    J Immunol 164:3214-21. 2000
    ..Moreover, in vitro blockade of CD14 did not impede bactericidal activity. Thus, anti-CD14 treatment interfered with host defense mechanisms involved with removal/eradication of Shigella...

    C Wenneras
    Unite de Pathogenie Microbienne Moleculaire, INSERM U389, Institut Pasteur, Paris, France
    J Endotoxin Res 7:442-6. 2001
    ..In contrast, higher quantities of TNF-alpha were observed in the CD14-blocked group. To conclude, anti-CD14 treatment had a detrimental effect on the capacity of Shigella-infected animals to clear the infection...

    J Health Popul Nutr 22:370-82. 2004
    ..5 diarrhoeal episodes per year caused by ETEC until the age of five years, after which the yearly incidence drops to 0.1. To conclude, ETEC remains an important diarrhoeal pathogen among children in the developing world...

    Nahid Kondori
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Goteborg, Sweden
    Med Mycol 48:1005-8. 2010
    ..Due to its sensitivity, specificity and rapidity, we conclude that this PCR is an attractive method for routine investigation of nail dermatophytosis in a clinical setting...
  5. ncbi Interplay between signaling via the formyl peptide receptor (FPR) and chemokine receptor 3 (CCR3) in human eosinophils
    Lena Svensson
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, Goteborg University, Goteborg, Sweden
    J Leukoc Biol 86:327-36. 2009
    ..Pharmacologic inhibition of signal transduction molecules showed that the release of free oxygen radicals in response to eotaxin-1 compared with fMLP is relatively more dependent on the p38 MAPK pathway...

    Lena Svensson
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, Goteborg University, Guldhedsgatan 10, S 413 46 Goteborg, Sweden
    Microbes Infect 7:720-8. 2005
    ..We propose that the presence of defined bacterial species in the normally sterile tissues inhabited by eosinophils may constitute danger signals to eosinophils. This may be of importance in the perpetuation of allergic inflammation...
  7. ncbi Cyclosporin H, Boc-MLF and Boc-FLFLF are antagonists that preferentially inhibit activity triggered through the formyl peptide receptor
    Anna Lena Stenfeldt
    Department of Rheumatology and Inflammation Research, Guldhedsgatan 10, S 413 46, Goteborg, Sweden
    Inflammation 30:224-9. 2007
    ..Based on the difference in potency of cyclosporin H and the two Boc-peptides, we suggest using cyclosporin H as a specific inhibitor for FPR. To specifically inhibit the FPRL1 response the antagonist WRW(4) should be used...

    Inflammation 32:65-9. 2009
    ..However, CC16 did not inhibit eosinophil migration towards PGD(2). We therefore propose that CC16 may down-modulate the entry of human eosinophils and neutrophils into the airways during inflammation in the lung...

    Lena Svensson
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, Goteborg University, Goteborg, Sweden
    Eur J Immunol 37:1966-77. 2007

    Lena Svensson
    Department of Clinical Bacteriology, , Gothenburg, Sweden
    Eur J Immunol 34:1744-51. 2004
    ..We propose that eosinophil activation in vivo is not exclusively mediated by cytokines and chemokines of the allergic inflammatory reaction, but could partly be the result of direct interaction between allergens and eosinophils...
