Synthesis and biological evaluation of CXCR4 chemokine receptor antagonists (2014)
Thesis
Nicholson, K. L. (2014). Synthesis and biological evaluation of CXCR4 chemokine receptor antagonists. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4222198

The CXCR4 chemokine receptor is known to be overexpressed in many types of cancer as well as being involved in several stages of metastasis, which is responsible for the majority of deaths in cancer patients. Molecular imaging techniques, such as pos... Read More about Synthesis and biological evaluation of CXCR4 chemokine receptor antagonists.

From bench to bedside : the development of a location indicating nasogastric tube (2014)
Thesis
Elliott, B. E. (2014). From bench to bedside : the development of a location indicating nasogastric tube. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4223996

Background Nasogastric tubes are frequently used in clinical practice. Correct placement in the stomach must be verified on passing the tube and before every feed or administration of medicine. Current methods of confirming placement are limited and... Read More about From bench to bedside : the development of a location indicating nasogastric tube.

The development of nuclear receptor imaging agents (2014)
Thesis
Allott, L. (2014). The development of nuclear receptor imaging agents. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4217221

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a molecular imaging technique which allows visualisation and quantification of biomarkers by administering a positron-emitting molecular probe. The steroid hormone receptors for estrogen and progesterone are over... Read More about The development of nuclear receptor imaging agents.

Immunomodulation within the head and neck tumour microenvironment (2014)
Thesis
Murray, P. F. (2014). Immunomodulation within the head and neck tumour microenvironment. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4216127

Changes in the immune response have been implicated in the progression of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). Evidence is emerging that processes within the tumour microenvironment can lead to immune modulation and subsequent tumour...
