  1. 1. 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. Identification of Immunological Targets for Brain Cancer Immunotherapy

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Zhenda Wang; [2022]
    Keywords : Cancer immunotherapy; brain cancer; neoantigen; MHC HLA; TCR;

    Abstract : Background Cancer immunotherapy has yielded many successes. Yet to some hard-to-treat brain tumors, such as glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), it still lacks substantial improvement. Neoantigens resulting from mutations in malignant cells are the key targets for employing adoptive cell therapies. READ MORE

  5. 4. Diffusion and Camera-Noise Modelling for Analysis of Single-Particle Tracking Movies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Erik Clarkson; [2022]
    Keywords : reaction-diffusion; camera-noise modelling; single-particle tracking; Gillespie simulations; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Interactions between T-cells and other body cells is an essential part of the immune system. It involves the binding between surface receptors of the two cells. Specifically, T-cell receptors (TCRs) bind onto pMHC (peptide-loaded major histocompatibility complex) molecules on the partnering cell surface. READ MORE

  6. 5. Optimizing Growth Conditions for Lactic Acid Bacteria

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Lorenzo García Tejada; [2021]
    Keywords : Lactic Acid Bacteria; Optimization; Cell growth; Lactic acid production; Oxygen; Yeast extract; Wood hydrolysate; Poly-lactic acid; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : High production titers are paramount in lactic fermentation processes aimed towards poly lactic acid (PLA) manufacturing. Optimization of the fermentation stage is therefore essential for the viability of the process. READ MORE
