  1. 11. Polyamine analogues inhibit neuroblastoma cell growth

    Author : Erika Söderstjerna; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; survivin; cell cycle; polyamine analogue; polyamines; apoptosis; neuroblastoma; MYCN;

    Abstract : Abstract Neuroblastoma is a highly malignant neoplasm found in children. Although children with high-risk neuroblastoma respond to chemotherapy, relapses are common and an estimated long-time survival prognosis is approximately 15%. Thus, there is a tremendous need for new chemotherapeutic drugs for the treatment for neuroblastoma. READ MORE

  2. 12. Regulation of apoptotic processes in neurodegeneration and cancer : In vitro studies on human neuroblastoma cells

    Author : Tom Gatsinzi; Kerstin Iverfeldt; Thomas J. Sayers; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neurokemi med molekylär neurobiologi; Neurochemistry with Molecular Neurobiology;

    Abstract : Apoptosis is a highly controlled process of cell death, which is vital for maintenance of all multicellular organisms. Aberrant regulation of apoptosis can give rise to pathological conditions such as neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. READ MORE

  3. 13. Regulation and function of the Mad/Max/Myc network during neuronal and hematopoietic differentiation

    Author : Anne Hultquist; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Myc; Mad1; neuroblastoma; hematopoiesis; phorbol ester; retinoic acid; interferon-g; TGF-b; differentiation.; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Pathology; patologi;

    Abstract : The Mad/Max/Myc transcription factor network takes part in the control of vital cellular functions such as growth, proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. Dimerization with the protein Max is necessary for the Myc-family of oncoproteins and their antagonists, the Mad-family proteins, to regulate target genes and carry out their intended functions.

  4. 14. Health Promoting Effects of Bioactive Peptides in Milk - Studies on Cultured Normal Cells and Cancer Cells

    Author : Catja Freiburghaus; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the bioactive peptides lactoferricin and ubiquitin and findings suggesting that they have ability to modify the risk of cancer. It is known that components in bovine milk may improve human health and modify the risk of diseases. Examples of such compounds are bioactive peptides, i.e. READ MORE

  5. 15. Cellulose-derived conductive nanofibrous materials for energy storage and tissue engineering applications

    Author : Volodymyr Kuzmenko; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; neural cells; supercapacitors; hydrogel inks; carbonization; cellulose; carbon composites; tissue engineering; energy storage; carbon nanofibers; 3D printing; electrospinning;

    Abstract : There is no doubt that nanofibrous materials are among the most opportune materials used in advanced applications nowadays. To supply anticipated high demand for these materials sustainable resources such as plant derived polymers should be explored. READ MORE
