  1. 1. Cytokine capture with beads in cytotoxicity assays in microwells

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Maxime Simon; [2023]
    Keywords : Microbead; Inteferon gamma; Natural Killer cells; microwell; binding-reaction model; Mikrokula; Interferon gamma; Naturliga Mördarceller; Mikrobrunn; modell för bindningsreaktion;

    Abstract : Cytokines are small, secreted proteins that are important for cell signalling in theimmune system. Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) is one of the most potent cytokines thatnatural killer (NK) cells of the innate immune system secrete with both antiviral,antibacterial, and antitumoral activity. READ MORE

  3. 2. Graphene Quantum Dots as Fluorescent and Passivation Agents for Multimodal Bioimaging

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Nüzhet Inci Kilic; [2021]
    Keywords : graphene quantum dots; hybrid nanoparticles; x-ray fluorescence contrast agents; multimodal bioimaging; grafen-kvantprickar; hybrida nanopartiklarna; multimodal bioavbildning; röntgenfluorescens kontrastmedel;

    Abstract : Zero-dimensional graphene (carbon) quantum dots have been drawing attention in bio-related applications since their discovery, especially for their optical properties, chemical stability, and easily modifiable surface.  This thesis focuses on the green synthesis of nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (GQDs) for dual-mode bioimaging with X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and optical fluorescence.

  4. 3. Ouabain Toxicity -Selectivity Towards Renal Cancer Cells

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Emma Magnusson; [2020]
    Keywords : Cardiotonic steroids; ouabain; Na K -ATPase; cytotoxicity; renal cancer; apoptosis; Kardiotoniska steroider; ouabain; Na K -ATPase; cytotoxicitet; njurcancer; apoptos;

    Abstract : Ouabain and other cardiotonic steroids are known to inhibit Na + ,K + -ATPase (NKA), theion pump responsible for the ionic gradient across the plasma membrane. These steroidsdisplay a selective toxicity towards several tumour cells in comparison to primary humancells, however, the mechanism behind this is not yet understood. READ MORE

  5. 4. Polymyosit hos hund : en jämförelse mellan raser med avseende på patologi

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biomedical Sciences and Veterinary Public Health

    Author : Marcus Blomqvist; [2015]
    Keywords : polymyosit; inflammatorisk myopati; hund; boxer; newfoundlandshund; ungersk vizsla; polymyositis; inflammatory myopathy; canine; dog; Newfoundland; Hungarian vizsla;

    Abstract : Polymyosit är relativt vanligt förekommande hos hund och avser en generellt utbredd inflammatorisk myopati med förmodad immunmedierad etiologi. Som med andra idiopatiska sjukdomar, är etiologin för polymyosit inte klarlagd. Inflammatoriska myopatier kännetecknas av infiltration av inflammatoriska celler i tvärstrimmig muskulatur. READ MORE
