  3. 2. Improving antibody-based immunotherapy protocols in vitro : Study on optimization of antitumor immunity by antibody-dependent phagocytosis with the monoclonal antibody rituximab

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Giovanni Ferro; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The monoclonal antibody Rituximab (RTX) has been widely and successfully used to treat non-Burkitt B cell lymphoma in human patients. The combination of immunotherapy with low-dose chemotherapy has increased the success of the treatment and translated into increased patients’ survival. READ MORE

  4. 3. Tissue distribution of Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors in salmon fish (Salmo salar L.)

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Food Science

    Author : Carlota Gimeno Zafón; [2013]
    Keywords : PPAR; Atlantic salmon; fatty acid; PCR; ; qPCR; ; RT-PCR;

    Abstract : Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptors (PPARs) are ligand-inducible transcription factors, that can be activated by both dietary fatty acids and their metabolic derivates in the body, as by eicosanoids, hypolipidemic agents or antidiabetic drugs. To date three PPAR isotypes have been identified in mammals, birds, and amphibians, termed PPARα, PPARγ, and PPARβ/δ. READ MORE

  5. 4. Analysis of the isotype specificity of three platypus immunoglobulin Fc receptors

    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The host’s defense against diseases called immunity acts either via innate or adaptive defense mechanisms. Immunoglobulins (Ig’s) are important players in adaptive immunity. They have evolved both structurally and functionally during vertebrate evolution. READ MORE

  6. 5. Mekanismer bakom bensimidazolresistens

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Monika Domberg; [2011]
    Keywords : Anthelmintikaresistens; Bensimidazol; Mekanismer; Haemoncus contortus; Cyathostomer; Tubulin;

    Abstract : Anthelmintikagruppen bensimidazoler (BZ) har använts på många djurslag sedan början av 1960-talet. BZ verkar genom att hindra αβ-tubulin dimerer att bygga på mikrotubuli. Cellernas cytoskelett bryts då ner vilket hämmar många viktiga funktioner som exempelvis förmågan till celldelningar. READ MORE
