4. 27. Development of a protein-free fed-batch process for NS0 cells: studies on regulation of proliferation

   Author : Erika Spens; Lena Häggström; Jean-Louis Goergen; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NS0 myeloma cells; protein-free medium; fed-batch; conditioned medium; autocrine growth factors; abortive proliferation; protease activity; aprotinin; gp130; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Abstract : The overall objective of this study was to investigate how NS0 cell proliferation is regulated in protein-free media. The hypothesis was that during the adaptation to growth factor-free media, animal cell lines start to produce their own autocrine growth factors to support proliferation, and after some time in a culture the effects of these factors are lost which results in cessation of proliferation.

5. 28. Targeting glutathione peroxidases : identifying environmental modulators, and screening for novel small molecule inhibitors

   Author : Dorian M. Cheff; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Glutathione peroxidases (GPXs) are a family of selenoproteins that are critical regulators of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cell, specifically hydroperoxides like hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). ROS are important for normal cell signaling and are tightly controlled to promote cell growth, proliferation, and survival. READ MORE
