  1. 1. Post-transplantation Hypercholesterolaemia

    Författare :Osama Al Rayyes; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thiazolidinediones; transplantation; low density lipoprotein; insulin; indomethacin; hydrocortisone; fluvastatin; flufenamic acid; Cholesterol; cyclosporine; troglitazone.; Immunology; serology; Immunologi; serologi;

    Sammanfattning : The multidrug regimen, cyclosporine, corticosteroids, and azathioprine, is used in transplantation centres to prevent organ rejection. Several clinical studies have shown that cyclosporine and corticosteroids to cause increases in low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol, with subsequent development of atherosclerosis. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Utilization and allocation of organs for transplantation - medical and ethical aspects

    Författare :Marie Omnell-Persson; Kirurgi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; estetik; metafysik; kunskapsteori; ideologi; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; ideology; epistemology; aesthetics; metaphysics; Systematic philosophy; ethics; utilization; organ donation; kidney transplantation; Allocation; attitudes; Praktisk filosofi;

    Sammanfattning : Great efforts have been made to find solutions to the shortage of organs, such as extending the donor pool by accepting so-called marginal donors and development of transplantation of organs from animals (xenotransplantation, xt). Due to the scarcity of organs, there is a long tradition of prioritizing among patients on the waiting list for transplantation. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Lung Transplantation: Clinical and experimental studies

    Författare :Leif Eriksson; allergologi och palliativ medicin Lungmedicin; []

    Sammanfattning : During the past 15 years lung transplantation has been established as a therapeutic option for patients with end-stage pulmonary disease. The results have improved over time and some transplantation centers now show 1-year survival rates above 80%. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Studies of Regulatory T cells with Implications for Clinical Applications

    Författare :Marcus Bergström; Olle Korsgren; Wayne Hawthorn; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Regulatory T cell; Treg; Transplantation; Immunology; Tolerance; Islet transplantation; Immunosuppression; Immunologi; Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are vital for regulating immune homeostasis and for preventing immunopathology. The immunosuppressive functions of Tregs have raised hope for their potential use in clinical applications. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Single Cell Investigations of the Functional Heterogeneity Within Immune Cell Populations : a Microchip-based Study

    Författare :Karolin Guldevall; Björn Önfelt; Hjalmar Brismar; Carsten Watzl; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biologisk fysik; Biological Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Immune cell populations are constantly divided into smaller and smaller subsets defined by newly emerging cellular markers. However, there is a growing awareness of the functional heterogeneities in between cells even within small populations, in addition to the heterogeneity over time. LÄS MER
