  1. 6. Receptor tyrosine kinase c-Kit signalling in hematopoietic progenitor cells

    Författare :Charlotte Edling; Bengt Hallberg; Pontus Aspenström; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; RTK; c-Kit; MAPK; PI3K; PKC; hematopoietic cells; proliferation; differentiation; apoptosis; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : The receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) c-Kit is expressed in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, mast cells and in several non-hematopoietic tissues. In the hematopoietic system c-Kit and its ligand Steel Factor (SF, aka Stem Cell Factor) are critical for proliferation, survival and differentiation. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Cell-autonomous and paracrine mechanisms underlying Pik3ca-driven vascular malformations

    Författare :Milena Petkova; Taija Mäkinen; Ebba Bråkenhielm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; PI3K; PI3KCA; lymphatic malformations; H1047R;

    Sammanfattning : Vascular malformation is a benign overgrowth of blood or lymphatic vessels leading to life-threatening consequences for affected patients. Activating mutations in the TIE2 receptor cause the majority of venous malformations (VMs), while somatic activating mutations in PIK3CA, leading to the overactivation of the PI3K-AKT pathway, cause both VMs and lymphatic malformations (LMs).

  4. 8. Mechanisms of Integrin Signal Transduction

    Författare :Anne Stefansson; Staffan Johansson; Annika Armulik; Björn Öbrink; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Cell biology; Integrin; Integrin signalling; PI3K; Akt PKB; Integrin transmembrane domain; cell spreading; Cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Integrins are a protein family of cell surface receptors, expressed in all cell types in the human body, except the red blood cells. Besides their importance in mediating physical connections with the surrounding environment, the integrin family members are also vital signalling mediators. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Reversal of thyroid dedifferentiation and an invasive phenotype by small molecule kinase inhibitors: an experimental study on normal and malignant cells

    Författare :Camilla Ingeson-Carlsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; thyroid; cancer; NIS; MAPK; PI3K; BRAFV600E; migration; 3D culture;

    Sammanfattning : Refractoriness to I-131 in dedifferentiated thyroid cancer is a great concern that restricts radioiodine therapy. There is also a lack of knowledge in understanding the mechanisms leading to repressed sodium iodide symporter (NIS) expression and impaired iodide uptake in tumor cells. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Transcriptional Regulation of HIF2A/EPAS1 in Neuroblastoma

    Författare :Arash Hamidian; Avdelningen för translationell cancerforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; HIF-2α; enChIP; ESRRA; mTORC2; IGF-II; Hypoxia; Cancer; PI3K; Transcription; Neuroblastoma;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is a childhood tumor of the developing sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and is the most commonly diagnosed form of cancer in children before one year of age. Although survival curves have improved for these patients during the past decades, the conventional regimen of neuroblastoma treatment has clearly reached a plateau of efficiency with regard to increasing the survival rates of high-risk children.
