16. MOLECULAR ASPECTS OF ENDOTHELIAL CELL FUNCTION AND HYPOXIA-DEPENDENT TUMOR ANGIOGENESIS
Sammanfattning : Hypoxia, or deficient oxygen levels, is an inherent feature of rapidly expanding tumor tissue. In order to survive in the hostile, hypoxic environment and to restore the supply of oxygen and nutrients tumor cells activate a variety of adaptive mechanisms. Among them, hypoxia-induced angiogenesis, i.e. LÄS MER
17. The release of histone proteins from cells via extracellular vesicles
Sammanfattning : Histones are chromatin-associated proteins localized to the nucleus. However, extracellular histones are present in biofluids from healthy individuals and become elevated under disease conditions, such as neurodegeneration and cancer. LÄS MER
18. Prostasomes as Diagnostic, Prognostic and Therapeutic Vesicles
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores prostasomes and their ability to be used as a new diagnostic tool for prostate cancer. Alongside diagnosis, this thesis also suggests prostasomes as a tool for prognosis and therapeutic treatment in patients with prostate cancer. LÄS MER
19. α-Synuclein Fibril Formation and the Effects of Lipid Membranes
Sammanfattning : Amyloid protein aggregation results in major disturbances of cellular processes in humans. The most common amyloid-related disorders are Alzheimer´s disease and Parkinson´s disease. Parkinson´s disease is charaterized by the formation of protein-rich aggregates that are deposited in neurons, termed Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. LÄS MER
20. Extracellular Vesicles and RNA interference in tumors
Sammanfattning : Extracellular vesicles (EVs) including apoptotic bodies (ABs), microvesicles (MVs), exosomes (EXOs) and cell derived artificial nanovesicles (NVs) are important mediators of cell-to-cell communication, in part by transferring bioactive molecules such as DNA, mRNA, miRNA, siRNA, proteins, and lipids. These EVs are released by many cell types, including melanoma cells, and are found in many body fluids. LÄS MER
