11. Integrin α2 and Akt in early hematopoiesis
Sammanfattning : Hematopoiesis is a tightly regulated process in which hematopoietic stem cells reside at the apex of the hierarchy, and produce all kinds of mature blood cells by differentiation to replenish the cell loss in homeostasis and acute injury. In past few decades, much effort has been made to purify hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and lineagecommitted progenitor cells both in mouse and human, enabling further characterization of these cell populations not only in normal hematopoiesis, but also in various hematological malignancies.

12. Prognostic markers in pediatric leukemia and mechanisms of KRAS induced leukemogenesis
Sammanfattning : Leukemia results from uncontrolled growth of genetically altered blood cells. Depending on the cell type of origin, the leukemia is defined as T-cell, B-cell, or myeloid and as acute or chronic depending on its characteristics. However, patients with a certain subtype of leukemia (e.g. LÄS MER
13. Mechanisms of therapy resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a highly aggressive pediatric cancer that can affect both B cells and T cells. The advent of new therapies has increased the cure rates for both B-ALL and T-ALL patients. However, some patients still experience relapse with a variable response to the treatment and display poor survival. LÄS MER
14. Modeling normal and malignant hematopoiesis in vitro. To screen for extrinsic regulators and differentiation therapy
Sammanfattning : The incredible thing with blood stem cells, also known as hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), is that they can restore normal hematopoiesis in patients that need a new blood system. Since a prerequisite for successful transplantation is immune compatibility, it requires large donor registries to find a suitable match for a recipient. LÄS MER
15. Telomerase in hematological and other malignancies : therapeutic implications
Sammanfattning : The Telomere is a nucleoprotein complex consisting of TTAGGG repeated sequences covered by specialized binding proteins termed shelterins masking the end of linear chromosomes and thereby protecting the end of the chromosome from genomic instability. Telomeres become progressively shortened during cellular replication and acts as a mitotic clock to confer a limited lifespan to normal cells. LÄS MER
