Our research focuses on the perturbed immune system in coronary artery disease. We study stress, inflammation and atherosclerosis in regard to the function and proportion of white blood cells.

The immune system in coronary artery disease

Our general aim is to increase the knowledge of the perturbed immune system in patients with coronary artery disease and thereby increase the possibility to identify new and more individualized diagnostics and therapies.

Methods used:

Molecular biology techniques, such as extraction of RNA/DNA, real time PCR and droplet digital PCR
Cell isolation and cell culture
Flow cytometry
ELISA
Methods for analysis of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs)
