16. Synovial sarcoma : a Scandinavian sarcoma group project
Sammanfattning : Synovial sarcoma accounts for 5 to 10 % of all soft tissue sarcomas. More than 90 % are found in the extremities or trunk wall. Characteristic for synovial sarcoma is the translocation t(X; 18) (p11.2;q11. LÄS MER
17. Molecular genetics of kidney cancer : chromosomal regions of importance in the development of renal cell carcinoma
Sammanfattning : Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignancy of the human kidney, occurring most commonly during the seventh and eighth decades of life. The incidence is high in the Nordic countries and the five year survival is 40-50%. Smoking is a risk factor inferring a minor increase in risk. The best established risk factor is obesity. LÄS MER
18. Approaches for the localization and identification of human cancer genes
Sammanfattning : Chromosomal aberrations have been recognized as important observations that underpin the concept of a mutator phenotype in cancer. In this thesis, two basic strategies were applied to map the location of cancer-related genes in several types of cancers. LÄS MER
19. Genetic studies in early embryos with emphasis on preimplantation genetic diagnosis
Sammanfattning : It has been estimated that as much as 70-80% of all human conceptions do not develop to term. A majority of clinically recognisable pregnancies, which are miscarried, contain chromosome abnormalities. However, data from very early embryo development are difficult to obtain. LÄS MER
20. Molecular Characterisation of Structural Chromosomal Abnormalities Associated with Congenital Disorders
Sammanfattning : Chromosomal abnormalities are defined as changes in the chromosome structure and fall in one of two categories. The first category is numerical alterations while the second category consists of structural abnormalities. Structural chromosomal abnormalities do not always interrupt genes in order to cause disease. LÄS MER
