1. DNA Compaction at Surfaces
Sammanfattning : The interfacial behavior of DNA and DNA-cationic surfactant has been studied. Particular attention was paid to the type of cationic surfactant and the DNA conformation (single or double stranded) as well as the DNA length. LÄS MER
2. Role of lipoprotein structure and dynamics in disease development : from atherosclerosis to Covid-19
Sammanfattning : Lipoproteins play a crucial role in lipid metabolism, serving as carriers for lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides in the bloodstream. Atherosclerosis is a complex cardiovascular disease characterized by the accumulation of cholesterol-rich plaques in arterial walls, leading to narrowed and hardened arteries. LÄS MER
3. Effects of gangliosides and PEG-lipids on the structure, properties and interactions of lipid self-assemblies
Sammanfattning : When developing or utilizing lipid-based nanocarriers detailed structural characterization of the lipid self-assemblies, as well as in depth knowledge and control of their interaction with solids materials, is necessary to understand the behaviour. Disregarding one of the parameters can lead to misinterpretation of the results due to non-uniform samples or experimental artifacts caused by undesirable interactions with solid surfaces. LÄS MER
4. Model Membranes and Their Interactions with Native and Artificial Lipoproteins
Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis arises from build-up of plaque in the blood, can result in cardiovascular disease and is the largest killer in the west. Low- and high-density lipoproteins are involved in the disease development by depositing and removing lipids to and from artery walls. LÄS MER
