  1. 1. Evaluating LOAd703 in combination with chemotherapeutic agents in ovarian cancer

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

    Author : Jonas Härdin; [2022]
    Keywords : Clinical Immunology; Immunotherapy; LOAd; Ovarian Cancer; Oncology; Virus;

    Abstract : Ovarian cancer is a disease with a high rate of mortality where the need for novel treatments will increase in the near future as older and populous generations reach the age where the cancer is usually diagnosed. Once treated, ovarian cancer tends to recur and display a newfound resistance against the platinum-based chemotherapeutic drugs that are used to treat the disease. READ MORE

  2. 2. Adsorption of lysozyme on Silica Surfaces and Specific ion effects

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Guillem Onyos de Plandolit Ruiz; [2019]
    Keywords : Ellipsometry; mesoporous silica nanoparticles; surfaces; physical chemistry; fysikalisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Biomedical application of nanoparticles is largely associated to their fate in biological media which, in fact, is related to their surface properties. Surface functionalitzation plays a key role in determining biodegradation, cytotoxicity and biodistribution through interactions which may be meditated by the macromolecules occurring in biological media.
