  1. 31. Interactions between platelets and complement with implications for the regulation at surfaces

    Författare :Per H. Nilsson; Kristina Nilsson Ekdahl; John Lambris; Ian Nicholls; Berhane Ghebrehiwet; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; complement system activation; regulation ; platelets activation; regulation ; biomaterials; biocompatibility; chondroitin sulfate-A; apyrase; C1q; C3; factor H; C4BP; ADP; Biomedical Sciences; Biomedicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Disturbances of host integrity have the potential to evoke activation of innate immunologic and hemostatic protection mechanisms in blood. Irrespective of whether the activating stimulus is typically immunogenic or thrombotic, it will generally affect both the complement system and platelets to a certain degree. LÄS MER

  3. 32. Hierarchical Assembly Investigations and Multiscale Characterization of Protein-based Materials : Insights from Whey Protein Nanofibrils and Recombinant Spider Silk Microspheres

    Författare :Eirini Ornithopoulou; My Hedhammar; Thomas Crouzier; Christina Divne; Tim Melander Bowden; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hierarchical Assembly; Protein-based materials; Whey Protein Nanofibrils; β-Lactoglobulin; Recombinant Spider Silk; Microspheres; Biomedical Applications; Surface Biofunctionalization; Hierarkisk montering; Proteinbaserade material; Vassleprotein nanofibriller; β-Laktoglobulin; Rekombinant spindelsilke Mikrosfärer; Biomedicinska tillämpningar; Ytbiokonjugering; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Protein-based materials, with their unique properties of combining high strength, while maintaining elasticity, and their inherent biocompatibility, hold immense potential for various applications. In order to harness these properties, we need to understand and control how protein building blocks come together to form hierarchically structured materials. LÄS MER

  4. 33. The Immune Response to One-Lung Ventilation : Clinical and Experimental Studies

    Författare :Thomas Schilling; Göran Hedenstierna; Hans Hedenström; Thomas Hachenberg; Sven-Erik Ricksten; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; One-lung ventilation; open thoracic surgery; ventilation-induced lung injury; alveolar immune response; bronchoalveolar lavage; propofol; desflurane; cytokines; animal model; mRNA; RT-PCR; Medical laboratory science; Medicinsk laboratorievetenskap; anestesiologi; Anaesthesiology;

    Sammanfattning : One-lung ventilation (OLV) as an established procedure during thoracic surgery may be injurious in terms of increased mechanical stress characterised by alveolar cell stretch and overdistension, increased cyclic tidal recruitment of alveolar units, compression of alveolar vessels and increased pulmonary vascular resistance. This may result in ventilation-induced lung injury with pro-inflammatory cytokine production, leukocyte recruitment and neutrophil-dependent tissue destruction. LÄS MER

    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Controlled release; geopolymer; sol-gel; opioid; oral administration; oral dosage form; implant; titanium; hydroxyapatite; infection; strontium carbonate; strontium; Functional materials; Funktionella material; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials;

    Sammanfattning : Ceramics are distinguished from metals and polymers by their inorganic nature and lack of metallic properties. They can be highly crystalline to amorphous, and their physical and chemical properties can vary widely. LÄS MER

  7. 35. Thiol-Ene CHemistry and Dopa-Functional Materials towards Biomedical Applications

    Författare :Kristina Olofsson; Anders Hult; Michael Malkoch; Anders Daugaard; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Thiol-ene chemistry; DOPA; biomedical; UV; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Thiol-ene chemistry is versatile and efficient and can be used as a powerful tool in polymer synthesis. In this thesis, the concept of thiol-ene chemistry has been central, where it has been explored as a tool for the synthesis of well-defined hydrogels and dopa-functional materials towards biomedical applications; such as hydrogels, primers for adhesive fixation of bone fractures, self-healing gels, and micelles for drug-delivery.
