  1. 6. Large scale integration and interactive exploration of cancer data – with applications to glioblastoma

    Författare :Patrik Johansson; Sven Nelander; Rebecka Jörnsten; Lene Uhrbom; Gary Bader; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Glioblastoma; data integration; network modeling; interactive exploration; precision medicine; Oncology; Onkologi; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine; Statistics; Statistik;

    Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor, with a median survival of approximately 15 months. The standard of care treatment consists of surgical resection followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, where chemotherapy only prolongs survival by approximately 3 months. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Proximity Extension Assay : a universal tool for proteomics in precision medicine

    Författare :Phathutshedzo M. Muthelo; Ulf Landegren; Jochen Schwenk; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Proximity Extension Assay; Precision medicine; Assay development; Biology with specialization in Molecular Biology; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Precision medicine aims to utilise biomarkers to ensure the right treatment is given to the right patient at the right time. In pursuit of this goal, sensitive protein detection is essential to improve opportunities for discovery, verification, validation and development of valuable protein biomarkers. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Studies on Heparin Binding protein in bacterial infections

    Författare :Adam Linder; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Infectious diseases remain a major health problem, where sepsis and other severe bacterial infections are common causes of morbidity and mortality, and are associated with high costs for the community. The importance of early and appropriate treatment of sepsis and severe bacterial infections has been underlined by many and since sepsis is more prevalent and has a higher mortality rate than for instance acute myocardial infarction, there is a need for improvement.

  5. 9. Epithelial signatures in respiratory disease

    Författare :Elisabeth Ax; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; airway epithelium; inflammation; gene expression; extracellular vesicles; miRNA;

    Sammanfattning : The epithelium of the human airways protects us against harm and helps maintain immune homeostasis. In respiratory diseases such as asthma and COPD, the functions of the epithelium are altered and can cause or contribute to disease progression. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Studies on cell wall-attached proteins of Streptococcus pyogenes

    Författare :Magnus Rasmussen; Infektionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; insertion sequence; phase variation; collagen-like; alpha2-macroglobulin; pattern; virulence; surface protein; Stretococcus pyogenes; cell wall-attached protein; Clinical biology; Klinisk biologi;

    Sammanfattning : Cell wall-attached proteins (CWPs) are important for the virulence of Gram-positive bacteria, but are also targets for the host immune system. CWPs have a conserved COOH-terminal region, responsible for cell wall-sorting. A pattern based on this conserved region was developed. LÄS MER
