6. Identification and Functional Significance of Aberrant Long Non-coding RNAs in Acute Myeloid Leukemia : Biological and Prognostic Implications
Sammanfattning : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most frequently diagnosed type of acute leukemia in adults. It commonly affects people aged 60 or older, as incidence increases with age, and it is characterized by the accumulation of immature hematopoietic progenitor cells in the bone marrow. LÄS MER
7. Characterization and solidification of arsenic-rich cyanided tailings
Sammanfattning : Information on the occurrence of As species and iron sulphide minerals in tailings is essential for predicting therelease of As over extended period of time. Tailings originating from a goldmine in northern Sweden with low content of trace elements except for As were used for this purpose. The dominating sulphides were pyrrhotite and arsenopyrite. LÄS MER
8. Clinical and Experimental Studies in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia : Studies of Treatment Outcome, In Vitro Cellular Drug Resistance and Gene Expression
Sammanfattning : The aims of the studies described in the thesis were to investigate different treatment strategies in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. Furthermore, activity of imatinib was investigated by in vitro cytotoxicity assay, and the gene expression pattern in interferon treated patients. LÄS MER
9. In vitro studies of retinoids and arsenic in non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia
Sammanfattning : Despite advances in the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the majority of the patients will die from their disease. The current intensive therapy for AML is also complicated my substantial morbidity and mortality and, as a result, many patients cannot be given the most effective therapy. LÄS MER
10. Bioremediation of Toxic Metals for Protecting Human Health and the Ecosystem
Sammanfattning : Heavy metal pollutants, discharged into the ecosystem as waste by anthropogenic activities, contaminate drinking water for millions of people and animals in many regions of the world. Long term exposure to these metals, leads to several lethal diseases like cancer, keratosis, gangrene, diabetes, cardio- vascular disorders, etc. LÄS MER
