  1. 1. Pharmacological and genetic manipulation of adipose cell differentiation and metabolism

    Författare :Milica Vranic; Maria J. Pereira; Jan Eriksson; Niklas Mejhert; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; adipose tissue; adipocyte; type 2 diabetes; CRISP Cas9; FKBP51; CDKN2C; second-generation antipsychotics; glucocorticoids; dopamine; dopamine receptor;

    Sammanfattning : Adipose tissue dysfunction has a pivotal role in the development of obesity and related metabolic complications, such as insulin resistance, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. The overall aim was to study the consequences of adipose exposure to pharmacological agents, as well as dysregulations in the expression of genes, potentially involved in adipose tissue dysfunction and related metabolic impairments.

    Sammanfattning : Pancreatic endocrine tumors (PETs) may cause typical syndromes of hormone excess, or appear clinically non-functioning without hormonal symptoms. PETs occur sporadically, in association with the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome, or rarely the von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Role of the CDKN2A and related cell cycle regulatory genes in melanoma and other human cancers

    Författare :Johanna Smeds; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :CDKN2A; ARF; p53; cell cycle regulation; mutation; melanoma; esophageal squamous cell carcinoma;

    Sammanfattning : The main objective of this thesis has been to investigate the involvement of the CDKN2A (p16INK4a and p14ARF) and related cell cycle regulatory genes in melanoma and other types of human cancer. The CDKN2A gene represents a unique locus in the entire human genome. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Outcomes of Myosin 1C Gene Expression Depletion on Cancer-related Pathways, in Vitro and in Clinical Samples

    Författare :Anna Pfister; Afrouz Behboudi; Sahlgrenska Academy at University of Gothenburg; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MYO1C; myosin 1C; gene expression; pathway analysis; endometrial carcinoma;

    Sammanfattning : The unconventional myosin IC has previously been suggested to be a haploinsufficient tumour suppressor. The mechanism for this action has hitherto been unknown, however, and hence we decided to attempt to elucidate the genes involved. LÄS MER
