   Sammanfattning : Adenovirus serotype 5 (Ad5) is widely used as an oncolytic agent for cancer therapy. However, its infectivity is highly dependent on the expression level of coxsackievirus-adenovirus receptor (CAR) on the surface of tumor cells. LÄS MER

3. 12. Retroviral gene transfer to repopulating hematopoietic cells

   Författare :Thomas Relander; Tumörmikromiljö; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; GLVR-1; VSV-G; amphotropic; GALV; long-term bone marrow culture; NOD SCID; retroviral vector; hematopoietic stem cells; stem cells; gene transfer; gene therapy; fibronectin; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik;

   Sammanfattning : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have the capacity to maintain hematopoiesis throughout life. HSCs are ideal targets for permanent gene transfer, as the transgene will be expressed in all the progeny of the gene-modified stem cells. LÄS MER

4. 13. Enhancing neuronal inhibition by cell and gene therapy as a novel treatment for Epilepsy

   Författare :Ana Gonzalez Ramos; Epilepsicentrum; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Epilepsy; Interneurons; GABA; Human pluripotent stem cells; Cell therapy; Gene therapy; Chemogenetics; Hippocampus; TLE; Cntnap2;

   Sammanfattning : Epilepsy is a family of heterogeneous and multifactorial neurological disorders, unified by the occurrence of spontaneous recurrent seizures. Overall, it affects 50 million people worldwide of all ages and genders. LÄS MER

5. 14. Chitosan Polyplexes as Non-Viral Gene Delivery Systems : Structure-Property Relationships and In Vivo Efficiency

   Författare :Magnus Köping-Höggård; Per Artursson; Jean-Paul Behr; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmaceutics; gene therapy; gene delivery; non-viral; polyplex; chitosan; chitosan oligomers; polyethylenimine; plasmid DNA; lung; Galenisk farmaci; Pharmaceutics; Galenisk farmaci;

   Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis was to develop and optimize delivery systems for plasmid DNA (pDNA) based on biocompatible polymers, in particular chitosan, suitable for non-viral gene therapy. At the onset of this thesis, studies had reported conflicting results on the efficiency of chitosan-based gene delivery systems. LÄS MER

7. 15. Gene therapy for epilepsy: resculpturing synaptic transmission with neuropeptides

   Författare :Andreas Toft Sörensen; Experimentell Epilepsi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LTP; synaptic plasticity; synaptic transmission; electrophysiology; Y5 receptor; Y2 receptor; neuropeptide Y NPY ; hippocampus; gene therapy; epilepsy; memory; activity-dependent release; volume transmission;

   Sammanfattning : Intractable seizures and lack of effective antiepileptic drugs (AED) are severe and common conditions affecting many patients with epilepsy. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop new therapies in epilepsy. The search for novel treatments has identified several neuropeptide systems as potential targets for future therapeutic interventions. LÄS MER
