  1. 1. Fibroblasttillväxtfaktor-23 (FGF-23) – en möjlig biomarkör för osteoartrit hos katt?

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Författare :Pernilla Hägg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :artros; biomarkör; FGF-23; katt; osteoartrit;

    Sammanfattning : Osteoartrit är en kronisk obotlig ledsjukdom som är vanlig hos katt. Trots att osteoartrit är associerad med smärta kan sjukdomen hos katt vara svår att diagnosticera. LÄS MER

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

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

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

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Light-Sheet Imaging of Collagen in Renal Tissue in Aqueous and Anhydrous Conditions

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Författare :Felicia Näsman; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Kidney disease; Renal fibrosis; Light-sheet Microscopy; Collagen; Fast Green; Kronisk njursjukdom; Njurfibros; ”Light sheet”-mikroskopi; Kollagen; Fast Green;

    Sammanfattning : Chronic kidney disease is a progressive kidney disease that affects approximately one tenth of the world population. In almost all cases of progressive, end-stage kidney disease, fibrosis is seen. Renal fibrosis is a condition of the kidneys in which collagens and other proteins accumulate in the extracellular matrix of the kidneys. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The role of AmotL2 in the regulation of mesenchymal transitioning of endothelial cells

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Författare :Anita-Ann Monteiro; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Endothelial-mesenchymal transition EndMT ; atherosclerosis; transforming growth factor β TGF-β ; Angiomotin-Like 2 AmotL2 ; Scrambled Scr ; knockdown kd ; Immunofluorescence IF ;

    Sammanfattning : Background During development, endothelial cells acquire mesenchymal-like properties to migrate and facilitate normal vascular formation. This process of transformation is known as endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) and has also been implicated in diseases like vascular pathologies contributing to endothelial inflammation, atherosclerosis and tumour angiogenesis.

  7. 5. Establishment of a deep learning algorithm for dosimetry of radiopharmaceuticals

    Master-uppsats,

    Författare :Dennis Lipnicevic; [2022-01-13]
    Nyckelord :Medical physics; automated segmentation; dosimetry; kidney; nuclear medicine dosimetry; deep learning; convolutional neural network;

    Sammanfattning : Purpose: The aim of this study was to introduce a volumetric convolutional neural network for segmentation of the kidneys in SPECT images and to apply it in the dosimetry of radiopharmaceuticals of this organ, in order to decrease segmentation time and to standardize the segmentation of the kidneys. Method: Three networks were trained using two network architectures and a total of 216 retrospectively collected images from patients that underwent imaging procedures at Sahlgrenska University Hospital between 2009 and 2018.
