  1. 1. Ultrasonic Fluid and Cell Manipulation

    Author : Mathias Ohlin; Martin Viklund; Hans Hertz; Peter Glynne-Jones; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 3D cell culture; Acoustic streaming; Acoustofluidics; Cell manipulation; High-resolution imaging; Multi-well; Microplate; Natural killer cell; Piezo; Radiation force; Solid tumor; Solubilization; Spheroid; Standing wave; Temperature control; Transducer; Trapping; Ultrasonic; Fysik; Physics; Biological Physics; Biologisk fysik;

    Abstract : During the last decade, ultrasonic manipulation has matured into an important tool with a wide range of applications, from fundamental cell biological research to clinical and industrial implementations. The contactless nature of ultrasound makes it possible to manipulate living cells in a gentle way, e.g. READ MORE

  2. 2. Cardiomyocyte Cell Cycle, Renewal and Isolation

    Author : Stuart Walsh; Stamcellscentrum (SCC); []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; binucleation; Cardiomyocytes; surface marker; troponin-T; mitosis; microarray; cell cycle; FACS;

    Abstract : Heart disease results from the loss of cardiomyocytes following myocardial damage and is a leading cause of death worldwide. Stimulating the endogenous regeneration of cardiomyocytes or isolating them from in vitro culture is an attractive therapeutic strategy. READ MORE

  3. 3. Macrophage-material surface interactions

    Author : Christina Gretzer; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Apoptosis; biomaterials; cell-cell interactions; cell-material interactions; cytokines; differentiation; fibrinogen; hydrogen peroxide; LPS; monocytes; particles;

    Abstract : Material surface-stimulated activation of the macrophage and the release of mediators has been suggested to be an important factor for inflammation and tissue regeneration around biomedical implants. Macrophage interactions with particles released from implants as well as macophage-bacteria interactions are also involved in implant loosening processes. READ MORE

  4. 4. Single Cell Studies of Glycolytic Oscillations Using Microfluidics and Optical Tweezers

    Author : Anna-Karin Gustavsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Optical manipulation; microfluidics; fluorescence microscopy; single cell imaging; Saccharomyces cerevisiae; glycolysis; oscillations; NADH;

    Abstract : The complex set of reactions in metabolism has been extensively studied in populations with millions of cells, but much information can still be gained by studying the heterogeneous metabolic behaviour in individual cells. The first part of energy metabolism is called glycolysis and is very similar in mammalian cells, such as human cells, and in yeast cells. READ MORE

  5. 5. Genes and proteins controlled by cGMP-PKG during retinal degeneration

    Author : Jiaming Zhou; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; retinal degeneration; cell death; cGMP-PKG; organotypic explant culture; RNA sequencing; mass spectrometry;

    Abstract : prevalence was reported as 1:3000-4000 worldwide, making it the main reason for blindness in the working population in industrial countries. The mutations of over 70 genes have been related to this genetic disorder, and there is generally no effective treatment, except for gene therapy for the RPE65 mutations. READ MORE
