  1. 1. Comparison of deep learning and model-based approaches for spatial profiling of the immune tumor environment on multiplex image data

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Esraa Ahmed; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The demographics of the tumor microenvironment (TME) impact the Immunotherapy responses for lung cancer patients. Given the heterogeneity of immune cells present within TME, the distribution patterns of different subpopulations of T-cells can be exploited to predict short-term or long-term survival of lung cancer patients.

  3. 2. Phenotype and function of imiquimod-treated MUTZ-3 derived Langerhans cells in potential psoriatic 3D skin model

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Author : Emilie Allentoft Schousboe; [2023]
    Keywords : 3D models; imiquimod; Langerhans cells; MUTZ-3 cell line; pro-inflammatory cytokines; psoriasis;

    Abstract : Upon encounter of an antigen, epidermis-resident Langerhans cells (LCs) become activated and present the processed antigen to T cells of the draining lymph nodes, resulting in tolerogenic or inflammatory responses. In psoriasis plaques, skin homeostasis is disrupted and replaced by an inflammatory dermatitis. READ MORE

  4. 3. Investigating the crosstalk between estrogen receptor beta in colorectal cancer and tumor-associated macrophages

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Alicia Bodin; [2023]
    Keywords : estrogen; macrophages; colorectal cancer; qPCR; cell culture; östrogen; makrofager; tjocktarmscancer; qPCR; cellodling;

    Abstract : Tjock-och ändtarmscancer (kolorektalcancer) är den tredje vanligaste cancertypen och den näst vanligaste cancer-relaterade dödsorsaken i världen. Östrogen har visat sig ha en skyddande roll mot kolorektalcancer och östrogenreceptor beta är den dominerande östrogenreceptorn i normalt kolonepitel. READ MORE

  5. 4. Optogenetic and multiplexed gene editing in primary T-cells.

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Daniel Lake; [2023]
    Keywords : T-cells; BLU-VIPR; optogenetics; optogenetic; multiplex; KO; Cre; mice;

    Abstract : Current T-cell tracking techniques in vivo are limited. The ability to successfully target a gene in vivo in T-cells and track movement throughout its life cycle provides an exciting opportunity to elucidate the functions of genes. READ MORE

  6. 5. Feeding Live or Dried Black Soldier Fly Larvae (Hermetia illucens) to laying hens – Effects on Immune Traits, Egg Quality, Feather Condition, Body and Organ Weights

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Animal Nutrition and Management

    Author : Adnan Aslam; [2023]
    Keywords : Black soldier fly; live larvae; dried larvae; immune response; egg quality; body weight; feather condition scoring;

    Abstract : Due to increasing prices and potential scarcity of soybean meal (SBM), there is growing demand for alternative and sustainable protein sources in poultry production. Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) have proven to be a suitable alternative based on nutritional value and sustainable production. READ MORE
