The complement system and the CD14/TLR4/MD2 complex as targets for therapy in sepsis.

Prosjektet tar sikte på å utvikle et nytt terapeutisk regime ved tilstander hvor det medfødte immunapparatet er over-aktivert og gir opphav til alvorlig sykdom, slik man ser det ved sepsis (blodforgiftning). Vi har i tidligere studier vist at hemming av to viktige grener av immunapparatet, komple...
