• Labeling nanoparticles: Dye leakage and altered cellular uptake 

      Snipstad, Sofie; Hak, Sjoerd; Baghirov, Habib; Sulheim, Einar; Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Lelu, Sylvie; von Haartman, Eva; Bäck, Marcus; Nilsson, Peter R; Klymchenko, Andrey S; Davies, Ruth Catharina de Lange; Åslund, Andreas (Journal article, 2016)
      In vitro and in vivo behavior of nanoparticles (NPs) is often studied by tracing the NPs with fluorescent dyes. This requires stable incorporation of dyes within the NPs, as dye leakage may give a wrong interpretation of ...
    • Ultrasound-mediated delivery and distribution of polymeric nanoparticles in the normal brain parenchyma of a metastatic brain tumour model 

      Baghirov, Habib; Snipstad, Sofie; Sulheim, Einar; Berg, Sigrid; Hansen, Rune; Thorsen, Frits; Mørch, Ýrr Asbjørg; Davies, Catharina de Lange; Åslund, Andreas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      The treatment of brain diseases is hindered by the blood-brain barrier (BBB) preventing most drugs from entering the brain. Focused ultrasound (FUS) with microbubbles can open the BBB safely and reversibly. Systemic drug ...
