1. 1. Developing a protocol for 3D-printable bioink from decellularised porcine tissue

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

   Author : Vendela Sandin; [2024]
   Keywords : Scaffold; Extracellular matrix; ECM; Bioink; Bioprinting; Collagen; Pharmaceutical technology; Technology and Engineering; Biology and Life Sciences;

   Abstract : T-cell administration via a scaffold is a promising tool for treatment of inoperable solid tumours. Traditional scaffold materials lack the complexity of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that cells normally grow in. An alternative is to instead use decellularised ECM (dECM) from biological tissue to create the scaffold. READ MORE

3. 2. Examination of pathway crosstalk and functional modules in papillary thyroid cancer dedifferentiation to anaplastic thyroid cancer

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

   Author : Maria Panagiota Theodorou; [2023]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Thyroid cancer, comprising well-differentiated follicular and papillary types, alongside less common medullary and anaplastic subtypes with poor prognoses, exhibits specific anaplastic cases resulting from papillary dedifferentiation, lacking precise molecular evidence. Utilizing Metascape, CTpathway and PathwAX II, the study integrates functional modules and pathway crosstalk for dedifferentiation analysis, conducting a comprehensive two-dimensional assessment of toolset’s functionality, compatibility, and interoperability.

4. 3. Design and engineering of light-driven dynamic films for bioelectronic interfacing

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

   Author : Luca Terenzi; [2023]
   Keywords : Conductive polymers; Stimuli responsive materials; Azopolymers; Cell-chip coupling; Bioelectronics; Konduktiva polymerer; Stimuli-känsliga material; Azopolymerer; Cell-chip-koppling; Bioelektronik;

   Abstract : In the realm of neuroelectronics, the challenge lies in achieving finer observations of physiological processes to comprehend neuronal interactions and computations. This necessitates the development of more compliant and biomimetic interfaces for improved integration with biological tissues, enabling finer physiological process observations. READ MORE

5. 4. Light-Sheet Imaging of Collagen in Renal Tissue in Aqueous and Anhydrous Conditions

   University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

   Author : Felicia Näsman; [2023]
   Keywords : Kidney disease; Renal fibrosis; Light-sheet Microscopy; Collagen; Fast Green; Kronisk njursjukdom; Njurfibros; ”Light sheet”-mikroskopi; Kollagen; Fast Green;

   Abstract : Chronic kidney disease is a progressive kidney disease that affects approximately one tenth of the world population. In almost all cases of progressive, end-stage kidney disease, fibrosis is seen. Renal fibrosis is a condition of the kidneys in which collagens and other proteins accumulate in the extracellular matrix of the kidneys. READ MORE

6. 5. Injectable and shape-retaining collagen hydrogel, crosslinked using bio-orthogonal cycloaddition chemistry

   University essay from KTH/Fiber- och polymerteknologi

   Author : Murtaza Sharq; [2022]
   Keywords : Injectable and shape-retaining collagen hydrogel; crosslinked using bio-orthogonal cycloaddition chemistry; Injicerbara och formbevarande kollagenhydrogeler; tvärbundna med bio-ortagonal cykloadditionskemi;

   Abstract : Under senaste decennierna, har intresset kring implantat från naturliga och syntetiska polymerer ökat markant i samband med en ökad marknadsefterfrågan på vävnadsdonationer. Detta har lett till efterforskningen av nya in-situ formerande geler med formbevarande egenskaper in-vivo. READ MORE
