  1. 1. p63 and epithelial homeostasis : studies of p63 under normal, hyper-proliferative and malignant conditions

    Författare :Xiaolian Gu; Karin Nylander; Antonio Costanzo; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; p63; psoriasis; SCCHN; epithelium; homeostasis; Pathology; Patologi; patologi; Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The p63 gene is a member of the p53 transcription factor family and can produce six different proteins using two promoters and differential splicing. Expression of p63 is required for proper formation of epithelial tissues. LÄS MER

  3. 2. p63 – from expression to function : studies of normal oral mucosa and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

    Författare :Niklas Thurfjell; Karin Nylander; Phillip Coates; Göran Roos; Luisa Guerrini; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; p63; SCCHN; p53; BRCA1; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : The human p63 gene discovered in 1997 encodes a series of protein isoforms that differ in their N- and/or C-terminal sequences. These isoforms have widely differing properties in promoting or repressing p53-related functions such as growth arrest and apoptosis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. p63 and potential p63 targets in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

    Författare :Linda Boldrup; Karin Nylander; Wendy Weinberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; SCCHN; p63; Cox-2; EGFR; β-catenin; PP2A; p53; Tumour biology; Tumörbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), the 6th most common cancer worldwide, has a low 5-year survival. Disease as well as treatment often causes patients severe functional and aesthetic problems. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Wilms' tumor gene 1 in different types of cancer

    Författare :Xingru Li; Aihong Li; Karin Nylander; Eva Lundin; Xiaolian Gu; David M. Loeb; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; WT1; AML; MRD; ccRCC; SNPs; DNA methylation; SCCHN; p63; Clinical Chemistry; klinisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The Wilms’ tumor gene 1 (WT1) was first reported as a tumor suppressor gene in Wilms’ tumor. However, later studies have shown the oncogenic properties of WT1 in a variety of tumors. It was recently proposed that WT1 was a chameleon gene, due to its dual functions in tumorigenesis. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies of p63 and p63 related proteins in patients diagnosed with oral lichen planus

    Författare :Majid Ebrahimi; Karin Nylander; Isaac Van der waal; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the oral mucosa and also one of the more common mucosal conditions mostly affecting middle aged individuals. Even though OLP is well investigated the etiology of this disease is still unknown, even if autoimmunity as a possible etiologic factor has been suggested. LÄS MER
