      Objective Copy number variation of the C4 complement components, C4A and C4B, has been associated with systemic inflammatory autoimmune diseases. This study was undertaken to investigate whether C4 copy number variation ...
    • Ectopic germinal center formation in Sjögren’s syndrome: Significance of lymphoid organization 

      Jonsson, Malin Viktoria (Doctoral thesis, 2006-06-23)
      Sjögren’s syndrom (SS) is an autoimmune, chronic inflammatory disorder predominantly affecting the salivary and lacrimal glands. The overall aim of this study was to determine clinicopathological features in human and ...
