  1. 1. Understanding the effects of TCP-25 and EDTA interaction : A study of the biophysical aspects of a naturally derived peptide formulation with EDTA for topical application

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

    Author : Ebba Kant; [2023]
    Keywords : chronic wounds; EDTA; biophysical aspects; formulation; pharmaceutical technology; Thrombin derived C-terminal peptide; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Chronic wounds are an emerging healthcare issue and current methods of healing chronic wounds address bacteria but are ineffective against resistant bacteria and the biofilm formation commonly observed in these wounds. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) derived from the endogenous wound healing system have been shown to combat bacterial infections, exhibit immunomodulatory effects, as well as improving wound healing.

  3. 2. Serum TK1 activity and SAA concentration as biomarkers to differentiate lymphoma from gastrointestinal disease in cats

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Amanda Friman; [2023]
    Keywords : lymphoma; gastrointestinal lymphoma; feline lymphoma; inflammatory bowel disease; IBD; thymidine kinase 1; TK1; biomarker; cancer; cats;

    Abstract : Alimentary lymphoma is one of the most common malignant neoplasms in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract in cats. Since the clinical signs often are identical to those of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and the findings on diagnostic imaging and endoscopic mucosal biopsies overlap, invasive biopsy sampling from the GI tract is needed to be able to differentiate these two diseases from each other.

  4. 3. Cystatin C i urin som markör för akut njurskada hos hundar

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Sanna Isaksson; [2023]
    Keywords : cystatin C; AKI; hund; tubuliskada; urinmarkör;

    Abstract : Cystatin C är ett protein och en proteinasinhibitor med låg molekylärvikt (13kDa) som är involverat i intracellulär proteinkatabolism och produceras med konstant hastighet. Urin-cystatin C (uCysC) hos en frisk hund resorberas fullständigt i proximala tubuli och finns normalt i mycket små, ej mätbara mängder i urinen. READ MORE

  5. 4. Profiling the Blood Proteome in Autoimmune Disease Using Proximity Extension Assay

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Julia Asp; [2023]
    Keywords : Plasma proteomics; proximity extension assay; autoimmune disease; differential expression; machine learning; biomarkers; Plasma proteomik; proximity extension assay; autoimmuna sjukdomar; differentiellt proteinuttryck; maskininlärning; biomarkörer;

    Abstract : Autoimmuna sjukdomar är en samling komplexa, kroniska, inflammatoriska sjukdomstillstånd som kännetecknas av dysreglering av immunsystemet, vilket resulterar i inflammation och skada av vävnader, celler och organ. Dessa sjukdomar har en betydande inverkan på individens livskvalitet och bidrar ofta till ökad dödsrisk där komorbiditeter föreligger. READ MORE

  6. 5. Influence of Nrf2 Activators and Keap1 Inhibitors on Antioxidative Phenotypes of THP-1-Derived M1 and M2 macrophages: Therapeutic Potential for Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för immunologi, genetik och patologi
