  1. 1. Diffusion and Camera-Noise Modelling for Analysis of Single-Particle Tracking Movies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Erik Clarkson; [2022]
    Keywords : reaction-diffusion; camera-noise modelling; single-particle tracking; Gillespie simulations; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Interactions between T-cells and other body cells is an essential part of the immune system. It involves the binding between surface receptors of the two cells. Specifically, T-cell receptors (TCRs) bind onto pMHC (peptide-loaded major histocompatibility complex) molecules on the partnering cell surface. READ MORE

  2. 2. Development of a novel method for studying permeability of PEG-ylated liposomes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kemi - Ångström

    Author : Jicheng Li; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : PEG-ylated liposomes are attractive in terms of utilizing them as long-circulating drug carriers. With the incorporation of PEG-components in the liposomal membranes, their permeability towards small-molecule solutes may be affected for various reasons. READ MORE

  3. 3. Constructing supported lipid bilayers from native cell membranes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Biofysikalisk kemi

    Author : Tommy Dam; [2018]
    Keywords : T cells; Model membrane systems; Supported lipid bilayers; SLB; biophysical chemistry; biofysikalisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The aim of this MSc-project was to investigate whether it is possible to incorporate native cell membrane components from Jurkat T cells into supported lipid bilayers, SLBs, to produce a model membrane system better resembling the native cell membranes in T cells. The procedure of forming native-like SLBs (nSLB) was adapted from an existing protocol and is done through the deposition of hybrid vesicles onto a cleaned glass slide. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigating the effect of salt concentrations on the immune cell membrane protein CD45 D1-D4 in a supported lipid bilayer using hydrodynamic trapping

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Carl Eric Onema; [2017]
    Keywords : Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : The immune system is a very complex system, aimed to protect the body from the many dangers that loom around us. A well-functioning immune system can fight of most invaders, remove foreign particles that entered our bodies, and take care of dead cells. READ MORE

  5. 5. Interaction of PEG-ylated Lipid Nanoparticles with Silica Substrates

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kemi - BMC

    Author : Xinchen Zhang; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this project, the interaction between polyethylene glycol modified (PEG-ylated) lipid nanoparticles and silica substrates was studied to find out how this interaction was affected by bulk concentration, temperature and the composition of particles. One kind of lipodisk and four kinds of PEG-ylated liposome were prepared from lipid films and characterized by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) instrument mounted with silica sensor.
