16. Vascular Interactions in Innate Immunity and Immunothrombosis: : Models of Endothelial Protection
Sammanfattning : The phenomenon known as immunothrombosis has garnered increased attention over the last few years. Much work has been done to characterize the cross talk between hemostasis and the innate immune system. LÄS MER
17. Role of adhesion molecules and chemokines in TNF-alpha-induced leukocyte recruitment
Sammanfattning : Migration of leukocytes from the circulating blood into the extravascular tissue is a key component in inflammatory reactions. Leukocyte extravasation (rolling-activation-adhesion-transmigration) is strictly coordinated by adhesion molecules and chemokines expressed on cell surfaces and in tissues. LÄS MER
18. Studies on vascular remodeling in acute coronary artery disease
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is an arterial disease, characterized by endothelial dysfunction, vascular inflammation, and lipid accumulation in the vessel wall. Unstable coronary syndroms may be initiated by rupture of the atherosclerotic plaque, which may be caused by activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), apoptosis and angiogenesis. LÄS MER
19. Alpha1-Antitrypsin: New insights into the biological role in vitro and in vivo
Sammanfattning : Alpha1-Antitrypsin (AAT), an acute-phase glycoprotein produced predominantly in the liver by hepatocytes, but also by macrophages, pulmonary alveolar cells and intestinal epithelial cells, is a member of the SERPIN superfamily (SERine Protease INhibitors), and is one of the major inhibitors of neutrophil elastase in human plasma. Although AAT plays a critical role in regulating inflammation by inhibiting neutrophil serine proteases, recent studies suggest that AAT exhibits much broader anti-inflammatory activity. LÄS MER
20. Modulating the activity of OGG1 using small molecules to target the oxidative DNA damage response in cancer and inflammation
Sammanfattning : The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is increased in several pathological conditions including cancer and inflammation. Multiple lines of evidence suggest that ROS are involved in signaling events that promote tumorigenesis and inflammatory responses. LÄS MER
