1. Affinity Based Capture of Circulating Tumour Cells Using Designed Ankyrin Repeat Proteins (DARPins) in a Microfluidic System
University essay from KTH/ProteinvetenskapAbstract : Designade ankyrinupprepningsproteiner (DARPiner) är små, mycket stabila antikroppsmimetiska proteiner. I det här projektet användes anti-EpCAM-DARPiner tillsammans med mikrofluidik för att avgära om de kunde fånga upp HCT116-celler mer effektivt än anti-EpCAM-antikroppar. READ MORE

2. Cellulose nanofibril-based Layer-by-Layer system for immuno-capture of circulating tumor cells in microfluidic devices
University essay from KTH/ProteinvetenskapAbstract : År 2020 listade Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) cancer som den globalt ledande dödsorsaken med över 10 miljoner dödsfall årligen. Av dessa 10 miljoner fall förekommer nästan 70% i låg- till medelinkomstländer - en siffra som på grund av den låga prioriteringen av cancerbehandling- och diagnostik förväntas öka till 85% redan år 2030.

3. Image Analysis of Circulating Tumour Cell Clusters from Imaging Flow Cytometry Data
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknikAbstract : Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) are cancer cells that have entered the circulation of the body breaking free from their primary tumour and that can act as progenitors of metastasis. At the time of writing, a study on a novel method to detect and count CTCs using imaging flow cytometry (IFC) is being conducted at Lund University. READ MORE

4. Development and evaluation of a pre-analytical device for liquid biopsy
University essay fromAbstract : In this project, a novel method to discover and monitor cancer was studied. Tumoureducated platelets (TEPs) have shown the ability to take up tumour-derived secretedmembrane vesicles, which contain tumour RNA. Therefore they are of great interestfor detecting cancer and could potentially work as biomarkers. READ MORE
