  1. 1. Exploring IGF interactions in the context of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Axelina Schmidt; [2023]
    Keywords : cerebrospinal fluid; plasma; insulin-like growth factors IGFs ; amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; affinity proteomics; cerebrospinalvätska; plasma; insulinliknande tillväxtfaktorer IGF ; amyotrofisk lateralskleros; affinitetsproteomik;

    Abstract : Amyotrofisk lateral skleros (ALS) är en progressiv och dödlig neurodegenerativ sjukdom som påverkar motorneuroner i både hjärnan och ryggraden. Dagens ALS forskning har ett fokus på att skapa en bättre förståelse för både sjukdomsmekanism och de metaboliska processer som bidrar till sjukdomen. READ MORE

  2. 2. Profiling the autoantibody repertoire in systemic sclerosis

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Emmie Pohjanen; [2021]
    Keywords : Systemic sclerosis; rheumatology; autoimmunity; autoantibody; biomarkers; Systemisk skleros; reumatologi; autoimmunitet; autoantikropp; biomarkörer;

    Abstract : Systemisk skleros (SSc) är en autoimmun rheumatisk sjukdom som kännetecknas av fibros i huden och/eller de interna organen, vaskulopati och en autoimmun reaktion från immunförsvaret, med eller utan specifika autoantikroppsprofiler. Diagnostisering och sjukdomsbehandling försvåras av sjukdomens heterogena natur. READ MORE

  3. 3. Investigating the autoimmunity profiles of Covid-19 patients

    University essay from KTH/Proteinvetenskap

    Author : Alfred Kedhammar; [2021]
    Keywords : Covid-19; SARS-CoV-2; Autoimmunity; Autoantibodies; Cytokines; Covid-19; SARS-CoV-2; Autoimmunitet; Autoantikroppar; Cytokiner;

    Abstract : The clinical severity of Covid-19 varies greatly between individuals, and all underlying risk factors are not yet well understood. Previous studies have shown Covid patients to be enriched with autoantibodies against type I interferons, suggesting autoimmunity may be an underlying factor of susceptibility to severe disease.

  4. 4. Method development for enrichment of autoantibodies from human plasma

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

    Author : Lovisa Skoglund; [2020]
    Keywords : autoantibodies; enrichment; autoimmunity; plasma; suspension bead array; autoantikroppar; anrikning; autoimmunitet; plasma; suspension bead array;

    Abstract : Antibodies are naturally occurring in humans, with the function to protect the body from pathogens. Occasionally, antibodies towards the body’s own proteins are produced. These so called autoantibodies are present in healthy individuals but are also highly associated with diseases with autoimmune involvement. READ MORE

  5. 5. Development of Sandwich Assays for Potential Protein Biomarkers in Neurodegenerative Diseases

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

    Author : Jamil Yousef; [2020]
    Keywords : Biomarkers; cerebrospinal fluid; neurodegenerative diseases; neuroproteomics; sandwich assay; suspension bead array.; Biomarkörer; ryggmärgsvätska; neurodegenerativa sjukdomar; neuroproteomik; sandwich assay; suspension bead array.;

    Abstract : As the aging population is increasing worldwide, so is the prevalence of neurodegenerativediseases such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD), Parkinson’s disease (PD), frontotemporal dementia(FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Reliable biomarkers able to aid the diagnosis anddifferentiation of these diseases are needed in order to start the right treatment as early as possible. READ MORE
