  1. 11. Influence of probiotic treatment on allergy methylomics : Gene network analysis of epigenetic methylation patterns in CD4+ T cells from newborns treated with Lactobacillus reuteri

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Bioinformatik

    Author : Simon Söderholm; [2018]
    Keywords : allergy; epigenetics; methylation; probiotics; bioinformatics; CD4 T cells; Lactobacillus reuteri; PPI-networks;

    Abstract : The composition and diversity of the gastrointestinal microbiota and its interaction with human cells have been frequently associated with immune system functions and disease development, including autoimmunity and allergy. This is believed to be mediated in part through epigenetic modifications, mainly as DNA methylation. READ MORE

  5. 14. Immunterapi vid cancer : är blockering av PD-1 en möjlig behandlingsmetod för hund?

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

    Author : Sofia Tengstrand; [2017]
    Keywords : cancer; immunterapi; PD-1; PD-L1; hund; immunotherapy; dog;

    Abstract : Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) är en ko-inhiberande receptor som uttrycks på bland annat T-celler. Vid aktivering av T-celler leder interaktion mellan PD-1 och dess ligand, PD-L1, till att signalering från T-cellsreceptorn inhiberas och T-cellernas effektorfunktioner hämmas. READ MORE

  6. 15. Role of estrogen nuclear receptor (ER) in T helper cells
