  1. 21. Identification and evaluation of antiviral compounds targeting Rift Valley fever virus

    Författare :Koushikul Islam; Clas Ahlm; Magnus Evander; Anna K. Överby; Johan Neyts; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Rift Valley fever virus; antiviral; assay development; screening; drug discovery;

    Sammanfattning : Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV), a negative-stranded RNA virus, is the etiological agent of the vector-borne zoonotic disease Rift Valley fever (RVF). RVFV causes significant morbidity and mortality in humans and livestock throughout Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Application of In Vitro Chemosensitivity Testing for Evaluation of New Cytotoxic Drugs in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia

    Författare :Anna Åleskog; Jan Liliemark; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical drug development; chronic lymphocytic leukaemia; cytotoxicity; in vitro assay; cytotoxic drug development; CHS 828; IgVH mutation status; Klinisk läkemedelsutveckling; Pharmaceutical chemistry; Läkemedelskemi; Clinical Pharmacology; klinisk farmakologi;

    Sammanfattning : Despite major advances in the understanding of the biology of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL), progress in improving its treatment has been limited and it still remains an incurable disorder. In the present research, we have performed in vitro drug sensitivity testing of primary CLL cells for preclinical evaluation of cytotoxic drugs, using the fluorometric microculture cytotoxicity assay (FMCA).

  3. 23. Antibody based plasma protein profiling

    Författare :Ulrika Qundos; Jochen M. Schwenk; Peter Nilsson; Mathias Uhlén; Ulrike Korf; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; protein profiling; plasma; antibody; affinity proteomics; biomark- ers; multiplex; assay development;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about protein profiling in serum and plasma using antibody suspension bead arrays for the analysis of biobanked samples and in the context of prostate cancer biomarker discovery. The influence of sample preparation methods on antibody based protein profiles were investigated (Papers I-III) and a prostate cancer candidate biomarker identified and verified (Papers III-V).

  4. 24. Development and application of new methods for anticancer drug discovery and early evaluation

    Författare :Sumeer Dhar; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; Drug development; tumor cell lines; cytotoxic drugs; neural network; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; klinisk farmakologi; Clinical Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : A non-clonogenic assay using the redox dye Alamar Blue and primary human tumor cells (PHTC) from patients and human tumor cell lines (HTCL) was established for rapid screening and evaluation of anticancer drugs. PHTC cultures from chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and ovarian carcinoma (Ovca) were compared with renal carcinoma (ACHN) and lymphocytic (CCRF-CEM) HTLCs in response to 63 toxic or non-toxic compounds.

    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; in situ; proximity ligation assay PLA ; strand displacement; proximity-dependent initiation of hybridisation chain reaction proxHCR ; protein complexes; rolling circle amplification RCA ; MolBoolean; vitamin D; 1; 25D3-MARRS receptor; PDIA3; ERp57; CYP24A1; c-Myc; prostate cancer; Molekylär cellbiologi; Molecular Cellbiology; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Biological processes take place through interactions between macromolecules, such as nucleic acids and proteins. It is, therefore, fundamental to understand the functions of proteins and how they form complexes in order to carry out their role. LÄS MER
