  1. 36. Generation and investigation of neural microenvironment in health and disease

    Författare :Jakub Lewicki; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cells in our body are under the constant influence of intrinsic and extrinsic factors that modulate their behavior. Early on, starting during the development of the organism, growth factors, nutrients, oxygen, the extracellular matrix and contact with other cells affect essential processes such as proliferation, migration, differentiation and apoptosis.

  2. 37. Preclinical evaluation of immunostimulatory gene therapy for pancreatic cancer

    Författare :Emma Eriksson; Angelica Loskog; Tanja de Gruijl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pancreatic cancer; immunotherapy; oncolytic viruses; adenoviruses; CD40L; 4-1BBL; IL-6; tumor microenvironment; Klinisk immunologi; Clinical Immunology;

    Sammanfattning : Pancreatic cancer is characterized by its desmoplastic tumor microenvironment and the infiltration of immunosuppressive cells. It is a devastating disease where most patients are diagnosed at a late stage and the treatment options are few. The development of new treatments is surly needed. LÄS MER

  3. 38. 3D Printed scaffolds as cancer microenvironment medels for drug discovery

    Författare :Jennifer Rosendahl; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; 3D Printing; Breast cancer; Biomaterials; Drug development;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is one of the most common diseases in the modern world and major efforts are made globally to develop new diagnostics and treatments. It originates from a cell which, at some point, has begun to divide and grow uncontrollably. The most common type is breast cancer, and like all other cancers there is a need of more efficient drug therapies. LÄS MER

  4. 39. Extracellular Matrix and Connective Tissue Cells of the Tumor Microenvironment

    Författare :Tomas Friman; Christian Sundberg; Kristofer Rubin; Ulf Eriksson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Biochemistry; Biokemi; Morphology; cell biology; pathology; Morfologi; cellbiologi; patologi; Tumour biology; Tumörbiologi; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : In addition to malignant cells, solid tumors comprise supporting stromal tissue that consists of extra cellular matrix (ECM), connective tissue cells, inflammatory cells and blood vessels. The stromal compartment and the malignant cells together shape the tumor microenvironment that in turn determines tumor progression and efficacy of anti-tumor treatments. LÄS MER

  5. 40. Immune modulation in serous epithelial ovarian cancer : focus on the role of tumor-derived exosomes

    Författare :Alireza Labani Motlagh; Lucia Mincheva-Nilsson; Ola Winqvist; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ovarian cancer; EOC; HGSC; exosomes; NKG2D; MICA B; ULBP; DNAM-1; PVR; nectin-2; lncRNAs; immune suppression; anti-tumor immunity; NK-cell cytotoxicity; cytokines; Th1; Th2; T regulatory response; inflammation; tumor microenvironment;

    Sammanfattning : Serous epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is a potent suppressor of the immune defense. Here, we studied interactions between EOC and the immune system that lead to escape from tumor immune surveillance. LÄS MER
