  1. 11. Neuroendocrine tumors of the digestive system : Modulation of apoptosis and factors associated with growth regulation during biotherapies

    Författare :S. A. Hassan Imam; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Medical sciences; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicine; medicin;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroendocrine tumors of the gut have the potential to create life-threatening syndromes which become difficult to treat. Tumor mass reduction, by medical therapy, is one of the choices of treatments. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Tumors of the thyroid gland are common among the general population, but only a small proportion is malignant. The vast majority of thyroid tumors are benign, so called follicular adenomas. Sometimes subtypes such as atypical adenomas and adenomas with oxyphil, i.e. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Vesicle proteins as markers for neuroendocrine tumors

    Sammanfattning : The neuroendocrine (NE) tumours comprise a diversity of tumours which share commonproperties, e.g. the capacity to produce, store and release hormones. A prominent feature ofthe NE phenotype is the production of secretory granules with associated vescicle proteins,e. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Endocrine signaling and molecular aberrations in primary hyperparathyroidism

    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Primary hyperparathyroidism is a common endocrine disorder, characterized by an inappropriate increase in serum parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. It is most often caused by a single benign parathyroid tumor. LÄS MER
