Determining the impact of Heligmosomoides polygyrus infection on the development of colitis by Katsandegwaza, Brunette

“…Currently, established literature emphasises the protective role of helminth infection in mouse models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Utilising two well-established murine models of human disease, the oxazolone and dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) models, I found that induction of murine IBD is highly sensitive to diet change and mouse gender. …”

In silico redesign and de novo design of anti-MUC1 monoclonal antibodies by Dilsook, Kyllen

“…Mucin 1 (MUC1) is a cellular membrane-tethered protein which is abnormally glycosylated and overexpressed in several epithelial cancers. This abnormal glycosylation is hypothesized to participate in the hyper-activation of signaling pathways which promote tumor growth and provides a suitable target for detection and treatment of epithelial cancers via antibodies. …”
