  1. 6. Analysis of RNA and DNA sequencing data : Improved bioinformatics applications

    Författare :Benjamín Sigurgeirsson; Joakim Lundeberg; Simon Anders; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RNA sequencing; exome sequencing; bioinformatics; gene expression; differential expression; variant calling; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Sammanfattning : Massively parallel sequencing has rapidly revolutionized DNA and RNA research. Sample preparations are steadfastly advancing, sequencing costs have plummeted and throughput is ever growing. This progress has resulted in exponential growth in data generation with a corresponding demand for bioinformatic solutions. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Breast Cancer Biomarkers with Clinical Relevance Identified by Massively-parallel DNA and RNA Sequencing

    Författare :Malin Dahlgren; Translational Oncogenomics; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; DNA sequencing; RNA sequencing; Metastasis; Biomarker; Estrogen receptor alpha; Estrogen receptor beta; ESR1; ESR2; Breast cancer; DNA sequencing; RNA sequencing; metastasis; biomarker; Estrogen receptor alpha; Estrogen receptor beta; ESR1; ESR2;

    Sammanfattning : Women have a 10% lifetime risk of developing breast cancer, and the disease has surpassed lung cancer as the most frequently diagnosed type of cancer in the world. Breast cancer originates in the epithelial cells of the mammary gland and tumor cells have undergone a series of genetic and phenotypic changes that confer tumor promoting properties. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Ultrasensitive DNA sequencing using liquid biopsies enables precision medicine

    Författare :Gustav Johansson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Liquid biopsy; cell-free DNA; immune repertoire; next-generation sequencing; unique molecule identifier; GIST; γδ T cell;

    Sammanfattning : Liquid biopsies are minimally invasive and allow repetitive sampling of body fluids. Analysis of cell-free tumor DNA in liquid biopsies can be used as a biomarker for cancer. However, in most clinically relevant liquid biopsies, cell-free DNA is present at low concentrations, contains minute tumor allele frequencies, and is highly fragmented. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Detection and analysis of genetic alterations in normal skin and skin tumours

    Författare :Åsa Sivertsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :single cell; DNA sequencing; p53; mutation; UV; BCC; pyrosequencing; malignant melanoma; N-ras;

    Sammanfattning : The investigation of genetic alterations in cancer-relatedgenes is useful for research, prognostic and therapeuticpurposes. However, the genetic heterogeneity that often occursduring tumour progression can make correct analysischallenging. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Approaches for analysis of mutations and genetic variations

    Författare :Afshin Ahmadian; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :LOH; microsatellite; fragment analysis; DNA sequencing; pyrosequencing; cancer; mutation; variation; SNP; allele-specific extension; apyrase; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Detecting mutations and genomic variations is fundamental indiagnosis, isolating disease genes, association studies,functional genomics and pharmacogenomics. The objective hasbeen to use and further develop a variety of tools andtechnologies to analyze these genetic alterations andvariations. LÄS MER
