  1. 1. Hypoxia and hematopoietic stem cell control with the substance Adaptaquin : An evaluation of hematopoietic stem cell’s proliferation and differentiation in artificially induced hypoxia

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

    Author : Jens Christiansen; [2023]
    Keywords : Adaptaquin; Flow cytometry; Hematopoietic stem cells; Hypoxia; Hypoxia inducible factor; Prolyl hydroxylase; Adaptaquin; Flödescytometri; Hematopoetiska stamceller; Hypoxi; Hypoxi inducerande faktor; Prolylhydroxylas;

    Abstract : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) have historically been difficult to maintain ex vivo with many attempts to culture them in vitro by mimicking their natural biological environment. Providing a hypoxic environment is one way to achieve this goal and can be performed by using hypoxia stimulating compounds that inhibits the degradation of HIF1a which plays an important role in regulating hypoxia.

  3. 2. Single-cell RNA-seq mapping of chicken leukocytes : An investigation into single-cell transcriptomics as an alternative to traditional immunological methods within non-traditional model organisms

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mikrobiologi och immunologi

    Author : Matilda Maxwell; [2023]
    Keywords : Bioinformatics; scRNA-seq; avian; immunology; Seurat; leukocytes; chicken; gallus gallus; 10x genomics; PCA;

    Abstract : The immune system is a complex infrastructure where many cells interact with each other and perform duties depending on their type and function. When using traditional immunological methods in studying non-traditional model organisms, such as birds, challenges arise. READ MORE

  4. 3. Novel mRNA therapeutics for cardiomyogenesis and vasculogenesis

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Xiaoting Huang; [2022]
    Keywords : Heart; Placental growth factor PLGF ; Cardiomyogenesis; Vasculognesis; Regeneration; hjärta; PLGF; kardiomyogenes; vaskulogenes; regenerering;

    Abstract : Kardiovaskulära sjukdomar är fortfarande en av de främsta dödsorsakerna i dag. Den främsta orsaken till sjukdomen är skador på hjärtcellerna, som kanske inte kan repareras av sig själva, så att utveckla en ny terapi för att regenerera eller reparera hjärtcellerna är ett viktigt mål inom forskningen om hjärtsjukdomar.

  5. 4. Development of a high-throughput platform for generation and early screening of high producing stable cell lines

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Jonathan Karlsson Persson; [2021]
    Keywords : CHO-K1; HEK293; CellCelector™; High-throughput screening; Protein A beads; Secondary antibody; CHO-K1; HEK293; CellCelector™; Högkapacitets-screening; Protein A-kulor; Sekundär antikropp;

    Abstract : Produktionen av rekombinanta biofarmaceutiska läkemedel, exempelvis monoklonala antikroppar, är en oumbärlig men ansträngande process. Under 2019 var sju av de tio mest sålda läkemedlen globalt baserade på rekombinant producerade monoklonala antikroppar. READ MORE

  6. 5. Increased expression of therapeutic proteins by identification of 3'-UTRs from high expressing genes in CHO cells

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för fysik, kemi och biologi

    Author : Alexander Westlund; [2019]
    Keywords : Mammalian cell; CHO; E. coli; protein expression; plasmid; transformation; Fc-fusion protein; flow cytometry; FACS; transfection; mRNA; UTR; gene engineering;

    Abstract : Therapeutic proteins, a.k.a. biopharmaceuticals, are most commonly produced in expression systems derived from Chinese Hamstery Ovary (CHO) cells, thanks to great capacity of post-translational modifications like secretation, folding and glycosylation. READ MORE
