  1. 11. Moleculary imprinted micro- and nanoparticles for cancer associated glycan motifs

    Author : Liliia Mavliutova; Börje Sellergren; Michael Whitcombe; Malmö universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Moleculary imprinted polymer; sialic acid; glycan recognition; synthetic receptor;

    Abstract : Sialic acids are an important family of monosaccharides that are typically found as terminal moieties of glycans. Aberrant sialylation has been proven to correlate with various diseases including cancer. Glycosylation analysis is complex due to high diversityof the glycan isomers and their low abundance.

  2. 12. Atom Probe Tomography Investigations of Biologically Relevant Nanoparticles

    Author : Gustav Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surface modification; Nanoparticles; silica; hydroxyapatite; electron microscopy; ligands; atom probe tomography; titanium;

    Abstract : The study of materials at the nanoscale is essential in many scientific disciplines. For example, in materials science the size of the building blocks of a material is directly linked to its properties. READ MORE

  3. 13. Hormone-Sensitive Lipase and Protein Kinase B; Molecular characterization in testis, adipose tissue and pancreatic beta cells

    Author : Lena Stenson; Signaltransduktionsforskning; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; signal transduction; pancreas; beta cells; adipocyte; insulin; Akt; protein kinase B; spermatogenesis; cholesterol esterase; hormone-sensitive lipase; testis; cAMP; Proteins; enzymology; Proteiner; enzymologi;

    Abstract : Hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL) and protein kinase B (PKB) are enzymes that in different ways are associated with lipid metabolism. While HSL is the well-known lipolytic enzyme responsible for hydrolysis of stored triacylglycerols in adipose tissue, PKB is a recently identified serine/threonine protein kinase, ubiquitously expressed and involved in signal transduction pathways induced by insulin and growth factors.

  4. 14. An intersectional approach in social epidemiology: Understanding health heterogeneity

    Author : Maria Wemrell; Socialepidemiologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Critical debates within the science of (social) epidemiology concern the relative lackof social theory in epidemiological research and the low discriminatory accuracy (DA)of much epidemiological knowledge on factors and markers of risk for disease.Against this background, this thesis integrates intersectionality theory intoepidemiological study.

  5. 15. Interactions between herpes simplex virus type 1 glycoprotein C and cell surface glycosaminoglycans

    Author : Kristina Mårdberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Herpes simplex virus-1; glycoprotein C; virus receptor; glycosaminoglycans; heparan sulfate; chondroitin sulfate;

    Abstract : The cell surface glycosaminoglycan (GAG) heparan sulfate (HS) serves as an initial receptor for herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and virus attachment to the HS molecule is mediated by the envelope glycoprotein C (gC). In the first part of this thesis, we aimed to define the HS-binding domain of viral gC. READ MORE
