  1. 16. Genetic characterization of malignant melanoma and breast cancer

    Författare :Göran B Jönsson; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; oncology; Cytology; microarray; inherited breast cancer; Melanoma; linkage analysis; cancer; Cytologi; cancerology; onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Malignant melanoma and breast cancer are common malignant diseases characterized by considerable heterogeneity with respect to genetics, histopathology, biology and clinical course. In breast cancer, two major susceptibility genes have been identified, BRCA1 and BRCA2, which account for a significant proportion of high-risk breast cancer families. LÄS MER

  2. 17. The breast cancer microenvironment and cancer cell secretion - specific effects on cancer progression and subtypes of cancer cells

    Författare :Emma Persson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; cancer microenvironment; secretion; hypoxia;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the cancer form responsible for the most cancer-related deaths among women worldwide, and novel targeted therapies are highly needed. The tumor microenvironment consists of several components, including different cell types, extracellular matrix, oxygen and nutrient gradients and soluble factors that plays a key role in cancer progression.

  3. 18. Predicting Prognosis and Tamoxifen Response in Breast Cancer. With a special focus on contralateral breast cancer

    Författare :Sara Alkner; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; prognosis; treatment prediction; endocrine treatment; tamoxifen; coactivator; AIB1; PAX2; SRC; contralateral breast cancer; premenopausal; randomized trial; mode of detection; mammography.;

    Sammanfattning : One of the great challenges in breast cancer treatment today is to customize adjuvant treatment to each patient’s individual needs. To do this it is necessary to learn more about the prognostic and treatment predictive factors that determine the risk of relapse and response to a certain mode of treatment. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Patient-derived scaffolds as a 3D model for breast cancer

    Författare :Anna Gustafsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; patient-derived scaffolds; cancer microenvironment; 3D model; cancer stem cells; drug testing;

    Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common cancer form in women worldwide. Many patients will have recurrent disease and more efficient targeted therapies are needed. The tumor microenvironment is a heterogenous complex mix of cells and components influencing critical cancer processes including progression, signaling and invasion. LÄS MER
