1. Basement membrane collagens in pancreatic cancer : novel stroma-derived tumor markers and regulators of cancer cell growth
Sammanfattning : Background: Among the common malignancies, pancreatic cancer has the shortest long-term survival. The aggressive, rapid, and infiltrative growth pattern of pancreatic cancer, together with the lack of specific symptoms, often leads to late diagnosis. LÄS MER
2. The identification and functional evaluation of novel cancer-associated fibroblast subtypes and matrisome proteins in pancreatic cancer
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly lethal malignancy characterized by an extensive desmoplastic stroma. The stroma is the site of intricate communication between malignant cells and their surrounding environment. LÄS MER
3. Stromal components and micro-RNAs as biomarkers in pancreatic cancer
Sammanfattning : Background Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients have the poorest 5-year survival rates of all cancer forms. It is difficult to diagnose at early disease stages, tumour relapse after surgery is common, and current chemotherapies are ineffective. LÄS MER
4. Molecular mechanisms of nerve-tumor interactions : the intersection of cancer and neurodevelopment
Sammanfattning : A wide range of cancers throughout the body are characterized by high nerve density and invasion of cancer cells within the nerves, a process called perineural invasion (PNI). Work in the field has shown that blocking nerves in organs with tumors leads to improved disease outcomes suggesting that finding ways to block tumor nerves could lead to new treatment approaches.

5. The role of stroma-derived substances in breast cancer progression and their function as tumour markers
Sammanfattning : Background: In 2020, more than 2,260,000 women were diagnosed with breast cancer. Most patients are cured with surgery and adjuvant treatment, but despite that, approximately 700,000 women die of the disease every year. The historical focus on breast cancer progression has been on the malignant epithelial cell. LÄS MER
