  2. 1. Protein-Protein Interactions in Human Aquaporin Regulation

    Author : Jennifer Virginia Roche; Biokemi och Strukturbiologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membrane proteins; Human Aquaporins; water channels; Protein-protein interaction; Regulation; AQP2; AQP0; LIP5; CaM;

    Abstract : Water is an essential compoment of every living orgamism and forms a major part of the human body. Regulated water transport is crucial for proper cell functioning and body homeostasis. READ MORE

  4. 2. Membrane-Assisted Isoform ImmunoAssay : Separation and determination of protein isoforms

    Author : Maria Lönnberg; Carl G M Magnusson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Bioengineering; Bioteknik; Surface Biotechnology; ytbioteknik;

    Abstract : Proteins exist in a variety of isoforms with minor differences, mostly due to their glycosylation patterns, which can modulate their biological functions. It seems to be of clinical relevance to measure the isoform-distribution.Thesis describes a novel technology named Membrane-Assisted Isoform ImmunoAssay (MAIIA). READ MORE

  5. 3. Vascular endothelial growth factor in renal cell carcinoma

    Author : Jan Jacobsen; Börje Ljungberg; Kjell Grankvist; Torgny Rasmuson; Anders Bergh; Peter Ekman; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; VEGF; isoforms; quantitative RT-PCR; immunohistochemistry; tissue microarray; Western blot; stage; survival; renal cell carcinoma; Urology and andrology; Urologi och andrologi;

    Abstract : Background. Angiogenesis is essential for tumour growth. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and its isoforms were investigated in relation to the clinical course in a large number of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods. READ MORE

  6. 4. Yolk sac morphology and uterine blood flow are associated with fetal outcome in diabetes pregnancy

    Author : Sheller Zabihi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Diabetes; yolk sac; embryo; gene expression; blood flow; folic acid; SOD; apoptosis;

    Abstract : Women with pregestational diabetes have a 3-5 times increased risk of giving birth to malformed babies compared with non-diabetic women. The malformations are likely to be induced before the seventh week of pregnancy, when the yolk sac is partly responsible for the transfer of metabolites to the embryo, and the uterine blood flow to the implantation site determines the net amount of nutrients available to the conceptus.

  7. 5. Polypeptide Conjugates as High-affinity Binders for Proteins

    Author : Lotta Tollstoy Tegler; Lars Baltzer; Amelie Eriksson Karlström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Protein recognition; polypeptide conjugates; peptide; molecular interactions; C-reactive protein; Acetylcholine esterase; Human Carboinc anhydrase; Chemistry; Kemi; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

    Abstract : A novel concept for protein recognition has been developed. The recognition unit is a hybrid molecule obtained by conjugation of a small organic molecule to a synthetic polypeptide selected from a 16-membered set of 42 amino acid residue sequences. The sequences are unordered and have no prior relation to the target proteins. READ MORE
