The use of Oxaliplatin or Mitomycin C in HIPEC treatment for peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal cancer : a comparative study

BACKGROUND: Oxaliplatin and Mitomycin C (MMC) are both suitable as intraperitoneal chemotherapy agents in HIPEC for peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) of colorectal cancer (CRC).METHODS: Patient cohorts from two different HIPEC-centers underwent cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC with Oxaliplatin (39 patients) and MMC (56 patients), respectively. They were compared for toxicity and survival data. The ext

Systemic sclerosis. Novel molecular and epidemiological features of disease.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Systemisk skleros (SSc) är en relativt ovanlig reumatologisk sjukdom som kan engagera många av kroppens organ. Sjukdomen kallas ibland också för sklerodermi. Typiskt för sjukdomen är att huden omvandlas till fibros och blir hård och stram över olika delar av kroppen. Typiskt för sjukdomen är också att drabbade patienter har försämrad funktion i sina blodkärl, framförallSystemic sclerosis (SSc) is a systemic rheumatic disease with significant mortality and morbidity. Different estimations of disease prevalence and incidence have been presented from various parts of the world. While lung involvement is a common cause of SSc-related death, a majority of SSc patients suffer from symptoms originating in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. By combining data from a popu

Engineering of pyranose 2-oxidase: Improvement for biofuel cell and food applications through semi-rational protein design

Pyranose 2-oxidase (P20x) has several proposed biotechnological applications such as a bio-component in biofuel cells or for carbohydrate transformations. To improve some of the catalytic properties of P20x from Trametes multicolor, we selected a semi-rational approach of enzyme engineering, saturation mutagenesis of active-site residues and subsequent screening of mutant libraries for improved ac
