  1. 11. Internalization mechanisms of cell-penetrating peptides : Structure-activity relationships, cellular distribution and membrane toxicity studies

    Författare :Mats Hansen; Ülo Langel; Mark Lindsay; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell-penetrating peptides; mechanisms; toxicity; structure-activity relationship; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi; Neurochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Transport of substances with pharmaceutical potential over the plasma membrane has been pushed a great step forward with the discovery of short cationic polypeptides, known as cell-penetrating peptides (CPP). Since then, the internalization mechanism and cargo delivery properties of CPPs has been extensively studied. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Naturally derived cell-penetrating peptides and applications in gene regulation : A study on internalization mechanisms and endosomal escape

    Författare :Pontus Lundberg; Ülo Langel; Bernard Lebleu; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; peptide; oligonucleotide; endocytosis; gene regulation; Neurochemistry; Neurokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Cell-penetrating peptides are a class of peptides which have achieved a lot of recognition due to their vector abilities. Since their discovery over a decade ago, there has been an uncertainty concerning the mechanism by which they are internalized into the cells. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Regulation of internalization and replication of intracellular bacterial pathogens

    Författare :Eugénie Bassères; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The capacity of intracellular bacteria to cause disease depends on their ability to invade and replicate within eukaryotic host cells. These characteristics also allow preferential invasion and replication by facultative anaerobic bacteria in solid tumours, which can be exploited to design delivery vectors for cancer therapy.

  4. 14. Delivery of gene-regulating agents : internalization mechanisms and novel vectors

    Författare :Per Lundin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The sequencing of the human genome was expected to generate a veritable explosion of therapeutics for regulation of gene function, either through modulation of gene expression or through the replacement of defect genes. However, nucleic acid-based pharmacological agents suffer from issues of low bioavailability and unfavorable pharmacokinetics, wherefore these prospects have not yet been realized. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Cell responses in infected and cystic fibrosis respiratory epithelium

    Författare :Rashida Hussain; Godfried M . Roomans; Maria Björkqvist; Ferenc Karpati; Hans Kollberg; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; airway epithelial cells; cystic fibrosis; bacterial infection; CFTR; ENaC; chloride transport; intracellular calcium; P. aeruginosa internalization; Biomedicin; Biomedicine;

    Sammanfattning : Respiratory Epithelium. Örebro Studies in Medicine 99. Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by a mutation in a cAMP-activated chloride (Cl-) channel (CFTR). Mortality and morbidity in CF is mainly due to the deregulated responses of the airway epithelial cells. LÄS MER
