Investigation of T cell driven arthritis induced by mannan in ZAP70 mutated SKG mice
(2016-08-10)
Autoimmune diseases are particularly challenging to study in human due to their complex multifactorial nature. In rheumatoid arthritis (RA), self-reactivity directed against joints leads to pain, tissue destruction and ...
Genetic dissection of experimental arthritis in the DA rat
(2005-01-28)
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting peripheral joints. Persistent inflammation causes cartilage deterioration with severe joint deformations as a consequence. The etiology is largely unknown ...
Genetic and immunological studies of experimental arthritis, with emphasis on a novel C-type lectin receptor gene complex
(2009-03-05)
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune syndrome primarily affecting peripheral joints. The etiology of RA is largely unknown but complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors contribute ...
Quantitative sensory testing, obstructive sleep apnea and peripheral nervous lesions
(2006-05-26)
In diagnosis of peripheral neuropathies, quantitative sensory testing (QST) is used to assess thermal and vibration sensitivity. QST is a psychophysical method susceptible to the influence of several factors. It is important ...
