  1. 1. System level analysis of Immune system in children with solid tumors

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning; Uppsala universitet/Science for Life Laboratory, SciLifeLab

    Author : Nadia Hassan Shamas; [2022]
    Keywords : Immune system in Children; Cancer; Medicines;

    Abstract : Over the last few years, significant immune system changes have been observed in tumor patients exposed to different treatments. Moreover, evaluation and prediction of the responses of treatments given to these patients can become a key component. READ MORE

  3. 2. Characterizing the immunogenic cell death induced by Semliki Forest Virus in glioblastoma cell lines

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

    Author : Aishwarya Sivaramakrishnan; [2021]
    Keywords : Glioblastoma; Immunogenic Cell Death; Oncolytic Viruses; Semliki Forest Virus; Aishwarya Sivaramakrishnan;

    Abstract : Glioblastoma is the most common primary brain tumor in humans and has a poor prognosis. Current therapies are not curative. Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are being investigated as tools to induce immunogenic cell death (ICD), cell death capable of activating the immune system. READ MORE

  4. 3. Non-coding constraint mutations impact the gene regulatory system in osteosarcoma

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

    Author : Raphaela Pensch; [2021]
    Keywords : cancer; osteosarcoma; cancer genomics; evolutionary constraint; non-coding mutations; gene regulation;

    Abstract : The non-coding space makes up around 98 % of the genome, but cancer-driving mutations have so far mostly been discovered in protein-coding regions. The majority of somatic non-coding mutations are neutral passenger mutations and identifying non-coding mutations with driving roles in cancer poses a challenge. READ MORE

  5. 4. Artificial intelligence for segmentation of nuclei from transmitted images

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

    Author : Norah Klintberg Sakal; [2020]
    Keywords : image segmentation; U2OS convolutional neural network; artificial intelligence; human bone osteosarcoma;

    Abstract : State-of-the-art fluorescent imaging research is strictly limited to eight fluorophore labels duringthe study of intercellular interactions among organelles. The number of excited fluorophore colorsis restricted due to overlap in the narrow spectra of visual wavelength. READ MORE

  6. 5. Patient-derived organoid culture for 3D culture of colorectal cancer, renal cancer and osteosarcoma

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kvinnors och barns hälsa

    Author : Seiko Johansson; [2019]
    Keywords : FMCA; Anticancer drugs; Survival index; BME-gel; VEGF;

    Abstract : It is always important to choose appropriate anticancer drugs for cancer patients. At RCL, a division of Uppsala university hospital, drug resistance profiles of patients are evaluated by a cell viability assay called FMCA. READ MORE
