Svensson P, Englund M, Snackestrand M, Hagg D, Ohlsson B, Stemme V, et al.
BMC Cardiovasc Disord . 2005 Aug; 5:25. PMID: 16122381
Background: The protective role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the cardiovascular system is related to its role in the reverse transport of cholesterol from the arterial wall to the liver...

Hagg D, Englund M, Jernas M, Schmidt C, Wiklund O, Mattsson Hulten L, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2005 Jul; 185(2):282-9. PMID: 16046214
Using DNA microarray analysis, we found that human macrophages respond to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) by activating the antioxidative glutathione and thioredoxin systems. Several genes of the glutathione and thioredoxin...

Svensson P, Asea A, Englund M, Bausero M, Jernas M, Wiklund O, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2005 Jul; 185(1):32-8. PMID: 15993884
Lipid accumulation and inflammation are key hallmarks of the atherosclerotic plaque and macrophage uptake of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is believed to drive these processes. Initial experiments show that supernatants...

Svensson P, Hagg D, Jernas M, Englund M, Mattsson Hulten L, Ohlsson B, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2004 Nov; 177(2):287-90. PMID: 15530901
Identification of cell and tissue specific genes may provide novel insights to signaling systems and functions. Macrophages play a key role in many diseases including atherosclerosis. Using DNA microarrays we...

Rydberg E, Krettek A, Ullstrom C, Ekstrom K, Svensson P, Carlsson L, et al.
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol . 2004 Sep; 24(11):2040-5. PMID: 15358603
Objective: Macrophage-mediated oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) by enzymes, such as the lipoxygenases, is considered of major importance for the formation of oxidized LDL during atherogenesis. Macrophages have been identified...

Rydberg E, Salomonsson L, Mattsson Hulten L, Noren K, Bondjers G, Wiklund O, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2003 Nov; 170(2):245-52. PMID: 14612204
Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a chemotactic factor for T-lymphocytes and smooth muscle cells and may therefore have an important effect in atherogenesis. It is secreted from oxysterol-containing foam cells which have...

Salomonsson L, Svensson L, Pettersson S, Wiklund O, Ohlsson B
Atherosclerosis . 2003 Aug; 169(2):259-67. PMID: 12921977
Monocyte infiltration followed by differentiation into macrophages and accumulation of oxidised LDL (oxLDL) comprise early stages of atherosclerosis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is upregulated by oxLDL, may contribute...

Svensson P, Englund M, Markstrom E, Ohlsson B, Jernas M, Billig H, et al.
Atherosclerosis . 2003 Jul; 169(1):71-6. PMID: 12860252
Accumulation of lipids and cholesterol by macrophages and subsequent transformation into foam cells are key features in development of atherosclerosis. Serum copper concentrations have been shown to be associated with...

Haversen L, Ohlsson B, Hahn-Zoric M, Hanson L, Mattsby-Baltzer I
Cell Immunol . 2003 Mar; 220(2):83-95. PMID: 12657243
Lactoferrin, a glycoprotein present in milk, mucosal secretions and neutrophils contributes to host defense. We have previously shown that orally given milk lactoferrin (LF) mediates anti-infectious and anti-inflammatory activities in...
