    Sammanfattning : The identification of infectious agents in cancer has been one of the most rewarding endeavors in cancer research. Currently about 20% of the global cancer burden is linked to an infection. A common characteristic of virus-induced cancer is an increased incidence in immunosuppressed patients, presumably because of impaired host control of virus. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Human Papillomavirus Load and Cervical Carcinoma

    Sammanfattning : Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a key factor in the development of cervical cancer. Out of the more than 100 known HPV types 13 are considered oncogenic. In addition to presence of the virus several other factors have been proposed to influence risk of cervical cancer. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Infections in skin cancer

    Författare :Laila Sara Arroyo Mühr; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing prevalence of skin cancer results in that it will soon equal that of all other cancers combined. Sun exposure is a well-known risk factor for its development, but despite the growing public awareness of the harmful consequences of ultraviolet radiation, the cancer incidence continues to increase, implying that other factors might also have a role in promoting this disease.

    Sammanfattning : Human papillomavirus (HPV) infections of the genital tract are now recognized to be among the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases and also a contributing factor to some cancers of the lower genital tract of women and men. Presence of HPV in a clinical specimen is confined to detection of the HPV genome by DNA hybridization techniques. LÄS MER
