  Process optimization of albumin-stabilized mitotane nanoparticle preparation by dual centrifugation and first lyophilization study 

  Zhang, Cindy Jia Ru (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-13)

  Albumin-stabilized mitotane nanoparticles intended for intravenous application can serve as a potential formulation for the treatment of adrenocortical carcinoma. However, the particle size of a nanoparticle-based formulation is crucial for the in vivo behavior of the nanoparticles following an intravenous injection. Prior to this project, the particle size of this nanoformulation had a mean of ...

  Computational studies on the human GnRH-I and the GnRH-receptor 

  Tran, Anton (Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2022-05-12)

  Gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRH-R), which is a Class A G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), has a vital role in the regulation of sex hormones. The receptor also has a prominent role in diseases, with examples being reproductive cancers and non-reproductive cancers like glioblastoma. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists have been proven to combat cell proliferation in cancers. ...
