BACKGROUND: In this study, electrochemotherapy (ECT), i.e. tumour treatment based on local augmentation of intracellular drug delivery from short, intense electric pulses, was evaluated in rats with an adenocarcinoma implanted into the liver. Tumour response and concentrations of macrophages and T-lymphocytes (CD4 and CD8) in and around the tumour were measured.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Rats were tre

Although many therapeutically active peptides and proteins have been developed there is a lack of topical pharmaceutical products on the market containing these sensitive molecules. The main reasons may be lack of stability and a limitation of larger molecules to penetrate into the skin. In this study we investigated the possibility to develop a peptide formulation which enables follicular permeat

We jointly optimize Discontinuous Reception (DRX) cycle length and LTE scheduling to minimize mobile devices' energy usage for video delivery, utilising the now well-established potential to predict future channel conditions in cellular networks. Employing in-network caching, we set a strict buffer constraint which provides zero buffer underflow to improve Quality of Experience. Our study provides

Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death with a 5-year survival of less than 6%. The only potential cure for pancreatic cancer is by surgical removal of the tumor. However, most patients present with an advanced and metastasized disease at the time of diagnosis, leaving only around 15% of patients eligible for surgery. For the majority of patients, palliative chemother

1. Thousands of lakes in the Northern Hemisphere are experiencing a continuous increase in water temperature and colour. While increasing temperature is an effect of climate change, several factors are suggested to drive the increasing water colour, including climate change, altered land use and reversed acidification. 2. In this mesocosm study, we study the effects on pelagic production and sedim

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) remains a leading cause of transfusionrelated deaths. In most cases, anti-leukocyte antibodies in the transfusion product trigger TRALI, but not all anti-leukocyte antibodies cause TRALI. It has been shown that the anti-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antibody 34-1-2S (anti-H-2Kd) causes TRALI in BALB/c mice (MHC class I haplotype H-2Kd)

There is a major contradiction between the current model of international elite sport and efforts to mitigate climate change. This study investigates climate action delay discourses within the sports sector by analyzing 28 semi-structured interviews with athletes and sports federation employees. Based on the two climate delay discourse typologies of Lamb et al. (2020, Global Sustainability, 3: e17

OBJECTIVES: Under physiological conditions the blood flow velocity waveform in the umbilical vein (UV) has an even non-pulsating pattern. Pulsations in the UV have been described in human fetuses exposed to chronic hypoxia and heart failure. Current techniques for fetal surveillance during labor and delivery involve a risk of both over- and underestimation of fetal hypoxia. We aimed to examine whe

Thesis purpose: This thesis studies the subject of exclusivity by examining the narratives of consumers in the subculture of equestrian sports in Sweden. Through socio-cultural analysis of the value of cultural capital, we seek to build an understanding of how myths and stories create an image of exclusivity and influence taste and consumption in the equestrian field. Methodology: In-depth intervi

Thesis purpose: The purpose is to enhance the understanding of the influence inclusion has on Generation Y consumers when utilised in fashion brands. By isolating two areas of interest namely marginalised gender and size, we aim to provide insight into their effects on the attitude and purchase intention. Methodology: A deductive approach and therefore a quantitative research design is chosen. T

The spontaneous open-field behavioural effects of 10 days of chronic treatment with two clinical doses (10 and 20 mg/kg daily) and one high/toxic dose (100 mg/kg daily) of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor citalopram (delivered subcutaneously by implanted osmotic pumps) were examined in rats. Central and peripheral arena locomotor and rearing activities were recorded simultaneously, and t

The circular economy is becoming a globalised phenomenon, but the regional emergence of circular business models differs significantly. By adopting a circular business institutionalisation perspective which bridges theory on institutional work and “ecologies of business models” we study the emergence of circular business models in Japan, a region with recent circular policy and business commitment
