11. Identification and characterization of novel mammalian alcohol dehydrogenases
Sammanfattning : The vertebrate medium chain alcohol dehydrogenases are dimeric zinc metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible oxidation/reduction of alcohols/aldehydes using NAD+/NADH as coenzyme. In mammals, six classes of ADH have been defined (ADH1-ADH6) whereof five have been identified in humans. LÄS MER
12. Alterations of the short arm of chromosome 9p in lymphoid malignancies
Sammanfattning : Malignant disease evolves through the successive accumulation of genetic lesions affecting growth-controlling genes in the cell-clone undergoing malignant transformation. 9p21 has long been suspected to harbour a tumour suppressor gene, because of frequent deletions of this region in malignancies including acute lymphocytic leukaemia (ALL).

13. Molecular studies in breast cancer susceptibility genes
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women, with a cumulative risk of approximately 12% by the age of 85. Of the breast cancer cases, 5-10% are hereditary. LÄS MER
14. Inflammatory transcription factors in atherosclerosis
Sammanfattning : Transcription factors such as nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB), activator protein-1 (AP-1) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) may play important roles in atherogenesis, by regulating chronic subclinical vascular inflammation. In the first study, we showed that VLDL activates the proinflammatory transcription factor NF-kB in endothelial cells both in vitro and in vivo. LÄS MER
