  4. 2. Novel Methods for Analysis of Heterogeneous Protein-Cell Interactions : Resolving How the Epidermal Growth Factor Binds to Its Receptor

    Author : Hanna Björkelund; Karl Andersson; Lars Gedda; Yosef Yarden; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heterogeneity; Kinetics; EGFR; HER2; LigandTracer; Interaction Map; Internalization; Specificity; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Abstract : Cells are complex biological units with advanced signalling systems, a dynamic capacity to adapt to its environment, and the ability to divide and grow. In fact, they are of such high level of complexity that it has deemed extremely difficult or even impossible to completely understand cells as complete units. READ MORE

  5. 3. Aspects of Tumour Targeting : Preclinical Studies on Human Malignant Cells in vitro

    Author : Maria Dahlström Wester; Annelie Lindström; Åke Wasteson; Lars Gedda; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Exclusive eradication of tumour cells causing minimal damage to healthy tissue, a concept referred to as targeting, is an interesting approach to improve the outcome for patients afflicted with cancer.The general aim of this thesis was to highlighten aspects that could be of importance in developing novel treatment regimens based on specific targeting of tumour cells.

  6. 4. EGFR- and HER2-Binding Affibody Molecules : Cellular studies of monomeric, dimeric and bispecific ligands

    Author : Lina Ekerljung; Lars Gedda; Johan Lennartsson; Jörgen Carlsson; Birgitta Sundström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : EGFR; HER2; Affibody molecule; cell signaling; receptor dimerization; Biomedical Radiation Science; Biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Abnormal expression and signaling of the ErbB receptors is associated with the development and progression of several forms of cancer. In this thesis, new ErbB-targeting affibody molecules are evaluated regarding their cellular effects in vitro. READ MORE

  7. 5. Two-Step Targeting for Effective Radionuclide Therapy : Preclinical Evaluation of 125I-labelled Anthracycline Delivered by Tumour Targeting Liposomes

    Author : Amelie Fondell; Lars Gedda; Detlef Gabel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; radionuclide; Auger electrons; liposomes; targeting; tumour therapy; Biomedical Radiation Science; Biomedicinsk strålningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : For the treatment of cancer, Auger-electron emitting radionuclides are strongly dependent on their close proximity to DNA to utilize the local therapeutic potential of the Auger electrons. This thesis investigates a two-step targeting approach that uses targeting liposomes for the delivery of an Auger-electron emitter, 125I, coupled to a DNA-binding compound, Comp1, to the tumour-cell DNA.
