  1. 11. Enhancing the therapeutic effect of biological drugs with protein engineering : Focusing on pre-clinical Alzheimer’s disease therapy

    Författare :Fadi Rofo; Greta Hultqvist; Stina Syvänen; Sara Mangsbo; Joy Zuchero; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer’s disease; amyloid-beta; blood-brain barrier; transferrin receptor; protein-drugs; multivalent-bispecific antibodies;

    Sammanfattning : Aggregation of the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) is one of the main pathological hallmarks in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The soluble Aβ aggregates (oligomers and protofibrils) have shown to be the most harmful species. Hence, targeting these aggregates can be of therapeutic potential. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Visualising neurodegeneration in the living brain : Preclinical evaluation of PET radioligands

    Författare :Mengfei Xiong; Stina Syvänen; Sahar Roshanbin; Joakim Bergström; Per Borghammer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Positron emission tomography PET ; Alzheimer s disease; Parkinson s disease; SV2A; neurodegeneration; immunotherapy; transgenic mice; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science; Analytical Chemistry; Analytisk kemi; Pharmacology; Farmakologi; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : With an ageing population, the number of people suffering from Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) escalates yearly. Pathological hallmarks of AD and PD include aggregated proteins and synaptic dysfunction. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Preclinical PET imaging of Alzheimer's disease progression

    Författare :Xiaotian T. Fang; Stina Syvänen; Dag Sehlin; Lars Lannfelt; Merja Haaparanta-Solin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alzheimer s disease; transgenic mice; PET; antibody-based tracer; mGluR5; ABP688; di-scFv; amyloid-β;

    Sammanfattning : Amyloid PET imaging with [11C]PIB enabled detection of Aβ for the first time in vivo. However, [11C]PIB is a small molecule that binds only the insoluble Aβ plaque. Rather, the soluble Aβ aggregates are considered the cause of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). LÄS MER

  5. 14. Phenotypic antibody discovery and mining of complex antibody libraries

    Författare :Anne Ljungars; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibody discovery; Phage display; Phenotypic screening; Cell selection; Deep mining; Complex phage pools;

    Sammanfattning : Therapeutic antibodies are the fastest growing class of drugs but suffer from a crowded target-space where many antibodies, against a few targets, are developed in parallel. The aim of this thesis is to find methods to enable discovery of novel antibody-target combinations and thereby increase the target-space. LÄS MER

  7. 15. The ADAPT scaffold as a tool for diagnostic imaging and targeted therapy

    Författare :Emma von Witting; Sophia Hober; Inger Sandlie; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Protein G; ABD; ADAPT; affinity proteins; antibody; protein engineering; targeted therapy; nuclear medicine; molecular imaging; HER2; radionuclide therapy; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Sammanfattning : Molecular recognition, or the specific interactions between a protein and its ligand, is central to biology and a key factor for many different clinical and technical applications. Despite antibodies being only one of many different affinity proteins, it has by far been the most successful. LÄS MER
