Journal ArticleDOI
The human antimicrobial and chemotactic peptides LL-37 and α-defensins are expressed by specific lymphocyte and monocyte populations
Birgitta Agerberth,Jehad Charo,Joachim Werr,Berit Olsson,Farah Idali,Lennart Lindbom,Rolf Kiessling,Hans Jörnvall,Hans Wigzell,Gudmundur H. Gudmundsson +9 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that microbicidal peptides are effector molecules of lymphocytes and that antibacterial activity previously shown to be derived from T and NK cells may be partly mediated by the antibacterial peptides LL-37 and HNP 1-3.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of regulatory T cell associated forkhead box P3 expression in the lungs of patients with sarcoidosis.
TL;DR: There is a reduced expression of regulatory T cell associated genes in BALF CD4+ T cells in sarcoidosis, and the data suggest an effector function of AV2S3+ lung‐accumulated T Cells in sarCOidosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced Th1 response in the lungs of HLA-DRB1*0301 patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis
Farah Idali,Maria Wikén,Jan Wahlström,Håkan Mellstedt,Anders Eklund,Hodjattallah Rabbani,Johan Grunewald +6 more
TL;DR: Patterns of cytokine expression in bronchoalveolar lavage cells and BAL fluid from patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis and controls show a reduced expression of T-helper cell type-1 cytokines in human leukocyte-associated antigen-DRB1*0301 positive patients, which may relate to their good prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, integrin beta3, beta fibrinogen, and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphisms in Iranian women with recurrent pregnancy loss.

TL;DR: Analysis of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1, integrin beta3, beta fibrinogen and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphisms in Iranian women with recurrent pregnancy loss found five polymorphisms were significant.
Journal ArticleDOI
No evidence of altered alveolar macrophage polarization, but reduced expression of TLR2, in bronchoalveolar lavage cells in sarcoidosis
Maria Wikén,Farah Idali,Farah Idali,Muntasir Abo Al Hayja,Johan Grunewald,Anders Eklund,Jan Wahlström +6 more
TL;DR: Overall, there was no evidence for alveolar macrophage polarization in sarcoidosis, but there was a reduced TLR2 mRNA expression in patients with Löfgren's syndrome, which may be of relevance for macrophages interactions with a postulated sarcoIDosis pathogen, and for the characteristics of the ensuing T cell response.
