  2. 26. Intra- and Extracellular Modulation of Integrin-directed Connective Tissue Cell Contraction

    Author : Tijs van Wieringen; Kristofer Rubin; Anders Arner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interstitial fluid pressure; PDGF-BB; bacterial proteins; αVβ3 integrin; cytoskeleton; Biochemistry; Biokemi; biokemi; Biochemistry;

    Abstract : All blood vessels in the microvasculature are embedded in loose connective tissue, which regulates the transport of fluid to and from tissues. The intersti-tial fluid pressure (IFP) is one of the forces that control this transport. READ MORE

  4. 27. Characterization of extracellular and surface bound adherence proteins of Staphylococcus aureus

    Author : Torgny Schennings; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Staphylococcus aureus;

    Abstract : Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) is a pathogen causing infections. In recent years S.aureus formed resistance to most of known antibiotics on the market. READ MORE

  5. 28. Development of Techniques for Characterization, Detection and Protein Profiling of Extracellular Vesicles

    Author : Sara Cavallaro; Jan Linnros; Apurba Dev; Hakho Lee; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; extracellular vesicles; streaming current; fluorescence microscopy; atomic force microscopy; scanning electron microscopy; protein profiling; size profiling; Biological and Biomedical Physics; Biologisk och biomedicinsk fysik;

    Abstract : Nanosized extracellular vesicles (EVs, ∼30-2000 nm) have emerged as important mediators of intercellular communication, offering opportunities for both diagnostics and therapeutics. In particular, small EVs generated from the endolysosomal pathway (∼30-150 nm), referred to as exosomes, have attracted interest as a suitable biomarker for cancer diagnostics and treatment monitoring based on minimally invasive liquid biopsies.

  6. 29. Studies on lipid transport and extracellular vesicle production in Caenorhabditis elegans ciliated neurons

    Author : Shapour Rahmani; Simon Tuck; Jonathan D. Gilthorpe; Anders Olsen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; C. elegans; cilia; extracellular vesicles; tat; phospholipid translocase; P4-family ATPase;

    Abstract : The cilium is a protrusion of cell membrane. Both the protein and lipid contents of cilia are different from those of other parts of the cell membrane. While the transport of proteins into and out of cilia has been intensively studied, much less is known about how the lipid content of ciliary membranes is regulated. READ MORE

  7. 30. Pathophysiological effects of alpha-synuclein on SNARE complex proteins in models of alpha-synucleinopathies

    Author : Emma Brolin; Joakim Bergström; Anna Erlandsson; Martin Ingelsson; Arianna Bellucci; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Alpha-synuclein; Parkinson’s disease; synaptosome; SNARE complex; proximity ligation assay; extracellular vesicles;

    Abstract : Accumulation and spread of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) aggregates are central to the disease pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies, collectively known as α-synucleinopathies. Native α-syn is a monomeric presynaptic protein that can act as a molecular chaperone for the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex assembly. READ MORE
