  1. 1. The role of stroma-derived substances in breast cancer progression and their function as tumour markers

    Författare :Malin Jansson; Malin Sund; Daniel Öhlund; Ola Billing; Emma Niméus; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Breast cancer; perlecan; type IV collagen; type I collagen; extracellular matrix; tumour biomarkers; Surgery; kirurgi;

    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

  3. 2. Tumour stromal and demographical factors affecting the metastatic aggressiveness of small differentiated papillary thyroid cancers in Sweden

    Författare :Haytham Bayadsi; Joakim Hennings; Malin Sund; Robert Bränström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Papillary thyroid cancer; Tumour stroma; Geographic information system; Register; Surgery; kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : Background: The incidence of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has been increasing over the recent decades, especially that of small papillary thyroid cancers (sPTCs) (≤ 20mm in size). sPTCs are generally classified as low risk cancers with a very favourable diagnosis, yet some of these cancers still cause locoregional and distant metastasis, recurrence and even death.

  4. 3. Angiogenesis regulation in hormone dependent breast- and ovarian cancer

    Författare :Christina Bendrik; Charlotta Dabrosin; Malin Sund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is a key event in tumor progression and a rate-limiting step in the establishment of a clinical cancer disease. The net balance of pro- and anti-angiogenesis mediators in the tissue dictates the angiogenic phenotype of a tumor. LÄS MER

  5. 4. In search of early biomarkers in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma using multi-omics and bioinformatics

    Författare :Emmy Borgmästars; Malin Sund; Ola Billing; Pär Jonsson; Zelmina Lubovac-Pilav; Oskar Franklin; Stefan Enroth; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Pancreatic cancer; microRNA functional analysis; TPS; miRNomics; metabolomics; proteomics; plasma samples; early detection; risk; survival;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a very aggressive malignancy with a 5-year survival of 10 %. Surgery is the only curative treatment. Unfortunately, few patients are eligible for surgery due to late detection. Thus, we need ways to detect the disease at an earlier stage and for that good screening biomarkers could be used. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Akt/mTOR Pathway and Estrogen Receptor Phosphorylations : a crosstalk with potential to predict tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer

    Författare :Josefine Bostner; Olle Stål; Cecilia Bivik; Malin Sund; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Estrogen receptor α content is the primary breast cancer biomarker distinguishing the patients responsive from the non-responsive to endocrine treatments. Tamoxifen is an estrogen competitor with large potential to treat breast cancer patients and prolongs time to recurrence. LÄS MER
