    Abstract : Tumour targeted radiotherapy is an appealing approach for treatment of disseminated tumour cells. A targeting agent that specifically binds to a structure on tumour cells is then used to transport therapeutically relevant radionuclides. The epidermal growth factor receptor, EGFR, is overexpressed on tumour cells in several malignancies, e.g. READ MORE

  6. 4. Saliva: a cell suspension of epithelial cells harboring the antimicrobial peptide LL-37 and the growth factor EGF

    Author : Alexandra Aidoukovitch; Institutionen för experimentell medicinsk vetenskap; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Saliva; Oral health; Innate immunity; Cathelicidin; LL-37; Host defense peptides; EGF; Saliva; Oral health; Innate immunity; Cathelicidin; LL-37; Host defence peptides; EGF;

    Abstract : Saliva plays a crucial role in maintaining oral health through its physical and chemical properties that provide various protective functions. One of its essential components is the human host defense peptide LL-37, which is produced by immune cells and epithelial cells, and participates in the first line of defense against pathogens.

  7. 5. Targeting to EGF receptors : Preparation and experimental analysis of end-end coupled mEGF-dextran conjugates

    Author : Qinghai Zhao; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Biomedical Radiation Science; biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Targeted tumor therapy is to deliver cytotoxic agents selectively to tumor cells. By such delivery, normal tissues receive minimal damage while a therapeutical effect is achieved in tumor. A targetingsystem can be constructed by conjugating a tumor-seeking molecule and toxic agents via a carrier. READ MORE
