Further development of a 3D-model of substance distribution in the cochlea after round window application (Project)

The local delivery of drugs to the round window membrane for the treatment of inner ear disorders is a promising alternative to systemic therapy. Since direct measurements of drug concentration time courses in the human inner ear (as required in phase I clinical studies) is not presently possible, computer simulations provide a valuable tool for estimating drug concentrations in the inner ear for...

siRNA technology in mammalian cells as alternative of knock-out mice: Functional investigations of proteins of the Myc-Miz-1-TopBP1-network (translation). (Project)

Aim of the project was to establish a vector based method of stable transformation of mammalian cells with siRNAs. This includes the optimization of vector design (suitable regions of the target gene, design of the siRNA insert), the optimization of the transformation efficiency and the development of methods showing the successful knock down of the target mRNA. Using this method the function of...
