokines; differentiation; fibrinogen; hydrogen peroxide; LPS; monocytes; particles;

    Sammanfattning : Material surface-stimulated activation of the macrophage and the release of mediators has been suggested to be an important factor for inflammation and tissue regeneration around biomedical implants. Macrophage interactions with particles released from implants as well as macophage-bacteria interactions are also involved in implant loosening processes. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The function of annexin I in human neutrophils. Studies of membrane binding

    Författare :Charlotta Movitz; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Human neutrophils; secretion; annexin I; grancalcin; subcellular organelles; lipid rafts; DIM;

    Sammanfattning : The neutrophil granulocyte plays an important role in host defense against infections induced by invading microorganisms. The defense mechanism is dependent on the migration of neutrophils from the blood stream to the infected area, where the intruder is phagocytosed and killed. LÄS MER
