  1. 1. Comparison of Modified Double Tray Method and 3D scanning i prosthodontics

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för odontologi

    Author : Elsa Nermo; Eloïse Rousseau; [2023]
    Keywords : 3D scanning; modified double tray method.;

    Abstract : The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate and to compare the precision of two different impression techniques for oral prosthetic construction, namely the analogue modified double tray method, and the digital three-dimensional scanning with Trios 3D shape intraoral scanner. The analog method used was a modified double tray method where the tray had been removed to diminish vertical discrepancies in occlusion. READ MORE

  3. 2. Ovary spheroid formation and quality assessment using two different protocols

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Nikki Wallius Hiltunen; [2023]
    Keywords : ovary; fertility; spheroid; Biosilk™; three-layer gradient system; äggstock; fertilitet; sfäroid; Biosilk™; trelagers gradientsystem;

    Abstract : Redan innan födseln fastställs kvinnors fertilitet, som karakteriseras av ett begränsat antal äggblåsor, så kallade folliklar. Beståndet av folliklar minskar naturligt med åldern, samtidigt som kvinnors fertilitet beror på deras steroid- och äggproduktion. READ MORE

  4. 3. 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

  5. 4. Design and production of adeno-associated virus vectors for imaging mitochondrial networks in the brain

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Elnaz Samadian Zad; [2023]
    Keywords : adeno-associated virus; mitochondria; mitochondrial networks; imaging; fluorescent protein; synapsin promoter; human embryonic kidney cells; organoids;

    Abstract : Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that function in a complex interconnected network within the cell. Neurons are sensitive and highly energy demanding cells in the brain which require a functioning mitochondrial network that is able to provide ATP and modulate calcium. READ MORE

  6. 5. Investigating permeability characteristics of porcine esophageal mucosa: A viable ex vivo model for human buccal mucosa

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle (HS)

    Author : Renugadevi Srinivasan; [2023]
    Keywords : Porcine esophageal mucosa; Permeability characteristics; Drug permeation; Inter-specimen variation; Intra-specimen variation.;

    Abstract : Due to its larger surface area and ease of preparation, pig esophageal mucosa has emerged as a practical and viable alternative to buccal mucosa for studying permeability characteristics in vitro. However, the permeation results in biological membranes have shown high variability due to inter-specimen and intra-specimen variations. READ MORE
