6. Protein kinases and phosphatases in B-cell lymphoma
Sammanfattning : Around 2000 persons are diagnosed with lymphoma in Sweden each year. There are many subgroups described for this form of cancer and the great majority is derived from B-cells. The most common subgroup is Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), a highly aggressive disease where only half of the patients are cured. LÄS MER
7. PTEN and Akt signalling in Alzheimer’s disease
Sammanfattning : Akt / protein kinase B is an important cell survival kinase that modulates the activity of a range of pro-apoptotic proteins. A major downstream target of Akt is glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK3beta) that phosphorylates the microtubule-associated protein tau. LÄS MER
8. Pharmacological targeting of nonsense mutant TP53 and PTEN in cancer
Sammanfattning : The TP53 tumor suppressor gene encodes p53 and is inactivated by mutations in around half of all human tumors. Approximately 11% of TP53 mutations are nonsense mutations, resulting in the premature termination of translation and the production of truncated and non-functional p53 proteins. LÄS MER
9. Translational readthrough of nonsense mutant TP53, RB1 and PTEN tumor suppressor genes as a strategy for novel cancer therapy
Sammanfattning : A nonsense mutation causes a premature termination codon in the coding sequence of an mRNA. This leads to termination of translation and release of a truncated and in most cases non-functional protein. LÄS MER
10. Molecular genetic aspects of renal cell carcinoma development
Sammanfattning : Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common tumor of the renal parenchyma. The aim of this study was to further characterize known as well as new genetic abnormalities in a clinical material of RCC, as well as in established cell lines to gain more information about etiological and progression factors.
