  2. 1. Accelerated wound healing by on-site production and delivery of CXCL12

    Author : Emelie Öhnstedt; Mia Phillipson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : wound healing; non-healing wounds; L. reuteri; macrophages; wound assessment; Fysiologi; Physiology;

    Abstract : Non-healing wounds is a growing medical problem, often associated with pathological conditions such as diabetes and peripheral ischemia. A non-healing wound entails a large amount of suffering for the patient, and demands extensive health care resources. READ MORE

  4. 2. Ion-Crosslinked Nanocellulose Hydrogels for Advanced Wound Care Applications

    Author : Alex Basu; Natalia Ferraz; Pentti Tengvall; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanofibrillated cellulose; wood nanocellulose; ion crosslinking; hydrogel; wound healing; biocompatibility; blood interactions; bacterial interactions; protein carrier; nanotherapeutic; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material;

    Abstract : A current trend in the field of wound care is the development of wound healing materials that are designed to address specific types of wounds or underlying pathologies to achieve improved healing. At the same time, there is a societal drive to replace synthetic materials with renewable alternatives. READ MORE

  5. 3. Bioactive nanocellulose materials for the treatment of chronic wounds

    Author : Anna Blasi Romero; Natalia Ferraz; Daniel Aili; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; cellulose nanofibrils; covalent immobilization; wound healing; antioxidant properties; antibacterial properties; anti-inflammatory properties; stimuli responsive hydrogels; reactive oxygen species; host defense peptides; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot nanoteknologi och funktionella material; Engineering Science with specialization in Nanotechnology and Functional Materials;

    Abstract : Chronic wounds represent a burden for the healthcare system and significantly affect the quality of life of the patients. There is currently a lack of efficient treatments but new, improved therapeutic approaches are under development. READ MORE

  6. 4. Promoting healing of skin and mucosa by immunomodulation using CXCL12 producing lactic acid bacteria : From bench to bedside

    Author : Emelie Öhnstedt; Mia Phillipson; Neil Forbes; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; L.reuteri; wound healing; non-healing wounds; ILP100; colitis; immunotherapy;

    Abstract : Immunotherapies direct the immune system to respond in a certain way, such as to fight cancer or to dampen inflammation. In this thesis, a new immunotherapy, ILP100, is developed using a technology that allows for local production of short-lived immunoregulatory proteins that previously have been undruggable.

  7. 5. In vitro wound healing characteristics of amelogenins

    Author : Sofia Almqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amelogenins; extracellular matrix; cell culture; macrophage; fibroblast; endothelial cell; integrin; cytokine; inflammation; wound healing tissue repair;

    Abstract : Wound healing involves the co-ordinated actions of several cell types, soluble cell mediators and extracellular matrix (ECM). This research project intended to investigate the role of certain ECM proteins in different processes during tissue repair by studying the interaction between dermal cells and ECM. READ MORE
