  1. 16. Explorative bioinformatic analysis of cardiomyocytes in 2D &3D in vitro culture system

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Sruthy Janardanan; [2021]
    Keywords : Cardiomyocytes; Pluripotent stem cells; 2D; 3D; differentially expressed genes; Hub nodes; Hub-Bottleneck nodes;

    Abstract : The in vitro cell culture models of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs) have gained a predominant value in the field of drug discovery and is considered an attractive tool for cardiovascular disease modellings. However, despite several reports of different protocols for the hPSC-differentiation into CMs, the development of an efficient, controlled and reproducible 3D differentiation remains challenging.

  2. 17. Establishment of in vivo and in vitro platforms for investigation of the effects of Wolbachia on the vector competence of Culex pipiens

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

    Author : Alexander Bergman; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wolbachia is an intracellular bacterial symbiont found in nearly half of all arthropod species. In some mosquito vector species, it is known to exhibit repressive effects on viral replication and transmission. Sindbis virus (SINV) is an arthritogenic alphavirus that causes yearly human infections in Northern Europe. READ MORE

  3. 18. A pericyte-specific knockout of Foxf2 in mice shows fibrinogen acculumation in the brain but no regulation in Pdgfr-ß expression

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Ebba Stål; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : FoxF2 is a transcriptional factor that initiates gene expression. Foxf2 is particularly expressed in central nervous system pericytes. Recent studies have displayed that an inactivation of Foxf2 in mice had an impact on the blood-brain barrier integrity with evidence of breakdown. READ MORE

  4. 19. Generation and characterization of a prostate-specific membrane antigen positive eukaryotic cell system for phage selection

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Linda Ehrenborg; [2021]
    Keywords : PSMA; Affibody molecules; Directed evolution; phage display; flow cytometry; PSMA; affibody; riktad evolution; fagdisplay; flödescytometri;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancer types worldwide. However, current diagnostic approaches and treatments are invasive and unspecific. Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an ideal biomarker for prostate cancer and can act as a target for therapeutic or diagnostic agents. READ MORE

  5. 20. The use of tissue culture methods for producing resistant material of Aesculus hippocastanum : a literature study

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Breeding

    Author : Johan Pettersson; [2020]
    Keywords : Aesculus hippocastanum; resistance; tissue culture; micropropagation; somatic embryogenesis; mikroförökning; somatisk embryogenes;

    Abstract : The horse chestnut Aesculus hippocastanum is a European species of broadleaf trees classified as vulnerable. The species is subjected to many pathogens and pests threatening its survival. Resistance to some pathogens of horse chestnut has been investigated and tissue culture methods such as somatic embryogenesis have been successful. READ MORE
