  1. 6. DNA methylation as a prognostic marker in clear cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

    Författare :Emma Andersson-Evelönn; Sofie Degerman; Magnus Hultdin; Göran Roos; Börje Ljungberg; Ralph Peeker; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clear cell renal cell carcinoma; DNA methylation; Prognosis; Clinical outcome; Epigenetic classifiers;

    Sammanfattning : Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common type of renal cell carcinoma worldwide. Metastatic ccRCC is correlated to poor prognosis whereas non-metastatic disease has a 5-year survival rate up to 90%. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Machine Learning Based Analysis of DNA Methylation Patterns in Pediatric Acute Leukemia

    Författare :Christofer Bäcklin; Mats Gustafsson; Markus Ringnér; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer in the Nordic countries. Recent evidence indicate that DNA methylation (DNAm) play a central role in the development and progression of the disease. LÄS MER

  4. 8. DNA methylation in T cell leukaemia

    Författare :Maike Bensberg; Colm Nestor; Maria Jenmalm; Sofie Degerman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : T cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL) is a predominantly paediatric cancer that stems from malignant transformation of developing T cells. While the disease has an overall survival rate of 80%, the intense chemotherapy treatment causes severe toxicity and long-term side effects. LÄS MER

  5. 9. The Epigenome of Multiple Myeloma : From genome-wide analysis to pharmacological manipulation

    Författare :Alba Atienza Párraga; Helena Jernberg-Wiklund; Fredrik Öberg; Antonia Kalushkova; Miguel Angel Peinado; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Multiple myeloma; epigenetics; Polycomb; EZH2; miRNA; DNA methylation; inhibitor.; Experimentell patologi; Experimental Pathology;

    Sammanfattning : Nowadays epigenetic dysregulation is known to play a crucial role in virtually all cancers. In multiple myeloma (MM), an extensively heterogeneous malignancy, the key common feature among patients is the gene silencing imposed by the PRC2 complex through the addition of H3K27me3. LÄS MER

  7. 10. lmproving diagnosis of central nervous system tumours using genetic and epigenetic tools

    Författare :Thomas Olsson Bontell; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Histopathology; DNA methylation profiling; DNA methylation-based classification; Diffuse lower grade-glioma; Genomic analysis; Molecular biomarkers; Pediatric glioma;

    Sammanfattning : Brain tumor diagnostics has traditionally been based on histopathology stains. The introduction of immunohistochemistry stains resulted in improved ability to classify these often devastating tumors. The understanding of molecular markers in central nervous system tumors has improved substantially in recent decades. LÄS MER
