1. Development of a PNA-drug conjugate for pretargeted delivery of cytotoxic drugs
University essay from Uppsala universitet/TheranosticsAbstract : One of the major challenges in cancer treatment is delivering high enough doses of active substance specifically to cancer cells without accumulation in healthy organs. Pretargeting has emerged as a potential solution, where the delivery of a cancer recognizing (primary) agent and a cancer killing (secondary) agent are separated. READ MORE

2. Scale-down modelling of the upstream process for production of Affibody® Molecules
University essay from KTH/ProteinvetenskapAbstract : I detta projekt har uttrycket av Affibodymolekyler i bioreaktorer av olika volymetriska skalor jämförts för att fastställa om ett tillförlitligt samband mellan de olika bioreaktorernas prestanda kan etableras för att möjliggöra utvecklingen av en nedskalad produktionsmodell för Affibodymolekyler. Baslinjen för jämförelsen i denna studie har varit en enliters- stirred tank reactor (STR) som de andra (mindre) bioreaktorernas prestanda jämfördes med. READ MORE

3. Hello P. pastoris! : The cultivatin and expression of proteins in the yeast Pichia pastoris
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Producing pharmaceuticals in Escherichia coli inevitably comes with an extensive purification process. This is because many of the native proteins of E. coli are immunogenic to humans, especially the heat and pH resistant endotoxins located in the membrane of E. coli. READ MORE

4. Development of an Affibody-based Prodrug Against HER2 for Cancer Therapy
University essay from KTH/ProteinvetenskapAbstract : Affinity proteins constitute an important category of cancer therapeutics. Owing to properties such as high target affinity and selectivity, therapeutic proteins offer more targeted therapy than small molecule drugs. The target molecules are typically proteins that are overexpressed on the surface of tumour cells, such as membrane-bound receptors. READ MORE

5. Screening of Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography for various Affibody® Molecules
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningAbstract : Affibody® molecules are small affinity proteins with great opportunities in the application of biotechnological areas. Their popularity as biomolecules in pharmaceutical applications and research entails that the purity of Affibody® molecules is essential for their use as safe medical drugs. READ MORE
