  1. 11. Further delineation of molecular alterations in adreno-medullary tumors

    Författare :Janos Geli; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Pheochromocytoma; abdominal paraganglioma; neuroblastoma; tumor suppressor gene; DNA methylation; gene expression; RIZ1; NORE1A; RASSF1A; CDKN2A;

    Sammanfattning : Pheochromocytomas, abdominal paragangliomas and neuroblastomas are tumors of the sympathetic nervous system. Anatomically pheochromocytomas and abdominal paragangliomas arise from sympathoadrenal paraganglia, within and outside the adrenal medulla, respectively. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Defining the Role of GGTase-I in the Development of Rheumatoid Arthritis and Atherosclerosis

    Författare :Omar M. Khan; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; GGTase-I; Inflammation; RHO proteins; Rheumatoid Arthritis; Atherosclerosis;

    Sammanfattning : RHO family proteins control cell movement and intracellular signaling by cycling between active GTP-bound and inactive GDP-bound states. Aberrant signaling of RHO GTPases has been implicated in many diseases including cancer and inflammation. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Novel biomarkers in regulating human dense connective tissue repair

    Författare :Junyu Chen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Painful and degenerative disorders of the musculoskeletal system pose a tremendous burden on the healthcare system. One main reason is the limited knowledge of the underlying key factors and pathways responsible for the suboptimal and often varying healing outcomes of dense connective tissues (CTs), such as tendons, ligaments and knee meniscus, which have vital supportive, protective and force transmitting roles in the human body.

  5. 14. Inflammation and host-microbe signaling in the development and progression of colorectal carcinoma

    Författare :Yinghui Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Gut microbiota play an integral role in the postnatal development and maturation of the intestinal epithelium as well as the innate and adaptive immune system. Gut microbes communicate to the host via pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) which regulate intestinal homeostasis during health and disease. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Molecular Mechanisms of Graves' Ophthalmopathy. A focus on smoking and radioiodine

    Författare :Bushra Shahida; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Graves’ disease. Graves’ ophthalmopathy; radioiodine; inflammation; adipogenesis; IL-1ß; IL-6; PTGS2 COX2; PGE2; CTLA-4; B lymphocytes; T lymphocytes; Simvastatin; Diclofenac; SNP; gene expression; IGF-1;

    Sammanfattning : Graves’ disease (GD) is an autoimmune disease characterized by hyperthyroidism and is caused by an interplayof genetic and environmental factors. One-third of patients with GD develop Graves’ ophthalmopathy (GO). Keyprocesses in the pathogenesis of GO are inflammation and adipogenesis in orbital tissue. LÄS MER
