Mitotic activity index and CD25+ lymphocytes predict risk of stage progression in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-06)In urothelial cell type non-muscle invasive urinary bladder carcinoma, TNM stage and WHO grade are widely used to classify patients into low and high-risk groups for prognostic and therapeutic decision-making. However, ... -
Modeling 3D cancer growth and extracellular matrix properties in vitro
(Master thesis, 2018-08-15)Background: Cancer can be defined as loss of normal behavior of cellular components thus losing tissue organization and giving rise to a tumor microenvironment (TME). Increased matrix stiffness, strain and elevated ... -
Modeling of Environmental Fate and Effects of Oil Leakages from Abandoned Subsea Wells Using an Environmental Impact Factor Tool
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Potential environmental consequences of oil leakages (i.e., continuous uncontrolled releases at low flow rate over a long period of time) need to be taken into consideration in the ongoing development of plug and abandonment ... -
Modelling particle degradation and intermediate dynamics in a dispersed activated sludge microcosm
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Municipal wastewater consists of a large fraction of particulate organic matter. During biological wastewater treatment these particles undergo extracellular depolymerisation before products are taken up by bacteria (MW < ... -
Modular Synthesis of Semiconducting Graft Copolymers to Achieve “Clickable” Fluorescent Nanoparticles with Long Circulation and Specific Cancer Targeting
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs) are explored for applications in cancer theranostics because of their high absorption coefficients, photostability, and biocompatibility. However, SPNs are susceptible to aggregation ... -
The molecular dialog between oomycete effectors and their plant and animal hosts
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Oomycetes form a phylogenetically distinct group of eukaryotic microorganisms that include some of the most notorious pathogens of plants and animals. Through the deployment of a remarkably diverse array of effector proteins, ... -
Molecular Dynamics Simulations of a Chimeric Androgen Receptor Protein (SPARKI) Confirm the Importance of the Dimerization Domain on DNA Binding Specificity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-01)The DNA binding domains of Androgen/Glucocorticoid receptors (AR/GR), members of class I steroid receptors, bind as a homo-dimer to a cis-regulatory element. These response elements are arranged as inverted repeat (IR) of ... -
Monitoring farmed fish welfare by measurement of cortisol as a stress marker in fish feces by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-04)The aquaculture industry has become a sustainable source of food for humans. Remaining challenges include disease issues and ethical concerns for the discomfort and stress of farmed fish. There is a need for reliable ... -
