1. 1. Crystallization, optimization, and crystal structure determination of ligands in complex with galectin-8N

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

   Author : George Larsson; [2022]
   Keywords : Biochemistry; Structural Biochemistry; Galectin-8; Protein Crystallization; Chemistry;

   Abstract : This thesis focuses on the protein “galectin-8N” which is a lectin protein that takes part in several physiological functions such as inflammation, autophagy, cell migration, and more. The project has three objectives: to observe and increase the reproducibility of crystallization of two variants (wildtype and mutant) of the human protein galectin-8N and to analyze the binding site when three different novel ligands are each inserted.

   Abstract : In biology, it is common to study cultured cells (in vitro) with fluorescence time-lapse microscopy. The cells are recorded for longer period of time and can later be viewed at an accelerated speed. During the acquisition some live cells tend to migrate. READ MORE

4. 3. How Topography Influences the Fate of Human Neural Progenitor Cells

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Tillämpad biokemi; Lunds universitet/Beräkningskemi

   Author : Jacob Karlström; [2020]

   Abstract : Novel biomimetic three-dimensional scaffolds have emerged over the last decades, and are promising for applications in regenerative therapies, as well as in in vitro disease modelling and drug testing. Thanks to their added dimension, these scaffolds are able to more accurately mimic the topography of native cellular microenvironments compared to traditionally used two-dimensional culture substrates.

5. 4. Microwell-based Collagen Matrix Migration Assays for NK:target Cell Interactions : Three-dimensional Imaging and Analysis of Transient Migration Behavior of NK Cells in vitro

   University essay from KTH/Cellens fysik

   Author : Per Olofsson; [2011]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes of the innate immune system responsible for lysing tumor and virally-infected cells. Investigating NK cell heterogeneity can inform the development of more efficacious immunotherapeutic treatments. Cell motility is an essential aspect of NK cell function. READ MORE
