Journal ArticleDOI
Noninvasive acoustic cell trapping in a microfluidic perfusion system for online bioassays.
Mikael Evander,Linda Johansson,Tobias Lilliehorn,Jure Piškur,Magnus Lindvall,Stefan Johansson,Monica Almqvist,Thomas Laurell,Johan Nilsson +8 more
TL;DR: The demonstrated acoustic trapping of cells and particles enables cell- or particle-based bioassays to be performed in a continuous flow format and enhances the noncontact mode of cell handling when studies on nonadherent cells are performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental exposure to wood-smoke particles in healthy humans : effects on markers of inflammation, coagulation, and lipid peroxidation.
Lars Barregard,Gerd Sallsten,Pernilla Gustafson,Lena Andersson,Linda Johansson,Samar Basu,Lennart Stigendal +6 more
TL;DR: Exposure to wood smoke increased the levels of serum amyloid A, a cardiovascular risk factor, as well as factor VIII in plasma and the factor VIII/von Willebrand factor ratio, indicating a slight effect on the balance of coagulation factors and a temporary increase in free radical-mediated lipid peroxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI
CD46 in meningococcal disease
Linda Johansson,Anne Rytkönen,Peter Bergman,Barbara Albiger,Helena Källström,Tomas Hökfelt,Birgitta Agerberth,Roberto Cattaneo,Ann-Beth Jonsson +8 more
TL;DR: Development of disease was more efficient with piliated bacteria after intranasal, but not intraperitoneal, challenge of CD46 transgenic mice, suggesting that human CD46 facilitates pilus-dependent interactions at the epithelial mucosa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coagulation, an ancestral serine protease cascade, exerts a novel function in early immune defense
Torsten G. Loof,Matthias Mörgelin,Linda Johansson,Sonja Oehmcke,Anders I. Olin,Gerhard Dickneite,Anna Norrby-Teglund,Ulrich Theopold,Heiko Herwald +8 more
TL;DR: Bacterial killing and cross-linking to fibrin networks was also detected in tissue biopsies from patients with streptococcal necrotizing fasciitis, supporting the concept that coagulation is part of the early innate immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Invasive group B Streptococcal disease in non-pregnant adults : a review with emphasis on skin and soft-tissue infections.
TL;DR: The epidemiology, pathogenesis and treatment of invasive GBS disease in non-pregnant adults, with an emphasis on skin and soft-tissue infections is reviewed, including necrotizing fasciitis and toxic shock syndrome.
