  1. 1. Experimental studies on ovarian cryopreservation and transplantation

    Author : Milan Milenkovic; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : cryopreservation; ovary; transplantation; animal models;

    Abstract : Around 8% of all cancer victims are below 40 years of age and the survival after cancer treatment during childhood and reproductive years has increased considerably to be around 80% today. The clinical field of fertility preservation has emerged to enable cancer patients that are treated with potentially gonadotoxic chemotherapy-radiotherapy during childhood or reproductive ages, to preserve their fertility.

  2. 2. The Long and Winding Road : Emotional Reactions during In Vitro Fertilization and Attitudes towards Cryopreserved Embryos and Oocyte Donation

    Author : Agneta Skoog Svanberg; Torbjörn Bergh; Claudia Lampic; Per Olof Janson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Caring sciences; attitude; cryopreservation; discarding; disclosure; distress; emotion; gender; infertility; in vitro fertilization; oocyte donation; psychology; public; Vårdvetenskap; Caring sciences; Vårdvetenskap; Obstetrics and Gynaecology; obstetrik och gynekologi;

    Abstract : The main aims were to investigate emotional reactions during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment among women and men, attitudes of IVF couples towards cryopreserved embryos and public attitudes towards various aspects of oocyte donation in Sweden. Assessments of emotional, physical and social reactions were made on a daily reaction scale and attitudes on the basis of study-specific questionnaires. READ MORE

  3. 3. Interaction of trehalose with water and protein for the understanding of biological stabilization

    Author : Christoffer Olsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; trehalose; protein; neutron scattering; water; neutron diffraction; amorphous; cryopreservation; biomolecule; EPSR; DSC;

    Abstract : The understanding of biomolecular interactions with water and co-solutes opens up further understanding for the mechanism behind biomolecular stabilization. This is highly important for developing technologies aimed to preserve biological material. Such techniques include cryopreservation of for example pharmaceuticals or human organ transplants.

    Abstract : The understanding of biomolecular interactions with water and co-solutes can lead to greater knowledge regarding the mechanisms behind biomolecular stabilization. This is highly important for developing technologies aimed to preserve biological materials. READ MORE

  5. 5. Pinpointing biomarkers of importance for children with combined type 1 diabetes and celiac disease

    Author : Andrea Tompa; Maria Faresjö; Karin Åkesson; Mikael Karlsson; Jönköping University; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Type 1 diabetes; celiac disease; children; biomarkers; immune markers; flow cytometry; cryopreservation; T cells; T-regulatory cells; B cells; B-regulatory cells; cytokines; chemokines; acute phase proteins; adipocytokines; matrix metalloproteinases;

    Abstract : Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease are both characterized by an autoimmune feature. The diseases also share the same risk genes, and thereby patients have an increased risk of developing the other disease subsequently. READ MORE
