1. 6. The role of the androgen receptor and hydroxysteroid 17β dehydrogenase in breast cancer : Impact on tamoxifen treatment

   Författare :Erik Hilborn; Agneta Jansson; Olle Stål; Yvonne Ceder; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : The healthy breast is a tissue composed of centrally located milk producing glands connected to the nipple by ducts, surrounded by fat tissue and connective tissue. The growth of the breast is primarily mediated by the estrogens, while the androgens mediate tissue homeostasis and protect against growth signals. LÄS MER

3. 7. Preclinical Development of New Alkylating Oligopeptides for Cancer Therapy

   Författare :Joachim Gullbo; Rolf Larsson; Peter Nygren; Staffan Eriksson; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacology; pharmacology; oncology; chemistry; Melphalan derivatives; Farmakologi; Pharmacological research; Farmakologisk forskning;

   Sammanfattning : Oligopeptides can be used to carry cytotoxic agents in cancer chemotherapy, using tumour-associated proteins as the molecular target for selectivity. During the seventies and eighties Peptichemio, a cocktail of six alkylating oligopeptides carrying m-L-sarcolysin, was investigated in a wide variety of human malignancies. LÄS MER

4. 8. Integrating Efficacy and Toxicity in Preclinical Anticancer Drug Development : Methods and Applications

   Författare :Caroline Haglund; Elin Lindhagen; Rolf Larsson; Anna Åleskog; Sigurd Vitols; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anticancer drugs; In vitro assays; Toxicity testing; Haematological toxicity; Primary tumour cells; Species difference; Clinical pharmacology; Klinisk farmakologi; Clinical Pharmacology; Klinisk farmakologi;

   Sammanfattning : Preclinical testing is an important part of cancer drug development. The aim of this thesis was to establish and evaluate preclinical in vitro methods useful in the development of new anticancer drugs. In paper I, the development of non-clonogenic assays (FMCA-GM) using CD34+ stem cells for assessment of haematological toxicity was described. LÄS MER

5. 9. Spontaneous reporting of adverse drug reactions : Possibilities and limitations

   Författare :Martin Bäckström; Tom Mjörndal; Rune Dahlqvist; Folke Sjökvist; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pharmacology; adverse drug reactions; spontaneous reporting; metamizole; general practitioners; hospital physicians; under-reporting; economical inducement; nurses.; Farmakologi; Pharmacological research; Farmakologisk forskning; Clinical Pharmacology; klinisk farmakologi;

   Sammanfattning : Adverse drug reactions (ADRs) constitute a major problem in society and in drug therapy. They are a common cause of short-term hospitalization, prolonged hospitalization and death. Spontaneous reporting of ADRs remains one the most effective methods for detecting new and serious drug reactions. LÄS MER

7. 10. Platelet Adhesion to Proteins in Microplates : Applications in Experimental and Clinical Research

   Författare :Andreas Eriksson; Per Whiss; Håkan Wallén; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; platelets; platelet adhesion; platelet assay; synergistic activation; thrombosis; anti-platelet treatment; Pharmacology; Farmakologi;

   Sammanfattning : Platelets are crucial for prevention of blood loss after vessel injury. Platelet adhesion to disrupted vessel walls is mediated by receptors such as the GPIb-IX-V complex that binds von Willebrand factor and the collagen-binding integrin α2β1. LÄS MER
