  1. 1. Preclinical tumor-immune modeling : For the identification of immunomodulatory drugs

    Författare :Tove Selvin; Mårten Fryknäs; Rolf Larsson; Claes Andersson; Malin Jarvius; Brinton Seashore-Ludlow; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immuno-oncology; anti-cancer drugs; preclinical modeling; drug screening; repurposing;

    Sammanfattning : For a long time, the field of cancer research was dominated by a tumor cell-centric view. That, however, changed once it became recognized that medical cancer treatment is largely influenced by the combined effect exerted on both cancer and immune cells. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Modeling glioblastoma heterogeneity to decipher its biology

    Författare :Yuan Xie; Lene Uhrbom; Massimo Squatrito; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glioblastoma multiforme; biobank; GBM cells; cell of origin; LGR5; OPCs;

    Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common and lethal form of primary brain tumor that mainly affects adults. GBM displays remarkable intra- and inter-tumoral heterogeneity and contains a subpopulation of cells named glioma stem cells that is believed to be responsible for tumor maintenance, progression and recurrence.

  4. 3. Utilizing Biopolymers in 3D Tumor Modeling and Tumor Diagnosis

    Författare :Negar Abbasi Aval; Torbjörn Pettersson; Aman Russom; Maria Tenje; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 3D tumor modeling; Spheroids; Cellulose Nano Fibrils; Layer by Layer; Extracellular matrix; Circulating Tumor Capturing; Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma PDAC ; 3D-tumörmodellering; Sfärer; Cellulosa; Lager-på-lager; Extracellulärmatris; Infångning av cirkulerande tumörceller; Mänskliga Duktala Adenocarcinom-Hepatocyter; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer represents a significant global public health challenge and ranks as the second mostcommon cause of death in the United States. The onset of cancer entails an initial phasewhere cells lose their polarity and disconnect from the normal basement membrane, allowingthem to form distinct three-dimensional (3D) configurations that interact with adjacent cellsand the surrounding microenvironment.

  5. 4. Quantitative analysis of tumor growth and response to therapy

    Författare :Esmaeil Mehrara; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; tumor; growth; response; therapy; modeling; clinical;

    Sammanfattning : Modeling the natural growth of tumors is of value for evaluation of tumor progression and optimization of treatment strategies. However, modeling tumor growth based on clinical data is hampered by the limited data available, since therapy is in general initiated as early as possible after diagnosis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modeling of dose and sensitivity heterogeneities in radiation therapy

    Författare :Kristin Wiklund; Bengt K. Lind; Iuliana Toma-Dasu; Marco Zaider; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Monte Carlo simulations; Tumor control probability; Modeling; Beam characterization; Medical Radiation Physics; medicinsk strålningsfysik;

    Sammanfattning : The increased interest in the use of light ion therapy is due to the high dose conformity to the target and the dense energy deposition along the tracks resulting in increased relative biological effectiveness compared to conventional radiation therapy. In spite of the good clinical experience, fundamental research on the characteristics of the ion beams is still needed in order to be able to fully explore their use. LÄS MER
