  1. 1. Sarcoma of the female genital tract : Histopathology, DNA cytometry, p53 and mdm-2 analysis related to prognosis

    Författare :René Blom; Ernst Simonsen; Henric Malmström; Olle Stål; Anders Jakobsen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Sarcoma; female genital tract; tumors; MMMT; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Sarcomas of the female genital tract are rare tumors and account for less than 5% of gynecologic malignancies. Traditionally, gynecologic sarcomas have been divided into different tumor types according to their histopathological features. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Prognostic markers in breast cancer associated with cell cycle control, proliferation and angiogenesis

    Författare :Thomas Lindahl; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Breast cancer; TP53; VEGF; cyclin E; Ki-67; MIB-1; p21; MDM-2; survival; prognostic markers;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on potential prognostic molecular breast cancer markers which are related to angiogenesis, proliferation or cell cycle control. A common denominator for all of the investigated markers in the thesis is either hypothesized or previously reported association with the tumor suppressor gene TP53. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Growth factor pathways in human cancer : functional and therapeutic implications

    Författare :Leonard Girnita; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :IGF-1R; growth factors; p53; fusion protein; tyrosine kinase inhibitors; ubiquitin;

    Sammanfattning : The multi-step development of tumors involves numerous changes at genomic level such as oncogene activation, loss of function of tumor suppressor genes and translocations resulting in fusion genes that encodes for chimeric proteins with tumorigenic functions etc. However, in the selection leading to cancer in somatic tissues it is likely that the cancer cells make use of the normal extracellular signaling for proliferation and/or anti-apoptosis to create growth advantage over the normal cells.

  4. 4. Outcome of preoperative radiotherapy in the treatment of cervical cancer with focus on protein expression and dosimetry

    Författare :Catharina Beskow; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Treatment with preoperative intracavitary radiotherapy (ICRT) is used in cervical cancer with the intention to reduce the tumour burden and sterilize microscopic disease in the paracervical tissues. Preoperative ICRT is, however, a controversial treatment regime since it is unclear if addition of ICRT to surgery improves treatment outcome compared to surgery alone. LÄS MER
