1. 6. Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours - Disease models, tumour development, and remedy

   Författare :Tobias Hofving; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; neuroendocrine tumours; tumour models; SMAD4; 177Lu-octreotate therapy; immunotherapy;

   Sammanfattning : Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumours (SINETs) are malignant neoplasms which at the time of diagnosis often present with distant metastasis. The field of SINET research faces several challenges. LÄS MER

3. 7. Antibody- and Peptide-based Immunotherapies : Proof-of-concept and safety considerations

   Författare :Erika Fletcher; Sara Mangsbo; Vivianne Malmström; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immune complex; conjugat; vaccine; CD40; whole blood; cytokine release syndrome; Immunologi; Immunology;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of cancer immunotherapy is to eradicate tumours by inducing a tumour-specific immune response. This thesis focuses on how antibodies and peptides can improve antigen presentation and the subsequent tumour-specific T cell response. Tumour recognition by the immune system can be promoted through delivery of antigen in the form of a vaccine. LÄS MER

4. 8. Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, focusing on Epstein-Barr-virus, programmed cell death ligand 1 and serum lipoproteins

5. 9. The immunomodulatory properties of C-Med 100 an extract of the plant Uncaria tomentosa

   Författare :Christina Silver; Diabetes - immunovirologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi; serology; Immunology; survival; proliferation; inhibition; NF-kB; Uncaria tomentosa; quinic acid;

   Sammanfattning : Extracts from the bark of the vine Uncaria tomentosa have anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antimutagenic and antioxidant effects. In this study, we evaluate the effects of an Uncaria tomentosa extract, denoted C-Med 100, on the cellular level of the immune system both in vivo and in vitro. LÄS MER

7. 10. Exploring medical applications of a bioactive polymer

   Författare :Felix Sellberg; David Berglund; Buddy Ratner; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bioactive polymer; oncology; immunology; radiology; ischemia; translational research;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis, we have studied a polymeric compound called PVAC, designed as a scavenger of reactive electrophilic substances. We explored several diseases where these substances are overproduced.In Paper I, adhesion formation was induced via bowel anastomosis surgery in rats. LÄS MER
