1. SODIUM/IODIDE SYMPORTER-NIS Abundant and Important in Gastric Mucosa
Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Background: Iodine is essential for development and growth as a constituent in thyroid hormones. Biological mechanisms for iodide uptake and concentration are very important, espe-cially as iodine is a relatively scarce element. LÄS MER
2. Helicobacter pylori and gastric carcinogenesis : An experimental study of some preneoplastic events
Sammanfattning : Half the population in the world is chronically infected with H.pylori. This infection has been proven to be associated with gastritis, duodenal and gastric ulcers but also with gastric cancer and MALT-lymphoma. The aims of this thesis were to explore some possible mechanisms by which H. LÄS MER
3. Mutagenesis induced by xenobiotics : factors of importance and modification, with special emphasis on glutathione and glutathione transferases
Sammanfattning : Genetic changes induced by chemical agents can result in cancer. Such tumor formation can be linked to activationof oncogenes, often through specific, definable mutagenic events, e.g., single base-pair mutation in specific codons. LÄS MER
4. Interplay between DNA repair pathways at replication forks in mammalian cells
Sammanfattning : Cellular DNA is continuously being damaged by various agents of both endogenous and exogenous origin including a wide range of chemical compounds, UV-light and ionizing radiation. In order to remove lesions from the DNA and maintain genomic stability, different repair processes have evolved. LÄS MER
5. O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase and DNA mismatch repair in relation to drug resistance in malignant melanoma
Sammanfattning : Although the survival rate of patients with malignant melanoma has improved, treatment of the disease poses large problems since disseminated melanoma frequently shows primary resistance to chemotherapy. Resistance to chemotherapy is thus a major clinical problem and a cause of failure in the treatment of metastatic malignant melanoma. LÄS MER
