In the present study, we first want to investigate whether BCG-vaccination enhances the innate immune response in humans in vivo during human endotoxemia. In the second experiment we want to investigate whether BCG-vaccination can reverse the…
In this study we aim to elucidate effects of dietary sodium intake on:1. Microcirculation by studying the capillary network during high and low sodium conditions.2. Adaptive and innate immune system by studying circulating T-lymphocyte…
To investigate the effect on symptomatology of interference with IL-1 in CFS patients.
Part 1: To assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic-dynamic response, of single escalating doses of EA-230 in healthy subjects.Part 2: To assess the dose-and plasma concentration-response relation of single escalating doses EA-230 on…
To examine the effect of BCG as an adjuvant on DTP vaccination, and to investigate the non-specific training effects of BCG and DTP, alone and in combination, on the innate immune system.
Determine whether the prevalence of allergic sensitilization, defined as at least one allergen specific IgE with a concentration of >= 0,35 kU/l, is lower in people with than without DS. Analyse whether this prevalene is depending on age, how…
Our objective is to assess whether patients with SM compared to controls have more advanced atherosclerosis assessed by carotid intima-media thickness (C-IMT) and carotid plaques and have a more adverse cardiovascular risk profile.
We expect to provide evidence for our hypothesis stating that patients who develop infectious complications after trauma are characterized by a specific subset of circulating neutrophils displaying a reduced capacity to eradicate bacteria.…
More knowledge on immunity to VZV in these patient groups is necessary to be able to design preventive strategies to VZV infections in the future. To reach these goals, the proposed study is divided into two parts. The first part aims to determine…
