1. 11. Minimally-invasive breast interventions : methods for high yield, low risk, precision biopsy and curative thermal ablation

   Författare :Kai-Uwe Schässburger; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Advances in medical imaging and the introduction of population-based screening programs have increased the detection rate and overall proportion of small breast tumors. In addition, progress in technology and medical science, in combination with efforts to minimize morbidity, have resulted in the emergence of minimally invasive image-guided interventional procedures for both diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer.

3. 12. Hormones and breast cancer : aspects on receptor expression and metabolism

   Författare :Lars Löfgren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Breast cancer; fine needle aspiration biopsy; tamoxifen; megestrol acetate; SHBG; sex steroid hormone receptors; Syndecan-1;

   Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women in the western world. Sex steroid hormones are implied as risk factors but endocrine regimens are also used in the therapy of breast cancer. Current knowledge about the endocrine and metabolic effects of different treatments is incomplete. LÄS MER

4. 13. Hormonal treatments and the breast : effects on sex steroid receptor expression and proliferation

   Författare :Erika Isaksson Friman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Oral contraceptives; hormone replacement therapy; breast epithelial proliferation; cynomolgus macaques; ER-alpha and ER-beta; PRA and PRB; tamoxifen; IGF-I; p53.;

   Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women in the western world. Hormonal treatments for contraception and replacement after menopause have been associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. The basis of risk associated with hormonal therapies may lie in the regulation of cell proliferation. LÄS MER

5. 14. Methods for early diagnosis of head and neck cancer

   Författare :Sushma Nordemar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Head and neck; laminin5; cystic metastasis; ICM DNA-analysis; aneuploidy;

   Sammanfattning : Head and Neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) is the fifth most common malignancy in the western countries and in Sweden it comprises 2- 3% of all cancer cases. Alcohol and tobacco are known as principal etiological factors but other carcinogenic attributes i.e. viruses and bethel chewing have also been recognised. LÄS MER

7. 15. Luminescent molecular recognition of pathognomonic and aging associated protein aggregates

   Författare :Daniel Sjölander; Per Hammarström; Peter Nilsson; Uno Carlsson; Jan Johansson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

   Sammanfattning : Various protein inclusions have been recognized to be associated with aging and pathogenic conditions, such as in Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Type 2 diabetes, and the prionoses Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Chronic wasting disease (CWD), and Mad cow disease. The causative transition of protein aggregation is the alteration in the conformation of the protein that renders the protein susceptible towards self-assembly. LÄS MER
