1. The Wilms' tumor gene 1 (WT1) and leukemia -new insights and further complexity
Sammanfattning : The Wilms tumor gene 1 (WT1) encodes a zinc-finger containing transcription factor which is highly expressed in immature hematopoietic progenitor cells. A high expression of WT1 and the presence of somatic mutations in acute leukemia indicate a role for WT1 in the pathogenesis of leukemia. LÄS MER
2. The role of mTor in the pathogenesis of tau-related pathologies in Alzheimer disease
Sammanfattning : An important neurophathological hallmark of Alzheimer disease (AD) is the progressive formation of neurofibrillary tangles composed of aberrant hyperphosphorylated tau aggregates. Evidence from human postmortem AD brains and in vitro and in vivo rapamycin-treated drug models implicated an abnormal accumulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTor) in AD brains. LÄS MER
3. Restricted antigen recognition in B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Sammanfattning : Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells are considered to be derived from antigen-exposed B cells. To further explore the antigen-driven selection behind the leukemogenesis of CLL, we performed immunoglobulin (Ig) specificity screening of 7 CLL cell lines and 23 primary CLL clones from patient peripheral blood.

4. The many faces of p57Kip2 : acting in apoptosis, differentiation and cytoskeleton reorganisation
Sammanfattning : p57Kip2 is a known cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor, which has been suggested to be a tumor suppressor gene. Indeed various human cancers show a reduction in p57Kip2 expression, indicating that this protein might be of relevance in tumorigenesis. LÄS MER
5. Actin and myosin in transcriptional and post-transcriptional control of gene expression
Sammanfattning : Actin plays a key role in basal gene regulation. In the past decade actin has been found to be a component of chromatin remodeling complexes, ribonucleoprotein particles and to associate with all eukaryotic RNA polymerases. LÄS MER
