  2. 21. Molecular and epigenetic control of CNS tumour and progenitor cells

    Author : Aileen Gracias; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, CNS tumours continue to result in high mortality and morbidity. Glioblastoma mutliforme (GBM), the most common primary brain tumour, is a recurrent tumour that despite advances in treatment, continues to demonstrate a median time of survival of 14.6 months.

  4. 22. Modeling environment effects on spectroscopic properties of biomarkers and catalytic mechanisms in enzymes

    Author : Camilla Gustafsson; Patrick Norman; Daniel Escudero; KTH; []
    Keywords : Computational chemistry; spectroscopy; biocatalysis; water flow; biomarkers; Teoretisk kemi och biologi; Theoretical Chemistry and Biology;

    Abstract : Arguably, humans are in need of both better diagnostic tools to prevent pro- gression of diseases as well as greener catalysts for synthesis of chemicals.Neurodegenerative diseases affecting neurons in the brain leads to demen- tias, where Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most prevalent.

  5. 23. Epigenetic and bioelectronic tools to study neural stem cells in health and disease

    Author : Christina Neofytou; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Brain development is a highly controlled, complex, and dynamic process. The mechanisms of its control need to accommodate the constantly changing contexts which, overtime, support the emergence of new neural structures and functions. READ MORE

  6. 24. Luminescent molecular recognition of pathognomonic and aging associated protein aggregates

    Author : Daniel Sjölander; Per Hammarström; Peter Nilsson; Uno Carlsson; Jan Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Various protein inclusions have been recognized to be associated with aging and pathogenic conditions, such as in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Type 2 diabetes, and the prionoses Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Chronic wasting disease (CWD), and Mad cow disease. The causative transition of protein aggregation is the alteration in the conformation of the protein that renders the protein susceptible towards self-assembly. READ MORE

  7. 25. The Importance of Macrophages, Lipid Membranes and Seeding in Experimental AA Amyloidosis

    Author : Aida Vahdat Shariatpanahi; Karin Öllinger; Katarzyna Lundmark; Gunilla Westermark; Elin Esbjörner Winters; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Amyloidosis is a group of protein misfolding diseases caused by tissue deposition of fibrillary protein aggregates termed amyloid. Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is a systemic form of amyloidosis that occurs as a complication of chronic inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, familial Mediterranean fever and chronic infections, such as tuberculosis.
