  1. 6. Expression and Purification of Recombinant Human S100A8 and S100A9 for Characterization of Their Roles as Danger Signals

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi

    Author : Rebecca Trang; [2015]
    Keywords : S100A9; DAMP; RAGE; TLR4; applied biochemistry; tillämpad biokemi; S100A8; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The direct involvement of S100 calcium-binding proteins A8 (S100A8) and A9 (S100A9) in numerous human diseases have been discovered more than 20 years ago, and they have ever since emerged as a very potent biomarker. Increased levels of S100A8 and S100A9 have been found in inflammation and various cancers. READ MORE

  2. 7. Pattern recognition receptors’ and chemokine receptor expression on tonsil dendritic cells

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Utbildningsprogram, LTH; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för immunteknologi

    Author : Milad Abolhalaj; [2015]
    Keywords : CLEC9a; CD207; CD206; Flow cytometry; pathogen recognition receptors; dendritic cells; Tonsils; immunotherapy; XCR1; CLECSF14; Dectin-1; TLR4; TLR2; Dectin-2; CD205; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the sixth most frequent cancer worldwide and its high mortality rate highlights the necessity of developing novel therapies. Among the different cancer therapy methods, one of the most encouraging ones is dendritic cell (DC)-targeting immunotherapy, where desired antigens are delivered to DCs via antibodies. READ MORE

  3. 8. Oral Lichenoid Lesions - Differences in expression of TLR4 and TLR9 in Oral Lichen Planus and amalgam induced Oral Lichenoid Lesions

    University essay from Malmö högskola/Odontologiska fakulteten (OD)

    Author : Julia Persson; Mariken Brecheisen; [2014]
    Keywords : Toll-like receptor 4; Toll-like receptor 9; Oral Lichen Planus; Contact Oral Lichenoid Lesions; immunohistochemistry; Dental amalgam;

    Abstract : Oral lichen planus (OLP) är en idiopatisk kronisk inflammatorisk sjukdom som drabbar munslemhinnan hos ca 2 % av den svenska befolkningen. Amalgamfyllningar kan framkalla lichenoida kontaktlesioner (cOLL), som kliniskt kan vara svåra att särskilja från OLP. Det är dessutom inte möjligt att skilja mellan OLP och cOLL histologiskt.

  5. 10. Development of a real-time RT-PCR for quantification of bovine TLR4 mRNA and evaluation of its use during a BRSV vaccine challenge

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Krister Blodörn; [2011]
    Keywords : BRSV; bovine respiratory syncytial virus; TLR4; Toll-like receptor 4;

    Abstract : The Bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) causes bronchiolitis and interstitial pneumonia, predominantly in calves, and is a major cause of bovine respiratory disease worldwide. In humans, BRSV is paralleled by the closely related Human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV), an important cause of respiratory disease, most severe in infants. READ MORE
