  1. 1. Identification and characterization of candidate genes for neuroblastoma development

    Författare :Cecilia Krona; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; cancer; tumor; child; embryonal; neural crest; neuroblastoma; chromosome 1; 1p36; mutation; expression; tumor suppressor gene; UBE4B; KIF1B; PGD; CORT; DFFA; PEX14; ICAT; CASP9; ENO1; MBP1; APITD1; PHOX2B;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma (NB) is the most common tumor during infancy. It arises from undifferentiated cells in the sympathetic nervous system and is characterized by both clinical and genetic heterogeneity. One of the features of NBs with unfavorable outcome is loss on distal chromosome 1p. LÄS MER

  3. 2. From 1p3 to PI3K - Studies of neuroblastoma

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma (NB) is a tumor of the sympathetic nervous system and is the most common extra-cranial tumor of childhood, accounting for 7% of all pediatric malignancies. Despite recent advances in therapeutics, outcome is still fatal for patients with aggressive NB and side-effects of treatment are severe. LÄS MER

  4. 3. The Neuroblastoma Genome and Epigenome - Patient Stratification and Identification of Candidate Genes

    Författare :Helena Carén; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :cancer; neuroblastoma; epigenetics; DNA methylation; microarray; tumor suppressor gene; tumor; embryonal; neural crest; bisulfite sequencing; 1p36; 11q; MYCN; CASZ1; PIK3CD; PRKCDBP; SCNN1A; TGFBI; DHRS3; KRT19; DUSP23; APITD1; H2AFX;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma (NB) is a tumor of the sympathetic nervous system, and the most common extracranial tumor of childhood. The prognosis for high-stage NBs is still poor, with survival rates of about 35%. Side-effects of treatment in these young children can also be severe. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The role of KIF1Bß in neuroblastoma tumour suppression during sympathetic neuron development

    Författare :Stuart Fell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma, the most common extra-cranial childhood tumour, is believed to arise from precursor cells of the sympathetic nervous system (neuroblasts). Hemizygous loss of chromosome 1p36 strongly correlates with poor prognosis in neuroblastoma and the 1p36 gene KIF1Bβ has been proposed to be a pathogenic target of this deletion. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Exploring inter- and intra-heterogeneity in childhood neuroblastoma and pheochromocytoma

    Författare :Wenyu Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor of the sympathoadrenal cell lineage, which is a unique pediatric malignancy with remarkable inter- and intra-tumoral heterogeneity. In infants, neuroblastoma can regress spontaneously without treatment, while in older patients, neuroblastoma can develop with lethal progression with less than a 50% survival rate. LÄS MER
