   Abstract : The extracellular matrix is (ECM) is a network of large, structural proteins and polysaccharides, important for cellular behavior, tissue development and maintenance. Present thesis describes work exploring ECM as scaffolds for tissue engineering by manipulating cells cultured in vitro or by influencing ECM expression in vivo. READ MORE

4. 2. Molecular Imaging of Diabetic Kidney Tissue and Binding Studies of Proinsulin C-peptide

   Author : Lina Lindfors; Jan Kihlberg; Ingela Lanekoff; Fredrik Almqvist; Uppsala universitet; []

   Abstract : Diabetic kidney disease is a serious complication of diabetes with a complex and incompletely understood pathology. In this work, the molecular changes in diabetic rat kidneys at a very early disease stage were studied using nanospray desorption electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry imaging. READ MORE

5. 3. Synthesis of Ring-fused Peptidomimetics : Interacting with Amyloid Fibrils

   Author : Dan E. Adolfsson; Fredrik Almqvist; Anna Linusson; Morten Grötli; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; organic chemistry; synthesis; peptidomimetics; thiazoline fused 2-pyridones; Alzheimer s disease; Parkinson s disease; Amyloid; Amyloid-beta; alfa-Synuclein; method development; organisk kemi; Organic Chemistry;

   Abstract : Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease are the two most common neurological disorders in humans. Both conditions involve progressive death of neurons in the central nervous system, decline in bodily functions and eventually (and invariably), death. So far, no cure exists and the available treatments can only ease symptoms. READ MORE

6. 4. Mass Spectrometry-based Neuroproteomics : Deciphering the Human Brain Proteome

   Author : Sravani Musunuri; Jonas Bergquist; Ganna Shevchenko; Jean-Charles Sanchez; Uppsala universitet; []

   Abstract : Mammalian brain is challenging to study due to its heterogeneity and complexity. However, recent advances in molecular imaging, genomics and proteomics have contributed significantly to achieve insights into molecular basis of brain function and pathogenesis of neurological disorders.

7. 5. Capturing transient peptide assemblies associated with Alzheimer's disease : Native mass spectrometry studies of amyloid-β oligomerization

   Author : Nicklas Österlund; Astrid Gräslund; Leopold L. Ilag; Mikael Oliveberg; Sheena E. Radford; Stockholms universitet; []

   Abstract : Correct folding of proteins is essential for maintaining a functional living cell. Misfolding and aggregation of proteins, where non-native intermolecular interactions form large and highly ordered amyloid aggregates with low free energy, is hence associated with multiple diseases.
