Abstract:
Autoimmune diseases (AID) are chronic inflammatory diseases (CID) mediated by selfreactive T and B cells and are generally the results of the breakdown of T cell tolerance to self-antigen and failure of peripheral regulatory mechanisms. In this thesis I studied different mechanisms controlling the development of CIDs. I investigated the initial events involved in the activation of self-reactive CD4+ T cells which mediate the destruction of the thyroid in a mouse model of spontaneous thyroiditis.

Abstract:
Inflammation is a central component of the immune response. In its acute form it aids the transition from disease to health via the activation of numerous immune cells, enabling them to reach the site of infection/injury and orchestrate themselves to combat pathogens, facilitating resolution and repair to restore the host to health. However, chronic inflammation is deleterious to the host and differs from the “classical” acute inflammatory process in that the inflammation is not necessarily so readily obvious and is not self-limiting; rather, the immune system is in a constant state of low-gra

Infection by Chlamydia trachomatis is the leading cause of tubal disease and accounts for a significant proportion of the physical, psychosocial and economic burden of infertility.

However, not all infected women develop tubal pathology, possibly due to inherent host-specific and environment-induced differences in immune response.

Abstract:
Inflammation is an integral part of the body defense mechanism that occurs in vascularized tissue in response to harmful stimuli that is perceived as being a threat to tissue homeostasis. It is a complex physiological host response that is designed to neutralize and eliminate harmful agents, initiate tissue healing, and orchestrate a return to tissue homeostasis. While inflammation is designed to be an acute event that resolves following the elimination of harmful stimuli and tissue healing, there are instances where inflammation fails to resolve and instead evolves into chronic inflammation

Interestingly, in healing ulcers, proteins associated with dampening inflammation did not change over time whilst those keeping the wound in an inflammatory state decreased, suggesting an alternative mechanism for resolution of inflammation.
