1. Clinical Aspects of Hereditary Breast Cancer
Sammanfattning : A positive family history of breast cancer (BC) is one of the strongest predictors of the disease. Two major BC susceptibility genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2 were identified about a decade ago. In this thesis, studies of different biological. clinical and epidemiological aspects of hereditary BC are presented. LÄS MER
2. Molecular Genetic Alterations In Endometrial And Ovarian Cancers
Sammanfattning : Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecological cancer diagnosed in western countries. Complex atypical hyperplasia (CAH) reflects a state of hyperestrinism and its role as a precursor lesion of this cancer is established. LÄS MER
3. Wnt-5a Signalling in Human Mammary Cells: Implications for the Development of Breast Cancer
Sammanfattning : The Wnt-5a gene encodes a secreted protein that regulates several normal processes in embryonic and adult tissues by as yet unknown mechanisms. Expression of Wnt-5a protein does not cause cell transformation, but it instead counteracts the effects induced by transforming Wnts. LÄS MER
4. LRIG1 in lung cancer : prognostic effects and mechanistic studies
Sammanfattning : Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide as well as in Sweden. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the predominant form, which is largely subdivided into adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas. LÄS MER
5. Complementary and alternative medicine in cancer : from utilization to a randomized controlled trial
