  1. 1. A novel assay for the detection of Hepatitis C virus in blood plasma, using padlock probes and rolling circle amplification

    Kandidat-uppsats, Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Författare :Andréa Karlsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Hepatitis C viral infection is a globally widespread blood-borne disease affecting the liver, causing cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. This type of liver cancer is mainly caused by chronic Hepatitis C and Hepatitis B. Specific detection with the following correct treatment is crucial to reduce the overall burden of the disease.

  3. 2. Optimization of b-value Acquisition and Parameter Estimation of Intravoxel Incoherent Motion Measurements

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Sjukhusfysikerutbildningen

    Författare :Ivan Rashid; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Medicine and Health Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Radiotherapy is commonly used for cancer treatment, given to approximately half of all cancer patients in Sweden. Despite its widespread usage, there is currently no non-invasive and reliable imaging method that can identify regions of radiation resistance. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Genetic manipulation to improve efficacy of dendric cell adoptive immunotherapy against cancer in dogs

    Kandidat-uppsats, Karlstads universitet

    Författare :Felicia Berglund; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Adoptive immunotherapi;

    Sammanfattning : To improve the efficacy of the dendritic cell vaccine Alv B DC from Alv B, the PD-L1 expression in cancer cells was attempted to be reduced through a transfection with a custom designed siRNA. Before transfecting the dendritic cells, the siRNA functionality had to be tested through flow cytometry, that resulted in negative results and therefore led to a RT-qPCR protocol that indicated that the siRNA was functional.

  5. 4. Predicting tumour growth-driving interactions from transcriptomic data using machine learning

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Neuroonkologi och neurodegeneration

    Författare :Mathilda Stigenberg; [2023]
    Nyckelord :cancer; immunology; cell-cell interactions; deep learning; variational autoencoder; supervised variational autoencoder; tumour microenvironment; single-cell RNA sequencing; spatial transcriptomics; breast cancer; machine learning;

    Sammanfattning : The mortality rate is high for cancer patients and treatments are only efficient in a fraction of patients. To be able to cure more patients, new treatments need to be invented. Immunotherapy activates the immune system to fight against cancer and one treatment targets immune checkpoints. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Determine how estrogen and TNFα impact circadian clock genes in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Proteinvetenskap
