6. Engineered extracellular vesicles for biomedical applications
Sammanfattning : Nature's very own nanoparticle, Extracellular vesicles (EVs), are lipid membrane-enclosed vesicles encapsulated with diverse biomolecules and are actively secreted by all cell types for intercellular communication. The unique properties of EVs, such as stability in circulation, biocompatibility, immune tolerance, and the ability to cross biological barriers, render EVs a next-generation drug delivery tool.

7. Extracellular matrix as a regulator of cell behavior : Biological effects of hyaluronan biosynthesis and catabolism
Sammanfattning : Extracellular matrix surrounding cells is an important regulator of cellular functions. Hyaluronan (HA) is a glycosaminoglyean and a constituent component of the extracellular matrix in all tissues. It is synthesized by hyaluronan syntheses (HAS) at the inner surface of cell membrane and degraded by hyaluronidases to small fragments. LÄS MER
8. Methods development for metaproteomics-guided bioprospecting of novel enzymes
Sammanfattning : Industrial biotechnology has been announced by several organizations and governments as a key enabling technology for the enhanced economic growth in a low-carbon and knowledge-based bioeconomy. An important goal to promote an environment friendly and sustainable industrial biotechnology is the discovery of new enzymes. LÄS MER
9. Crystallographic studies on redox enzymes containing the thioredoxin fold
Sammanfattning : Three-dimensional structures of two redox enzymes, glutathione peroxidase from human plasma and a protein disulfide oxidoreductase from the archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus, have been determined by X-ray crystallography. Glutathione peroxidases constitute a family of antioxidant seleno-enzymes that catalyze the reduction of a variety of hydroperoxides. LÄS MER
10. Apolipoprotein E and cholinergic enzymes : the interface in dementia
Sammanfattning : The main confirmed genetic risk factor for sporadic form of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is apolipoprotein E (ApoE) ε4 allele (APOE4). ApoE protein aids in receptor ligand mediated transport, distribution and metabolism of fatty acids and cholesterol. LÄS MER
