  1. 1. Exploring medical applications of a bioactive polymer

    Författare :Felix Sellberg; David Berglund; Buddy Ratner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bioactive polymer; oncology; immunology; radiology; ischemia; translational research;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we have studied a polymeric compound called PVAC, designed as a scavenger of reactive electrophilic substances. We explored several diseases where these substances are overproduced.In Paper I, adhesion formation was induced via bowel anastomosis surgery in rats. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) is widely used as an oncolytic agent for cancer therapy. However, its infectivity is highly dependent on the expression level of coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) on the surface of tumor cells. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Size determination of hyaluronan and multivariate analysis of amyloid prone proteins

    Författare :Linus Malm; Göran Larsson; Henrik Antti; Mary Cowman; Umeå universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : High-throughput drug screening (HTS) in live cells is often a vital part of the preclinical anticancer drug discovery process. So far, two-dimensional (2D) monolayer cell cultures have been the most prevalent model in HTS endeavors. However, 2D cell cultures often fail to recapitulate the complex microenvironments of in vivo tumors. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Toward celiac-safe foods - Investigation of the interaction between transglutaminase 2 and gluten

    Författare :Niklas Engström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Sammanfattning : Celiac disease, a chronic autoimmune enteropathy, may develop in genetically predisposed individuals upon ingestion of gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. Overall prevalence of celiac disease is increasing and it currently affects around 1% of the population. LÄS MER
