  1. 1. Expression of multidrug resistance genes and proteins and effect of selenite in anthracycline-resistant human tumor cell lines

    Författare :Kerstin Jönsson Videsäter; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Multidrug resistance; cross-resistance profile; ATP-bioluminescence assay; pglycoprotein; MRP1; selenium; thioredoxin reductase; glutathione reductase.;

    Sammanfattning : Treatment failure due to development of drug resistance is a serious complication in cancer treatment and the major cause of death in these patients. This thesis has focused on to gain knowledge about the mechanisms of multidrug resistance and to establish in vitro methods to characterize the resistant tumor cell phenotype. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Towards a New Generation of Anti-HIV Drugs : Interaction Kinetic Analysis of Enzyme Inhibitors Using SPR-biosensors

    Författare :Malin Elinder; U. Helena Danielson; Maurizio Botta; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; drug discovery; fragment; screening; reverse transcriptase; microbicides; interaction analysis; NNRTIs; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Sammanfattning : As of today, there are 25 drugs approved for the treatment of HIV and AIDS. Nevertheless, HIV continues to infect and kill millions of people every year. Despite intensive research efforts, both a vaccine and a cure remain elusive and the long term efficacy of existing drugs is limited by the development of resistant HIV strains. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Design and Synthesis of Hepatitis C Virus NS3 Protease Inhibitors : Targeting Different Genotypes and Drug-Resistant Variants

    Författare :Anna Karin Belfrage; Anja Sandström; Ulf Ellervik; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; hepatitis C virus; HCV; NS3 protease inhibitors; structure-activity relationship; 2 1H -pyrazinone; quinazoline; resistance; Pd catalysis; Medicinal Chemistry; Läkemedelskemi; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Sammanfattning : Since the first approved hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3 protease inhibitors in 2011, numerous direct acting antivirals (DAAs) have reached late stages of clinical trials. Today, several combination therapies, based on different DAAs, with or without the need of pegylated interferon-α injection, are available for chronic HCV infections. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Deradicalising Giardiasis Treatment

    Författare :Sascha Krakovka; Staffan Svärd; Jon Jerlström-Hultqvist; Norbert Müller; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Giardia intestinalis is a unicellular parasite causing the disease giardiasis. This disease is mostly prevalent in low resource settings, mandating low-cost treatment options. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Circumventing drug resistance : Studies exploring the expediency of a total cell kill chemoresistance assay

    Författare :Bertil Jonsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; drug resistance; drug resistance assay; clinical correlations; cancer; human; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; klinisk farmakologi; Clinical Pharmacology;

    Sammanfattning : Cellular resistance to anti-cancer drugs is considered to be the major cause of treatment failure in clinical practice. The present studies have therefore focused on ways to circumvent resistance as evaluated by an in vitro chemoresistance assay. LÄS MER
