    Sammanfattning : Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a disease with epidemic proportions due to increased incidences worldwide, persistence of undiagnosed cases, uncontrolled forms of the disease, association with cardiovascular complications, and lack of definitive treatment options. In particular, type 2 DM (T2DM) is placing an enormous financial burden on worldwide healthcare systems that will increase in the futureThere is a need to develop physiological assay platforms that provide functionally relevant models of diabetes in order to accelerate the discovery of new treatments.

  2. 2. Development and optimization of a 3D in vitro model for osteogenic biomaterial evaluation

    Författare :Luis Oliveros Anerillas; Peyman Kelk; Paul J. Kingham; Mikko Lammi; Jöns Hilborn; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; angiogenesis; biomaterial; bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells; bone regeneration; hydrogel; osteoinduction; osteogenesis; scaffold; type I collagen; 3D culture; biology; biologi; biomedical laboratory science; biomedicinsk laboratorievetenskap; Medical Cell Biology; medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Despite the innate regenerative capabilities of bone tissue, self-repair is impaired when an injury exceeds the critical size threshold because of trauma, congenital, or pathological conditions. Autologous transplantation is the gold standard to reconstruct large bone defects. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : This thesis demonstrates the use of electrospinning and the novel properties of electrospunmaterials in two fields.The microelectronics industry has identified thermal interface materials as one of themajor bottlenecks hindering further integration at packaging level. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Studies on various culture systems for chondrocytes and osteoblasts

    Författare :Juha Prittinen; Mikko Lammi; Minna Kellomäki; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; chondrocyte; osteoarthritis; surface materials; topography; tissue engineering; mechanical stimulation; Medical Cell Biology; medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Osteoarthritis and osteochondral defects are ailments that are increasing in frequency as the lifespan of the population increases and sedentary lifestyle becomes more common. Osteoarthritis is an inflammatory disease that causes the progressive degeneration of articular surfaces and the underlying bone. LÄS MER

    Författare :Paul O'Callaghan; Xiao Zhang; Lars Lannfelt; Jeremy Turnbull; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer’s disease; amyloidosis; amyloid-β; apolipoprotein E; astrocytes; glia; heparanase; heparan sulfate; heparan sulfate proteoglycans; microglia; neuroinflammation; Geriatrics; Geriatrik; Cellforskning; Cell Research; Neuroscience; Neurovetenskap; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, with extensive evidence implicating the misfolding, aggregation and deposition of the amyloid-β (Aβ) peptide as central to the pathogenesis. Heparan sulfate (HS) is an interactive glycosaminoglycan, attached to core proteins as HS proteoglycans (HSPGs). LÄS MER
