  1. 1. The Round Window Membrane - Gateway to the Cochlea : A Morphological and Electrophysiological study

    Författare :Leif Nordang; Sten Hellström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Otorhinolaryngology; round window membrane; pseudomonas exotoxin; auditory brainstem response; hearing loss; endolymphatic sac; inner ear immunology; glutamate; nitric oxide inhibitor; glucocorticoid.; Otorhinolaryngologi; Otorhinolaryngology; Otorhinolaryngologi; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : Topical treatment of several inner ear diseases through the round window membrane (RWM) might be feasible in the near future. Bacteria toxins, ototoxic drugs and noise trauma seem to harm the inner ear by a common pathway which involves, excessive outflow of the afferent neurotransmitter glutamate and formation of nitric oxide (NO), which can severely damage cells/nerve endings and lead to cell death.

  3. 2. Tumor targeted delivery of cytotoxic payloads using affibody molecules and ABD-derived affinity proteins

    Författare :Hao Liu; Torbjörn Gräslund; Stefan Ståhl; Nick Devoogdt; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Targeted tumor therapy; immunotoxins; ADCs; affibody molecule; ADAPT; pseudomonas exotoxin A; maytansinoid; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer treatment cost billions of dollars every year, but the mortality rate is still high. An ideal treatment is the so-called “magic bullets” that recognize and kill tumor cells while leaving normal cells untouched. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Time-related Aspects of Otoprotection : Experimental Studies in Rat

    Författare :Adnan Lidian; Matti Anniko; Petri Olivius; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :sensorineural hearing loss; Edaravone; brain-derived neurotrophic factor; auditory brainstem response; Sprague-Dawley rat; distortion product otoacoustic emission; Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A.; Oto-Rhino-Laryngology; Oto-rhino-laryngologi;

    Sammanfattning : Intratympanic injection of various otoprotectants through the round window membrane (RWM) might become available in the near future as an alternative to the currently available medical and surgical methods used to treat several inner ear diseases. The most common outcome of such diseases is sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL). LÄS MER

  5. 4. Targeting HER2-expressing tumors with potent drug conjugates and fusion toxins based on scaffold proteins

    Författare :Haozhong Ding; Torbjörn Gräslund; Stefan Ståhl; Harald Kolmar; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Targeted therapy; affibody molecules; ADAPT molecules; AffiDC; fusion toxins; HER2; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Targeted therapy is an emerging treatment for a variety of cancers. Small- sized scaffold proteins are an alternative to conventional antibody-based targeting molecules. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Engineering of alternative scaffold derived drug conjugates and fusion-toxins for targeted cancer therapy

    Författare :Wen Yin; Torbjörn Gräslund; Serge Muyldermans; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HER2; Affibody; Cancer; ADAPT; Protein engineering; PE38; DM1; MMAE; MMAF; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a major health problem, with premature death for many patients, and with a high monetary cost to society. The disease is complex to treat due to the many different types, but also because the disease-causing cells, that needs to be removed, are very similar to the normal cells. LÄS MER
