6. Genotype-phenotype studies in brain tumors
Sammanfattning : Meningioma and glioma are the most common primary brain tumors, but their etiologies are largely unknown. Although meningioma is usually benign, their intracranial location can lead to lethal consequences, and despite progress in surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy the prognosis for patients with glioma remains poor.

7. Germline CDKN2A/ARF alterations in human melanoma
Sammanfattning : Approximately 10% of cases of human cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) have been estimated to occur in individuals with a familial predisposition, frequently in association with dysplastic nevus syndrome (DNS). The genetics of familial melanoma is complex and heterogeneous. To date only two melanoma predisposing genes have been identified. LÄS MER
8. The leukocyte complexity and mutational landscape of periampullary adenocarcinoma. Morphology matters
Sammanfattning : Background: Periampullary adenocarcinomas are a heterogenous group of tumours with poor prognosis that hasnot improved considerably the last decades. Tumour morphology, i.e. intestinal type (I-type) or pancreatobiliarytype (PB-type), has been demonstrated to be a more relevant prognostic factor than anatomical origin. LÄS MER
9. Mutations and molecular signatures in human melanoma
Sammanfattning : Cutaneous melanoma is a disease which results from a complex mixture of various extrinsic and intrinsic factors, with some major players still unknown. Although primary tumors are highly curable with surgical excision, particularly those which are non-ulcerated and have a thickness of less than 1 mm, poor survival rates are observed in advanced disease.

10. Molecular studies of prognostic and etiological factors in childhood leukemia
Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in childhood. It is caused by the somatic acquisition of genetic abnormalities and malignant transformation of immature lymphocytes in the bone marrow, most commonly of B-cell lineage. LÄS MER
