  1. 21. Development of a Cancer Vaccine Targeting Tumor Blood Vessels

    Författare :Elisabeth J. M Huijbers; Anna-Karin Olsson; Arjan W. Griffioen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Vaccine; Therapeutic; Cancer; Tumor; Angiogenesis; Immunization; Vascular; Extracellular matrix; Biomedicinsk laboratorievetenskap; Biomedical Laboratory Science; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : A treatment strategy for cancer is the suppression of tumor growth by directing an immune response to the tumor vessels, which will destroy the tissue.In this thesis we describe the development of a vaccine that targets antigens expressed around angiogenic vasculature in most solid tumors.

  3. 22. The role of PDGF-B in brain blood vessels

    Författare :Khayrun Nahar; Christer Betsholtz; Jean-Baptiste Demoulin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; PFBC; PDGFB; PDGFRB; Brain vasculature; Mural cells;

    Sammanfattning : The development of blood vessels is dependent on several molecular cues to form properly. A functional PDGF-B/PDGFR-b signaling is paramount for the investment of mural cells, that provide with support, to the developing vasculature. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Level Set Segmentation and Volume Visualization of Vascular Trees

    Författare :Gunnar Läthén; Reiner Lenz; Magnus Borga; Lasse Riis Østergaard; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; level set methods; image segmentation; edge detection; visualization; volume rendering; blood vessels; angiography; vascular trees;

    Sammanfattning : Medical imaging is an important part of the clinical workflow. With the increasing amount and complexity of image data comes the need for automatic (or semi-automatic) analysis methods which aid the physician in the exploration of the data. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Middle ear structure in relation to function : the rat in middle ear research

    Författare :Nils Albiin; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :rats; Eustachian tube; ear; middle; tympanic membrane; palatal muscles; mucous membrane; blood vessels; mast cells; otitis media; microscopy; electron;

    Sammanfattning : The present study was undertaken to evaluate the rat as a model for middle ear re­search. The rat was chosen primarily because the gross structure of its middle ear shows several similarities to that of man. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Composites for commercial ships

    Författare :Måns Håkansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; design; ship; composites; commercial vessels; optimization; weight reduction; cost-efficient design;

    Sammanfattning : Composite materials have been used in marine applications for more than 50 years, and benefits such as low weight, low maintenance requirements and freedom of design are well known. A wider use of composites in larger, commercial vessels has been limited by initial costs and fire regulations, but both of these obstacles are diminishing. LÄS MER
