  1. 1. Expression of complement factor C1r and C1s in human gingival fibroblasts

    Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för odontologi

    Författare :Hanna From; [2023]
    Nyckelord :fibroblasts; pEDS; C1r; C1s;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Periodontitis is an inflammatory condition rendering in degradation of tooth supporting tissue. In the inflammatory process cytokines, amongst others TNF-a, IL-1b and IL-6 play an important role in regulating the immune response. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Wound Treatment : An overview and initial investigation of wound care and bioactive materials

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad materialvetenskap

    Författare :Louise Ringholm; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Wound treatment; wound care; bioactive materials; calcium silicate;

    Sammanfattning : Wound care is a field with many treatment methods and products on the market. The healing period varies, some wounds become difficult to heal and chronic, in many cases a connection can be drawn to underlying diseases. Diabetes is a disease that could cause foot ulcers that are difficult to heal. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Tuning physical and chemical attributes of the synthetic implant poly(L-lactic acid) and its effects on biological stimulation

    Kandidat-uppsats,

    Författare :Gabriella Sverlinger; Felicia Norman; Nora Othman; Wilma Hämäläinen; Michaela Thyberg; Maja Jonsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Polylactic acid; degradation rate of PLLA; physio- chemical properties of PLA; injectable PLLA;

    Sammanfattning : Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a polymer chain consisting of repeating units of lactic acid (LA) used in various biomedical applications because of its biocompatible features. It is commonly used as a subdermal filler and constitutes as the main ingredient in SculptraR, which is a collagen regenerating filler used to treat lipoatrophy of the cheeks or to rejuvenate the skin.

  5. 4. Ligand-stimulated cleavage of PDGFR-beta

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Agni Karolina Tsiatsiou; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Platelet-derived growth factor receptors (α and β) are included in the family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). The dimeric PDGF ligands bind to the PDGF receptors and this results in receptor dimerization, autophosphorylation, and thus activation. The autophosphorylated receptor dimer activates numerous signaling pathways. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Phenotype and function of imiquimod-treated MUTZ-3 derived Langerhans cells in potential psoriatic 3D skin model

    Master-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Institutionen för biomedicinsk vetenskap (BMV)

    Författare :Emilie Allentoft Schousboe; [2023]
    Nyckelord :3D models; imiquimod; Langerhans cells; MUTZ-3 cell line; pro-inflammatory cytokines; psoriasis;

    Sammanfattning : Upon encounter of an antigen, epidermis-resident Langerhans cells (LCs) become activated and present the processed antigen to T cells of the draining lymph nodes, resulting in tolerogenic or inflammatory responses. In psoriasis plaques, skin homeostasis is disrupted and replaced by an inflammatory dermatitis. LÄS MER
