6. Studies on Redox-proteins and Cytokines in inflammation and Cancer
Sammanfattning : The redox state in the cell plays a major role in determining vital functions and its major imbalance can lead to severe cell injury or death. Redox active proteins and cytokines involved in this process includes thioredoxin (Trx), protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamilies. LÄS MER
7. Studies of the pathogenesis of hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura
Sammanfattning : This study investigated the pathogenesis of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). (1) The relative roles of lipopolysaccharide and Shiga-like toxin-2 were studied in a mouse model of Escherichia coli O157:H7 infection. LÄS MER
8. Macrophage Activation and AP-1 in Atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : High levels of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and intermediate density lipoprotein (IDL) have been identified as independent risk factors for coronary heart disease. Hypertriglyceridemia is generally associated with an increased expression of inflammatory makers and inflammation is thought to contribute to atherosclerosis and its complications. LÄS MER
9. Tumor necrosis factor superfamily members CD137 and OX40 ligand in vascular inflammation
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis, an inflammatory disease, is the major cause of cardiovascular disease - the main cause of death worldwide. T cells are central orchestrators of inflammation in atherosclerosis and critically depend on costimulation for adequate function. LÄS MER
10. Regulation of human macrophage gene expression by oxidized low density lipoprotein. Studies on tumor necrosis factor-a and global gene expression profiles
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial and progressive disease that is characterized by a focal thickening of the arteries caused by accumulation of lipoproteins, extracellular matrix, and the migration and proliferation of various cell types. Among the cells found in atherosclerotic lesions are macrophages, which accumulate lipids and are transformed into foam cells. LÄS MER
