  1. 1. Profiling of Small Intestine Neuroendocrine Tumors

    Författare :Ellinor Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; small intestine neuroendocrine tumor; somatic copy number alteration; expression profiling; APLP1; survival; targeted therapy;

    Sammanfattning : Small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) are malignant neoplasms usually presenting with disseminated disease and symptoms of hormone overproduction. Radical surgery is curative but can only be performed for localized disease. For most patients the disease follows a progressive and fatal course. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Genome dynamics and virulence in the human pathogen Candida glabrata

    Författare :Khadija Mohamed Ahmad; Molekylär cellbiologi; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Pathogenic yeast; Candida glabrata; small chromosomes; Genome rearrangement; Haploid and diploid yeast; RNA interference.;

    Sammanfattning : Although the yeast Candida glabrata is considered to be a part of the commensal microflora in healthy individuals, during the last years it has been frequently isolated from patients with mucosal and systemic fungal infections. Now it is considered as the second most frequently isolated pathogenic yeast after Candida albicans. Despite its name, C. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Structural chromosomal aberrations and neuropsychiatric disorders

    Författare :Tonnie Johannesson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Autism spectrum disorders; chromosomes; FISH; balanced; translocations;

    Sammanfattning : Infantile autism (IA) is a severe neurodevelopment disorder with a complex genetic predisposition. The underlying causes of autism are still not understood. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The genetic architecture of sexual dimorphism

    Författare :Robert Griffin; Urban Friberg; Alexei Maklakov; Jon Ågren; Russell Bonduriansky; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Drosophila melanogaster; evolution; intralocus sexual conflict; sex chromosomes; sexually antagonistic selection; sexual dimorphism;

    Sammanfattning : Phenotypic differences between the sexes evolve largely because selection favours a different complement of traits in either sex. Theory suggests that, despite its frequency, sexual dimorphism should be generally constrained from evolving because the sexes share much of their genome. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Molecular aspects of tumor development and treatment for small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors

    Författare :Omid Fotouhi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) may cause symptoms due to excess secretion of hormones and peptides. The molecular mechanisms behind development of SINETs are not well understood. Copy number alterations, especially loss of chromosome 18q, have been reported and recently p27 mutations were implicated in SI-NET tumorigenesis. LÄS MER
