1. Human Adipocytes Proteomic Approaches
University dissertation from Linköping : Linköping University Electronic PressAbstract : Type 2 diabetes is characterized by increased levels of glucose in the blood originating from insulin resistance in insulin sensitive tissues and from reduced pancreatic insulin production. Around 400 million people in the world are diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and the correlation with obesity is strong. READ MORE

2. Development and evaluation of a subunit DIVA vaccine against bluetongue virus serotype 8 in cattle
University dissertation from ; Department of Clinical Sciences, Swedish University of Agricultural SciencesAbstract : Bluetongue virus (BTV) causes the primarily vector-borne bluetongue disease of ruminants, which poses a permanent threat to Europe since new serotypes and strains are frequently introduced. Vaccination of cattle is essential to control BTV outbreaks. READ MORE

3. Application of a New Logic to Old Drugs: Angiogenesis Inhibition in Neuroblastoma
University dissertation from Uppsala : Acta Universitatis UpsaliensisAbstract : Neuroblastoma is one of the most common solid cancers of early childhood. In Sweden, approximately 10-15 cases occur annually. The overall five-year neuroblastoma survival in Europe is approximately 45%. Since cancer treatment involves drugs with risks of side effects in the growing child, there is a need for more effective and less toxic drugs. READ MORE

4. Heterogeneity of human metabolism in health and disease: a modelling perspective
University dissertation from Gothenburg : Chalmers tekniska högskolaAbstract : Metabolism is broadly defined as the sum of biochemical reactions within cells that are involved in maintaining the living state of the organism. Profound importance of metabolism comes from the fact that it is the sole source of energy that allows life to resist to be degraded into entropy. READ MORE

5. High-throughput screening using multicellular tumor spheroids to reveal and exploit tumor-specific vulnerabilities
University dissertation from Uppsala : Acta Universitatis UpsaliensisAbstract : High-throughput drug screening (HTS) in live cells is often a vital part of the preclinical anticancer drug discovery process. So far, two-dimensional (2D) monolayer cell cultures have been the most prevalent model in HTS endeavors. However, 2D cell cultures often fail to recapitulate the complex microenvironments of in vivo tumors. READ MORE
