Liu, Dawei. "Target and small molecule discovery for therapeutic innovation in cardiovascular area." Thesis, Université Paris-Saclay (ComUE), 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SACLS324.
Full textCyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) production regulates certain aspects of mitochondria function in rodent cardiomyocytes, such as ATP production, oxygen consumption, calcium imports and mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT), but how this cAMP pool is controlled is not well known. In the first part of this thesis, we investigated the expression, localization and activity of several cAMP-degrading enzymes, phosphodiesterases (PDEs), in isolated rodent cardiac mitochondria. PDE2 expression was mainly detected in subsarcolemmal mitochondria, and cGMP-stimulated PDE2 activity was largest than PDE3 and PDE4, their activities were further confirmed in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes by real time FRET analysis. Moreover, the pharmacological inhibition or the cardiac-specific overexpression of PDE2 modulated mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial membrane potential loss, MPT and calcium import. Thus, cAMP degradation by PDEs represents a new regulatory mechanism of mitochondrial function, and becomes a potential target in cardiovascular diseases therapy.In addition, the recent improvement of anticancer treatment results in an increase in surviving patients, but with a risk of long-term cardiotoxicity. Thus, in the second part of this thesis, we identified cardioprotective molecules from chemical libraries by developing a high throughput screening assay. We identified 6 potent and specific hits and validated them in 3 cellular models. We investigated the mechanisms of actions of each molecule and their cellular impact by using siRNA silencing, western-blot analysis, fluorescent imagery and real-time metabolic analyses. Three molecules could enter rapidly in preclinical and clinical studies in combination with radiation or chemotherapeutic agents for therapeutic development, while other three molecules may require further chemical optimization

Full textLas neoplasias linfoides de célula B constituyen un grupo heterogéneo de tumores caracterizados por la proliferación de linfocitos B. Cada entidad clínica posee unas características particulares y requiere de un tratamiento específico. A pesar de los importantes avances terapéuticos, la supervivencia a largo plazo sigue siendo baja y precisa de un desarrollo constante de nuevas aproximaciones terapéuticas. Uno de los mayores problemas asociados a la respuesta a fármacos son las resistencias. En muchos casos estas resistencias se deben a cambios en proteínas diana o a la modulación compensatoria de otras proteínas o vías de señalización. El conocimiento de estos cambios será de gran importancia para poder encontrar aproximaciones terapéuticas que permitan eliminar estas resistencias. El linfoma doble-hit es un linfoma agresivo caracterizado por su baja respuesta a la quimioterapia estándar. Entre los múltiples agentes terapéuticos específicos actualmente en desarrollo encontramos el inhibidor de BCL-2, venetoclax. El venetoclax ha demostrado ser efectivo en varios subtipos de linfoma pero su uso conlleva el problema de la aparición de resistencias. Varios estudios han destacado el papel de proteínas de la familia BCL-2 en este proceso. Nuestros resultados indican que la regulación positiva de BFL-1 es uno de los factores clave en el desarrollo de resistencias al fármaco. Su regulación mediante el CPI203, un modulador epigenético, resulta en una sensibilización al venetoclax, tanto in vitro como in vivo. Por otro lado, la señalización de los receptores de células B (BCR) contribuye a la patogénesis de las neoplasias malignas de células B y ha surgido como una nueva diana terapéutica en varios tipos de linfoma. Así, los inhibidores de quinasas de la vía del BCR constituyen una estrategia terapéutica prometedora. Dentro de este grupo de fármacos destaca el inhibidor de Btk ibrutinib, que ha conseguido esperanzadoras tasas de respuesta pero que también se ve afectado por la aparición de resistencias. Nuestro trabajo muestra que el compuesto IQS019, inhibidor de varias quinasas de la vía del BCR (Btk, Syk y Lyn), posee un potente efecto antitumoral y permite escapar a las resistencias observadas al ibrutinib. Así, supone un buen tratamiento para varios subtipos de linfomas de células B, incluyendo aquellos poco sensibles a los inhibidores de quinasa de BCR actuales.

Full text”Longboards” är ett examensarbete utfört av Leo Ekbom och Sammy-Sebastian Tawakkoli för innovations- och designingejörsprogrammet vid fakulteten för teknik och naturvetenskap på Karlstads Universitet. Uppdragsgivaren är Space Production AB, projektägare är Dan Edanius, art director och projektledare på företaget. Ett av företagets projekt var våren 2008 att producera Slalom Skateboarding VM och med anknytning till detta växte ett examensarbete fram.
Space Production AB började som ett montersnickeri men har idag utvecklats till ett företag som driver fullständiga utställnings- och eventprojekt. Företaget tillhandahåller allt från idéskiss till montering och servning även då huvudsysslan ligger i att producera, installera och lagra utformning från annan part.
Uppgiften var att ta fram en produktserie innehållande tre modeller av longbaords med bred spridning. Produkterna skulle vara unika och nischade men ändå säljbara och tillhöra ett övre segment av marknaden. Därtill gavs lite friare händer i att ta fram en rad vilda koncept som idébank för senare projekt.
Genom en djupgående researchfas, där information rörande materialkunskap, marknad, målgrupper och kultur, mynnade projektet ut i en kreativ designprocess. Målgruppsanalysen lade grunden till en rad referenskunder vars behov inspirerade och analyserades. Två skilda idegenereringstillfällen lade grunden till en kategorisering där åtta starka koncept presenterades för en sammansatt styrgrupp.
Arbetet resulterade i tre längre utvecklade koncept vilka har potential att bredda den befintliga marknaden för longboard försäljning samt en idébank för framtida utveckling av produkter.
”Longboards” is a degree project in the Innovations- and design engineering program at Karlstad University. The job requestor is Space Production AB with Dan Edanius, Art director and senior project manager, as the project owner.
Space Production AB started out as a showcase carpentry company but has today evolved into a company that operates complete exhibitions and events. The company’s main business is to produce, install and store branded environments designed by another party but also supplies everything from idea sketches to assemblage and service. One of Space projects spring 2008 was the production of Slalom Skateboarding World Championships and it was through this a degree project was created.
The task was to create a diverse product line containing three models of longboards. The products would be unique and aimed at a niche market but yet be sellable and appeal to the upper segment buyer. Further the opportunity to create more wild concepts that could be used in future projects was given.
An extensive research on materials, market, target group and culture, resulted in a creative design process. Through a target group analysis a number of reference consumers were created. Their needs worked as inspiration and was analysed. Two separate sessions of idea generating were the fundament of a categorization that eventually resulted in eight strong concepts that was presented to the management group.
The project has resulted in three developed concepts that could potentially broaden the existing longboard market as well as a band of ideas that could be used for inspiration of future projects.

The thesis is devoted to the scientific grounding and optimization of theoretical and methodological principles, and practical recommendations for organizational and economic support of industrial enterprises innovative development in unstable economy. The paper studies the concept of innovation, patterns and evolution of basic concepts related to innovation, analyzes global and national tendencies of industrial activities and assesses present condition of innovative development of regional industrial enterprises. Prognosis of industrial enterprises innovation development tendencies are made. The notion of economic instability is specified and is understood in this study as being imbalanced through exogenous and endogenous factors. Credit limitation, downfall of prices and demand on industrial production that took place particularly in the years 2008-2009 crisis has shaken the economic development of the country and provoked the decline of industry. In conditions of economic instability with the aim to improve implementation of innovation by industrial enterprises the use of target programming is suggested. Method of target programming is a way of solving large and complex problems, such as the development of innovative strategies for enterprise, industry. A detailed study of industrial enterprises leads to the conclusion that they are characterized by low innovation activity, low rates of reproduction processes and, consequently, high rates of depreciation, unprofitable production. The analysis of enterprises innovation financing sources witnesses that the dominant source of such financing are own funds and state investment. Analysis of the law of Ukraine on regulation of innovation development and its comparison with the legislation of CIS countries indicates its fragmentary nature, which manifests itself in regulation and coordination of certain areas of innovation development and in use of some leverage with those used in the world. A method of target complex innovative programs design which provide assessment and selection of scientific problems for software solutions, analysis of market conditions, complex targets modeling, development of preliminary and detailed project applications, organizational and economic mechanism formation and implementation of targeted research programs is suggested. The technique will ensure efficient and on time development of target complex innovative programs, program implementation and operation, will allow to solve the problem of enterprise`s and region`s development direction in optimum terms with minimal costs.

Full textThis thesis deals with earnings management in the context of innovative companies. It consists in three articles. In the first, we examine whether the earnings of innovative firms are managed and if the stage of development of innovations influences this earnings management. Results show that the results of innovative firms are managed upward. This earnings management seems to occur only during innovative activity (i.e. when firms invest in R&D); the completion of innovations not incenting to manage earnings.Based on this observation, in the second article, we wonder whether (i) R&D expenditures are capitalized in order to manage earnings or (ii) whether the capitalization of these expenditures is reliable accounting information. Our results show that R&D expenses are capitalized in order to manage earnings and more precisely to meet earnings targets. R&D capitalization is reliable only when managers have no incentive to achieve earnings targets. Finally, in the third article, we examine whether managers use jointly the adjustment of R&D expenditures and their capitalization in order to beat earnings targets. Results show that managers use these two earnings management techniques to beat zero earnings and analysts earnings forecasts. However, R&D expenses are either capitalized or reduced to avoid a decrease of earnings

Full textHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a major public health problem, being the second most lethal cancer with an increasing incidence around the world. The only approved systemic drug is the multikinase inhibitor Sorafenib, which prolongs patients’ survival by only three months. HCC is refractory to known chemotherapeutic drugs and more than 50% of patients relapse after surgical tumor removal. These phenomena are thought to be due to the existence of a population of poorly differentiated cancer cells, largely known as liver cancer stem cells (CSCs). Recent studies revealed that CSCs activate similar pathways as normal stem cells. They are therefore highly resistant to therapies and are thought to be capable of self-renewal and generation of tumor’s heterogeneous cell mass. The understanding of mechanisms proper to liver CSCs should allow the development of innovative drugs with original mechanism of action against liver CSC, likely to improve patients’ outcome. However, the development of new therapies against HCC is penalized by the limited number of experimental models.According to these current challenges in the field of HCC research, my PhD thesis project covers three main axes: Development of novel models of disease (IMODI consortium)The Innovative Models of Disease (IMODI) consortium is mainly dedicated to the development of innovative experimental models for 7 different types of cancer. Our participation to the project concerned 3 main objectives i) development of HCC patient-derived xenografts ii) development of new HCC cell lines and iii) set up a cryoconservation method of primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) in the aim to employ them in humanizing murine livers. 30 patients planned for HCC tumor resection were recruited and their clinicopathological data were collected. Fresh tumor specimens were subcutaneously xenografted in immune-deficient mice and dissociated for in-vitro tumor cell culture. One tumor led to the development of a moderately differentiated HCC PDX model, as confirmed by histological characterization. Several studies showed the importance of PDX models in drug discovery as they recapitulate the drug-sensitivity patterns seen in patients from which they derive but very few models have been described in the literature for HCC. In vitro, primary HCC cells could be maintained in culture for a limited period of time, in average 30 days. No HCC cell lines developed due to cells entering replicative senescence, as previously described

Full textBackground: The urbanization that has taken place for a long time has created a majorhousing shortage in big cities in Sweden. As sustainability and the environment havebecome increasingly important, this has led to a gained interest in sharing economy andin new forms of housing from the market and the real estate companies. Parallels canbe observed between the new phenomenon co-living and the collectiveaccommodations that emerged in the 1960s and 70s where people with similar interestslived together. Co-living is a form of housing that has received a lot of attention inrecent years as it is surface efficient, economical and includes more social interactionsthan in traditional rental properties. Real estate companies’ incentives to invest in thissegment can be manifested in different ways. Therefore, it is interesting to investigatewhat strategy they use when choosing to involve themselves in co-living.Purpose: The study aims to examine what strategic role co-living plays for the real estate companies? In order to answer the purpose, it has been broken down in to three issues:- Why does real estate companies invest in co-living?- How is co-living conducted?- What does it require to conduct co-living?Methodology: The study was conducted as a qualitative examination where data is gathered through semi-structured interviews.Conclusion: What has emerged in the study is that the real estate companies' strategy in co-living varies. Interest in co-living is great in Sweden and it turns out that companies see opportunities in expanding and broadening the variety in their range of housing types and in keeping their customers within the company. The companies' internal capabilities and resources have proven to be important factors when deciding a strategy for investment in co-living. Companies that consider themselves to have the right capabilities and resources choose to start co-living on their own, while one company in the study thought it was a better strategy to become part-owner of another leading co-living company and thus gain the right knowledge. Furthermore, it turned out that the companies saw co-living as a way to find new innovative products and services for their organization.

Full textMalaria today is one of the wide spread infectious diseases in the world. In 2018, 405 000 malaria deaths have been reported. RTS, S/A01 the only vaccine tested on a large scale does not fulfil its promises with a lack of efficiency. Plasmodium falciparum (Pf), the deadliest agent of malaria, has developed resistances to almost all chemotherapeutics. It is necessary to understand the biology of this parasite in order to develop new drugs. In Pf, extensive research has now been started to study the Pf kinome and to examine whether targeting kinases could represent an effective mean for the treatment of the infection, the study of its phosphatome is still under-investigated. Amino acid sequence comparative analyses of Plasmodium berghei (Pb), a rodent malaria species, revealed that 6 are Plasmodium specific. Among these phosphatases, the metalloprotein phosphatase 9 (PPM9), a Plasmodium specific serine/threonine phosphatase, was also suggested to be essential for blood stage parasites development. Besides in a high-throughput saturation mutagenesis method in Pf, PPM9 gene was also identified essential. The present project is focused on the molecular and functional characterization of the PPM9 and on the validation of this specific phosphatase as a new potential target for malaria. The gene has been cloned, annotated and expressed as a recombinant protein and its phosphatase function has been characterized. The enzymatic activity of PfPPM9 recombinant protein has been standardised using a malachite green phosphate assay kit and this activity is manganese dependant. Functional characterization was explored by conditional gene knock-out studies as well as by generating knock-in parasite lines to follow their trafficking during the parasite lifecycle (in Pf and Pb). PfPPM9 seems to be mainly localised in the parasite cytoplasm and could be exported in the cytoplasm of red blood cell. Among these studies, we employ CRISPR-Cas9 in Pf to facilitate use of the dimerisable Cre-recombinase (diCre) that is used to mediate the excision and loss of loxP-flanked DNA sequences in a rapamycin-controlled manner. Finally, we solved in silico the 3D structure of PfPPM9 by homology modelling and identified a new set of potential specific inhibitors. We screened in silico ZINC15 database and ICPAL base on the 3D structure. We have tested around 80 compounds for their anti-plasmodial in vitro activity. We have highlighted 3 hits: M19, M51 and M74. M19 has a half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 3,87 μM +/- 0,25 and a unique scaffold as antimalarial compound. Besides, via NMR studies (Waterlogsy and CPMG), we have shown a specific interaction between these hits and PfPPM9. As a perspective, PPM9 interactome will be carried out to determine its target/partner proteins in the parasite. In conclusion, this study will lead to a deeper understanding of the role of PPM9 in the parasite development and the discovery of new antimalarial compounds
Poret, Arnaud. "Modélisation qualitative des réseaux biologiques pour l'innovation thérapeutique." Thesis, Lyon 1, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015LYO10090/document.
Full textThis thesis is devoted to the qualitative modeling of biological networks for therapeutic innovation. It investigates how to use the Boolean network formalism, and how to enhance it, for identifying therapeutic targets through in silico approaches. It is composed of two works: i) an algorithm using Boolean network attractors for in silico target identification in Boolean models of pathologically disturbed biological networks, and ii) an enhancement of the Boolean network formalism in modeling the dynamics of biological networks through the incorporation of fuzzy operators and edge tuning. Target identification, one of the steps of drug discovery, aims at identifying biomolecules whose function should be therapeutically altered in order to cure the considered pathology. The first work of this thesis proposes an algorithm for in silico target identification using Boolean network attractors. It assumes that attractors of dynamical systems, such as Boolean networks, correspond to phenotypes produced by the modeled biological system. Under this assumption, and given a Boolean network modeling a pathophysiology, the algorithm identifies target combinations able to remove attractors associated with pathological phenotypes. It is tested on a Boolean model of the mammalian cell cycle bearing a constitutive inactivation of the retinoblastoma protein, as seen in cancers, and its applications are illustrated on a Boolean model of Fanconi anemia. The results show that the algorithm returns target combinations able to remove attractors associated with pathological phenotypes and then succeeds in performing the proposed in silico target identification. However, as with any in silico evidence, there is a bridge to cross between theory and practice, thus requiring it to be used in combination with wet lab experiments. Nevertheless, it is expected that the algorithm is of interest for target identification, notably by exploiting the inexpensiveness and predictive power of computational approaches to optimize the efficiency of costly wet lab experiments. Quantitative modeling in systems biology can be difficult due to the scarcity of quantitative details about biological phenomenons, especially at the subcellular scale, the scale where drugs interact with there targets. An alternative to escape this difficulty is qualitative modeling since it requires few to no quantitative information. Among the qualitative modeling approaches, the Boolean network formalism is one of the most popular. However, Boolean models allow variables to be valued at only true or false, which can appear too simplistic when modeling biological processes. Consequently, the second work of this thesis proposes a modeling approach derived from Boolean networks where fuzzy operators are used and where edges are tuned. Fuzzy operators allow variables to be continuous and then to be more finely valued than with discrete modeling approaches, such as Boolean networks, while remaining qualitative. Moreover, to consider that some interactions are slower and/or weaker relative to other ones, edge states are computed in order to modulate in speed and strength the signal they convey. The proposed formalism is illustrated through its implementation on a tiny sample of the epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway. The obtained simulations show that continuous results are produced, thus allowing finer analysis, and that modulating the signal conveyed by the edges allows their tuning according to knowledge about the modeled interactions, thus incorporating more knowledge. The proposed modeling approach is expected to bring enhancements in the ability of qualitative models to simulate the dynamics of biological networks while not requiring quantitative information. The main prospect of this thesis is to use the proposed enhancement of Boolean networks to build a version of the algorithm based on continuous dynamical systems...[etc]

Full textAortic pressure is generally recognized as a good index of the hemodynamic state of a patient. In intensive care units, aortic pressure is indirectly estimated via a radial catheter-tansducer system. The present study aims to remove the obstacles to a reliable evaluation of central pressure via the radial catheter-transducer system commonly used in clinics. These obstacles can be due to :1.technical problems occurring between the radial catheter and the sensor;}2.pathophysiological problems affecting the arterial tree between the heart and peripheral arteries. Several clinical situations have been identified in which alterations of the physical properties of the vasculature do not allow a reliable estimation of central arterial pressure using the common radial setting. One of these phenomena is the so called central-to-radial arterial pressure gradient.CATARSI, a medical device developped by AII SAS, affords a solution to the first group of problems by providing an index of the quality of the signal provided by the radial catheter-transducer system.Under pathophysiological conditions affecting the arterial vascualture of the patient, early detection of a mismatch between peripheral and central arterial pressure would also be of great clinical value. In this view, a new functionality could be develop to implement CATARSI. However, to achieve this goal, it is first necessary to understand, evaluate and modelize the precise pathophysiological mechanisms involved in these particular situations.The study contains three steps :1.Experimental evaluation, by oscillometry and catheterization, of AP propagation-time on the human arterial tree (aortic, radial, femoral arterial pressure) during a central-to-radial arterial pressure gradient. This evaluation has been carried out on patients undergoing Cardio Pulmonary Bypass (CPB). Several measurements have been performed: before, during and after CPB.2.Development and optimization of a method allowing the detection of an uncoupling between central and peripheral arterial pressure thanks to AP signal analysis in real time and a potential complementary measurement performed with CATARSI.3.Several central to radial arterial modelling propositions in order to present a better evaluation of central arterial pressure estimated by radial arterial pressure

Taking users as the source of innovation become key issues for R&D in these days. As more and more enterprises build mechanisms to learn from users, such as inviting online users or having design thinking workshops; this research suggests enterprises to engage into the users’ contexts to know the local knowledge of users’ behaviors. Theoretically, this research contributes to user-centric innovation literatures and redefines the meaning of effectuation. As prior research suggests “effectuation” as taking innovators’ prior knowledge to be the source of innovation; this research suggests users’ local knowledge is another source of innovation. For example, innovators may take “Xian Cao” as drinks, tea eggs, jelly and other forms of products; in this case, innovators could also take the Xian Cao drinks into different users’ context and come up with multiple business models, such as taking it as healthy drinks in Malaysia while being the party drinks in Canada. This research also contributes to business model innovation and suggests the importance of social values instead of economic values for products and services. Besides, this research suggests the “critical mass” as the source of innovation and should become part of R&D practices, including learning from users’ local knowledge, curating with local languages, and educating with local scenarios. Practically, this research suggests enterprises to dedicate to investigate users’ contextual needs, value-creation process, and cross-boundary innovation. In this way, enterprises could build systematic R&D mechanism and innovate continuously.

After the government has allowed privatized telecom companies to operate in Taiwan, Telecom industry has gradually become a red ocean battleground. Due to the fact that the customer base is limited (the max number of customers is basically the whole human population of Taiwan), it’s a huge troublesome for the marketing department to find the target customers for the appropriate campaigns/promotions, within the allowed time frame and budget. This research paper is based on how information technology (IT) can help to increase the efficiency of marketing people targeting the right customers within a given time frame and promotion goals, with the aid of a case study showing how the marketing department of a fix line broadband company greatly decrease the time of finding the precise customers after IT steps in. This paper will explain how IT, by first reviewing marketing people’s requirements, then using a systematic method, build-up a data model to fulfill these requirements and also build-up a best practice for data gathering and data cleansing, help to solve the issues of disperse Data Mart within the company. Then, using the commonly used pivot table interface, the marketing people will then be able to pick out the targeting customers within the shortest amount of time. The practice that is demonstrated within this paper should not only apply to this selective company, it should also be applicable to all industries &; corporations with large customer base. I believe the methodology that is mentioned in this paper.

Full textAs ligações multivalentes consistem em interacções simultâneas da mesma natureza entre vários receptores e ligandos. Este tipo de ligação permite uma resposta quantitativamente e qualitativamente diferente da que seria obtida com uma ligação monovalente. Após revisão de vários estudos na área, é incontestável que este tipo de ligações poderá vir a se tornar numa estratégia cada vez mais interessante na busca de ligações mais específicas. As terapias anti-tumorais são terapias muito tóxicas que requerem um máximo de especificidade de forma minimizar os esfeitos adversos. Como tal, nesta revisão bibliográfica esta estratégia da interacção multivalente for abordada como tentativa de produzir terapêuticas anti-tumorais mais específicas. Após análise de vários estudos foi concluído que, por existir elevada sob-expressão de determinados antigénios e receptores à superfície das células tumorais, as interacções multivalentes apresentam-se como bons inibidores dos tumores quer como veículo para direcionamento e libertação de fármacos anti-tumorais no local de acção ou como inibidor directo de determinados receptores alvo.
Multivalent interactions are defined by the formation of several simultaneous interactions of the same nature between the ligand and the receptor. This type of binding is translated into a different response in both quantitative and qualitative matters than the response that we would obtain from a monovalent interaction. After reviewing several studies made in this area, it’s undeniable that this type of strategy is very promising for the research of more specific receptor binding. Anti-tumoral therapies are very toxic therapies that need to be very specific to the targeted cells in order of minimizing side effects in healthy cells. In this review, we apply the multivalent interaction into the anti-tumoral therapies in attempt to minimize the side effects. After analysis of several studies, we conclude that because the receptors and other antigens in targeted cells are over expressed, multivalent interactions can be an interesting strategy to fight cancer trough direct inhibitions of the multivalent ligands or by serving as a carrier for a pro-drugs that is only released into the tumor cells.

Full textO glioblastoma é um tumor agressivo do sistema nervoso central, com sobrevivência limitada e reduzidas opções de tratamento. A terapia standard consiste na ressecção cirúrgica seguida de radioterapia e quimioterapia com Temozolomida (TMZ). Doentes com glioblastoma têm uma diminuída esperança de vida e mesmo após tratamento, a recorrência do tumor é quase certa. Investigação tem sido feita para se descobrir novas terapias que possam melhorar o tratamento standard e o prognóstico. Com os avanços da ciência, as terapias pioneiras compreendem as terapias dirigidas, imunoterapia, viroterapia, terapia génica, entre outras. As terapias dirigidas consideram os vários mecanismos que o tumor usa para crescer e sobreviver, tais como o mecanismo do recetor tirosina-cinase/ fosfatidilinositol-3-cinase/ proteína cinase ativada por mitogénios (RTK/PI3K/MAPK), mecanismo da proteína 53 (p53) e o mecanismo da proteína retinoblastoma (pRb), bem como outros importantes mecanismos de sinalização celular, como o mecanismo da poliamina biosintética. Com o conhecimento de quais as proteínas e genes que contribuem para a proliferação tumoral, pode-se usar o mesmo para sinalizar as células tumorais e restringir o crescimento do tumor. A imunoterapia usa o sistema imunitário do doente para combater o tumor e inclui as terapias com células CAR-T, terapia TIL e terapia TCR, vacinação e inibição dos checkpoints imunitários. A viroterapia usa a atividade oncolítica do vírus para sinalizar as células tumorais e destruí-las. A terapia génica insere, modifica ou inativa um gene de forma a combater o tumor. Adicionalmente, existem outras diferentes terapias a serem investigadas, que consideram outros mecanismos, como o metabolismo do colesterol e a hipertermia. Como o glioblastoma é uma doença fatal, mais opções de tratamento são necessárias para melhorar a qualidade de vida e a sobrevivência destes doentes. O objetivo desta dissertação é analisar o futuro das terapias contra o glioblastoma, olhando para as inovações nas abordagens terapêuticas que se encontram em desenvolvimento. Embora estas novas terapias pareçam promissoras para definir um novo tratamento, existem certas dificuldades adjacentes ao próprio tumor, ao sistema nervoso central e ao desenho dos ensaios clínicos que são um grande desafio e serão posteriormente discutidos.
Glioblastoma is an aggressive tumour of the central nervous system, with limited survival and poor treatment options. The standard therapy consists of surgical resection followed by radiation therapy and chemotherapy with Temozolomide (TMZ). Patients with glioblastoma have a low life expectancy and even after treatment, recurrence is almost certain. Research its being made to find new therapies that can improve the standard treatment and prognosis. With the advances of science, the pioneering therapies comprise targeted therapies, immunotherapy, virotherapy, gene therapy, among others. Targeted therapies consider the many pathways that tumour uses to grow and survive, such as receptor tyrosine kinase/phosphoinositide 3-kinasen/mitogen-activated protein Kinase (RTK/PI3K/MAPK) pathway, p53 and retinoblastoma protein (pRb) pathways, and other important signalling transduction pathways, such as polyamine biosynthetic pathway. With the knowledge of which proteins and genes contribute to the proliferation of the tumour, that information can be used to target the cancer cells and restrain the glioblastoma growth. The immunotherapy uses the immune system of the patient as a pathway to fight the tumour and includes CAR-T cells therapy, TIL therapy, TCR therapy, vaccination and immune checkpoint inhibition. The virotherapy uses the oncolytic activity of the virus to target the tumour cells and destroy them. Gene therapy inserts, modifies or inactivates a gene in order to fight the disease. Additionally, there are other different therapies being investigated, that consider other mechanisms, such as the cholesterol metabolism and hyperthermia. Since glioblastoma is a fatal disease, more options for treatment are needed to improve quality of life and the overall survival of the patients. The purpose of this dissertation is to analyse the future of glioblastoma treatments, looking to the innovative therapeutic approaches that are under development Although these new therapies, look promising to assemble a new treatment, issues related to the tumour itself, to the central nervous system and to clinical trials design are a huge challenge that will be further discussed.

Complicated and competitive business marketing environment is the both the result and cause of globalization and advancing technology. For limited resources, small to medium-sized companies, being continuously innovative in technology is one of the best strategies to stay competitive in the business. The goal of this research is trying to find out how the business organization, with the “inherent factor”— personality specialty and “external factor”— organization culture, influences personnel innovativeness. Totally 569 valid questionnaires are collected, analyzed and used to conclude this study. In which, 275 questionnaires are collected from Taiwan and 294 from mainland China. Most survey candidates are electronics engineers from the information technology industry. With statistical analysis on each variant, this study advises that both properly adapting the organization culture to the business environment and as well as hiring individuals with organization culture senses in mind are the most effective way for the business to strengthen staffing engineers’ innovativeness.

Full textActualmente, a sociedade caminha vagarosamente no sentido de um panorama cada vez mais digital, onde se espera que a indústria bancária continue a ter um papel inestimável. Após um período de crise que trouxe grande turbulência aos mercados europeus, os bancos foram submetidos a regulação mais rigorosa e a restrições de capital mais apertadas que influenciaram profundamente as suas operações. Recentemente, tiveram lugar reformas legislativas na comunidade europeia que vêm abrir a porta a instituições financeiras não-tradicionais que pretendem exercer actividade no sector bancário. É o caso de start-ups tecnológicas especializadas em serviços financeiros, como as FinTech – que estão a lançar aplicações bancárias inovadoras em vários países num mundo cada vez mais digitalizado. Vários bancos de retalho têm vindo a acelerar o ritmo, numa corrida contra o Tempo, reformulando modelos de negócio para propiciar ao consumidor moderno uma experiência bancária disruptiva. Esta Tese propõe os Millennials como um segmento apropriado para que as instituições financeiras implementem aplicações bancárias com sucesso. Através de uma combinação de conhecimentos que derivam da literatura académica e dos resultados obtidos através de uma avaliação minuciosa sobre 195 Millennials que responderam a um questionário online, o autor procura definir se esta geração é um alvo adequado, bem como de que forma as aplicações bancárias devem ser desenhadas e comercializadas, considerando as características do consumidor final.

This study empirically examines the relationship between Technological relatedness between acquiring firm and target firm on rival firms' innovation performance, and investigates the influence of moderators which include strategic alliance experience and absorptive capacity factors on it. This paper adopts the acquirer’s M&A events of Taiwanese high-tech industry from 1998 to 2013 as the sample. The empirical results show that the technological relatedness between acquiring firm and target firm on rival firms' innovation performance is U-type of non-linear relationship. The argument of the influence of prior alliance was not found in this study. The absorptive capacity would accentuate the technological relatedness between the acquiring firm and the target firm on rival firms' innovation performance.

Full textCollectID é uma startup suíça que fornece uma tecnologia que resolve o problema de falsificações, ao mesmo tempo que oferece um novo canal para interação digital de marca, combinando produtos físicos com um ambiente digital para criar a chamada experiência de produto phygital. Uma vez que o collectID não foi capaz de identificar um mercado-alvo apropriado onde suas propostas de valor atendam às necessidades reais do cliente de uma perspectiva B2B e B2C, esta tese analisa a indústria de relógios de luxo como um mercado-alvo potencial para o collectID usando três abordagens de pesquisa. Em primeiro lugar, entrevistas com representantes de marcas de relógios de luxo revelaram que alguns segmentos de clientes estão tendo necessidades para ambas as propostas de valor do collectID. Além disso, embora essas empresas ainda não estejam bem digitalizadas, há inovadores no mercado. Em segundo lugar, uma pesquisa com consumidores revelou quatro segmentos de consumidores distintos. No entanto, embora os consumidores tenham uma necessidade real de interação com a marca digital, eles não o fazem em relação à autenticidade. Em terceiro lugar, as entrevistas com a equipe do collectID mostraram que a empresa deve visar principalmente as marcas de colecionadores e inovadores. As implicações gerenciais foram derivadas com base nas conclusões deste estudo e outras pesquisas existentes sobre a seleção do mercado-alvo. Como recomendação final, esta tese conclui que o collectID não deve ter como alvo a indústria de relógios de luxo, uma vez que não atende às demandas reais dos clientes de uma perspectiva B2C.

Full textEsta tese tem como objetivo avaliar a Dimpomar, Lda., empresa não cotada. De modo a obter um resultado sensato e efetuar a avaliação, numa primeira fase foram apresentados os conceitos e fórmulas teóricos relativamente aos diferentes métodos de avaliação, seguidos por uma apresentação da empresa, análise do setor e análise dos indicadores e situação financeira da empresa. Os métodos de avaliação usados de modo a chegar ao valor da empresa, valor da firma, valor do capital próprio e valor das ações foram os do discounted cash flow e o método de avaliação por múltiplos (relative valuation). O facto de ambos os métodos terem sido aplicados, permitiu comparar a Dimpomar com o grupo de pares, e desta forma ter mais argumentos que justifiquem o valor da avaliação obtido da mesma. O valor da empresa final obtido foi de 13,784,962€ e o preço por ação de 177.04€. Para concluir, este trabalho providencia uma base sólida de análise para o lançamento de uma possível OPA.
