  1. 21. OPEN LEARNING IN LIFE SCIENCES – Studies of open educational resources in animal welfare and work-based learning in food science

    Författare :Anne Algers; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; open educational resources; work-based learning; sustainable development; animal welfare; food quality; food science; cultural historical activity theory; design;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to explore ways of organising and supporting open learning in food science, food quality and animal welfare at the boundary between society, the university and other academic institutions. Two specific practices are explored, work-based learning (WBL) and the use of open educational resources (OER). LÄS MER

  3. 22. From a Road Less Travelled to a Worn Path: Three-Dimensional Tumour Models for Cancer Research and Therapeutics

    Författare :Atena Malakpour Permlid; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 3D tumour models; scaffold-based cultures; cancer cells; electrospun scaffolds; extracellular matrix; tumour microenvironment; high-throughput screening; animal-free; donor herd horse serum; fibroblasts;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is the second leading cause of death among both men and women worldwide. During therecent years, three-dimensional (3D) tumour models have gained increasing interest as a pre-clinicalplatform for screening of compounds for potential use in cancer therapy. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Experimental porcine models of retinal ischemia

    Författare :Håkan Morén; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; retinal ischemia; animal model; multifocal electroretinography; intraarterial coiling; retinal vasculature;

    Sammanfattning : Retinal ischaemia resulting from e.g. diabetes, vein thrombosis or arterial occlusion, is one of the major causes of visual impairment and blindness. Although new methods of treatment are being developed, there is still a need for more effective pharmacological forms of treatment. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Ischemic Cell Death in the CNS - applications of a new in vitro model

    Författare :Tobias Cronberg; Sektion IV; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuropsykologi; Neurologi; Neurology; astrocyte; stroke; adenosine; hyperglycaemia; glucose; free radicals; calcium; in vitro; brain ischemia; slice; neuropsychology; neurofysiologi; neurophysiology;

    Sammanfattning : Ischemic brain damage is a common cause of death and disability. A global ischemic insult is usually the result of a transient cardiac arrest while occlusion of cerebral blood vessels leads to focal ischemic lesions, commonly termed stroke. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Development and Resolution of Allergic Airway Inflammation in vivo: effects of therapeutic intervention

    Författare :Lena Uller; Lungbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Andningsorganen; Respiratory system; Medicin människa och djur ; Medicine human and vertebrates ; Animal models; Glucocorticoids; Eosinophils; Apoptosis; Asthma; Allergy;

    Sammanfattning : Eosinophils, containing tissue toxic granule proteins, are regarded a culprit cell in asthma pathogenesis. Using animal and human experimental models of asthma effects on eosinophilic airway inflammation were investigated in vivo. LÄS MER
