  1. 1. Role of androgen receptor signaling in the activation and differentiation of plasmacytoid dendritic cells

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Författare :Faiza Tahsin Rashid; [2023-06-27]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Androgens are steroid hormones essential for the development and maintenance of male reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are immune cells that act as the first line of defense against viral infections. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Expression of complement factor C1r and C1s in human gingival fibroblasts

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för odontologi

    Författare :Hanna From; [2023]
    Nyckelord :fibroblasts; pEDS; C1r; C1s;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory condition rendering in degradation of tooth supporting tissue. In the inflammatory process cytokines, amongst others TNF-a, IL-1b and IL-6 play an important role in regulating the immune response. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Cytokine capture with beads in cytotoxicity assays in microwells

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Författare :Maxime Simon; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Microbead; Inteferon gamma; Natural Killer cells; microwell; binding-reaction model; Mikrokula; Interferon gamma; Naturliga Mördarceller; Mikrobrunn; modell för bindningsreaktion;

    Sammanfattning : Cytokines are small, secreted proteins that are important for cell signalling in theimmune system. Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is one of the most potent cytokines thatnatural killer (NK) cells of the innate immune system secrete with both antiviral,antibacterial, and antitumoral activity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Multivariate analysis and classification of pathogenic priming components in wild-type and lab mice

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Armand Stoe; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Animal models have a long history of being used in research for the purpose of investigating biological processes and testing the effect of specific compounds on the functionality of biological processes. Different types of mice are used as animal models, most notably inbred and outbred strains. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Phenotype and function of imiquimod-treated MUTZ-3 derived Langerhans cells in potential psoriatic 3D skin model

    Master-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Författare :Emilie Allentoft Schousboe; [2023]
    Nyckelord :3D models; imiquimod; Langerhans cells; MUTZ-3 cell line; pro-inflammatory cytokines; psoriasis;

    Sammanfattning : Upon encounter of an antigen, epidermis-resident Langerhans cells (LCs) become activated and present the processed antigen to T cells of the draining lymph nodes, resulting in tolerogenic or inflammatory responses. In psoriasis plaques, skin homeostasis is disrupted and replaced by an inflammatory dermatitis. LÄS MER
