  1. 36. Polypeptide Conjugates as High-affinity Binders for Proteins

    Författare :Lotta Tollstoy Tegler; Lars Baltzer; Amelie Eriksson Karlström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein recognition; polypeptide conjugates; peptide; molecular interactions; C-reactive protein; Acetylcholine esterase; Human Carboinc anhydrase; Chemistry; Kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : A novel concept for protein recognition has been developed. The recognition unit is a hybrid molecule obtained by conjugation of a small organic molecule to a synthetic polypeptide selected from a 16-membered set of 42 amino acid residue sequences. The sequences are unordered and have no prior relation to the target proteins. LÄS MER

  2. 37. Targeting Biological Systems by Organic Synthesis Methods - Cancer Cells and Proteins

    Författare :Cecilia Winander; Lars Baltzer; Stefan Sjöberg; Jörgen Carlsson; Vladimir Tolmachev; Thomas Schrader; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Organic chemistry; carborane; doxorubicin; 125I; molecular recognition; four-helix bundle; polypeptide conjugate; affinity; chitinase; acetylcholine esterase; Organisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the design and synthesis of molecules with potential roles in biomedicine, with an emphasis on molecular recognition in complex biological environments. The first chapter describes the synthesis and evaluation of compounds for use in nuclide therapy. LÄS MER

  3. 38. Development of in vitro and ex vivo positron-emitting tracer techniques and their application to neurotrauma

    Författare :Sven Sihver; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neurosciences; Short-lived radionuclides; in vitro receptor binding; in vitro and ex vivo autoradiography; positron emission tomography; benzodiazepine; muscarinic acetylcholine; and NMDA receptors in CNS; experimental neurotrauma; Neurovetenskap; Neurology; Neurologi; medicinsk farmakologi; Medical Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : The use of positron-emitting tracers has been extended beyond tomographic facilities in the last few years, giving rise to a general positron-emitting tracing technique. The methodological part of the present thesis involved the evaluation of the performance of storage phosphor (SP) plates, with tracers labeled with high-energy, short-lived, positron-emitting radionuclides, using homogenized tissue specimens and autoradiography with frozen brain sections.

  4. 39. Effects of ethanol on muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in nerve cells

    Författare :Murielle Hellsten Caron; Institutionen för laboratoriemedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Klinisk kemi; Clinical chemistry; nerve cell; SH-SY5Y; NOS; PKC; PLC; Ethanol; mAChR;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focused on the mechanisms involved in the effects of long-term ethanol treatment on mAChRs and their coupled-signal transduction pathway in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. All 5 subtypes of mAChRs were expressed in these cells. LÄS MER

  5. 40. Mechanisms of muscarinic feedback regulation of acetylcholine release in rat hippocampus : an in vitro study

    Författare :Öie Nordström; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The present study on dilute suspensions of synaptosomes from rat hippocampus yields evidence that feedback regulation of acetylcholine release in this preparation is exerted by a muscarinic autoreceptor localized on the cholinergic nerve ending itself.A possible model for the sequence of events which may take place at the cholinergic nerve ending is presented.
