  2. 11. Deciphering Binding Patterns of Therapeutic Antibodies with Immune Cells : From Method Development to Application

    Author : Sina Bondza; Jos Buijs; Marika Nestor; Mark Cragg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; affinity; binding kinetics; CD20; cell-based assay; immunology; receptor-ligand interaction; therapeutic antibody; Immunologi; Immunology; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Reversible binding, for example between signaling molecules and receptors on the cell surface, is one of the main means to communicate information in cellular systems. Knowledge about how molecules interact is crucial for both understanding biological function and for therapeutic intervention. READ MORE

  4. 12. Immunomodulatory Therapy of Solid Tumors : With a Focus on Monoclonal Antibodies

    Author : Linda Sandin; Thomas Tötterman; Mangsbo Sara; Fredrik Eriksson; Loskog Angelica; Ola Winqvist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; in situ checkpoint blockade; antibody-mediated tumor immunotherapy; CTLA-4; CD40; monoclonal antibodies; experimental animal model; Fc gamma receptor; Medical Science; Medicinsk vetenskap;

    Abstract : Cancer, historically considered a genetic disease, is currently acknowledged to affect the whole body. Our immune system is one key player that can elicit a response against malignant cells but can also promote tumorigenesis. Tumors avoid immune recognition by creating a suppressive microenvironment and inducing tolerance. READ MORE

  5. 13. Insights into weak affinity antibody-antigen interactionsStudies using affinity chromatography and optical biosensor

    Author : Magnus Strandh; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; immunosensor; biosensor; weak affinity chromatography; cross-reactivity; antibody-antigen interaction; weak affinity; biomolecular recognition; Immunology; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi;

    Abstract : Molecular recognition and interaction is fundamental for the function of biological systems. The properties of the interacting biomolecules dictate the type of forces involved and the strength and dynamics of the interaction. Many interactions are very strong whereas others exhibit weak affinity. READ MORE

  6. 14. Expression of Ig genes. Regulation of transcription and production of human antibodies

    Author : Christina Furebring; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immunology; Bioteknik; Biotechnology; human antibodies; immunoglobulin gene expression; 3 enhancer; serology; transplantation; Immunologi; serologi;

    Abstract : During B lymphocyte development, the transcriptional activity of the IgH locus is subject to spatial and temporal changes. The 3' enhancer (3'E) has been suggested to play an important role in regulation of immunoglobulin gene expression late in B cell development. READ MORE

  7. 15. Antibody- and Peptide-based Immunotherapies : Proof-of-concept and safety considerations

    Author : Erika Fletcher; Sara Mangsbo; Vivianne Malmström; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Immune complex; conjugat; vaccine; CD40; whole blood; cytokine release syndrome; Immunologi; Immunology;

    Abstract : The aim of cancer immunotherapy is to eradicate tumours by inducing a tumour-specific immune response. This thesis focuses on how antibodies and peptides can improve antigen presentation and the subsequent tumour-specific T cell response. Tumour recognition by the immune system can be promoted through delivery of antigen in the form of a vaccine. READ MORE
