1. Molecular Markers and Hypoxia in Renal Cell Carcinoma
Sammanfattning : Renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) are a group of tumours that arise from the nephron within the kidney. They are characterised by an indolent growth pattern and do not display overt clinical symptoms in patients with early to locally advanced tumours. LÄS MER
2. Treatment selection in metastatic renal cell carcinoma : Towards an individualised approach
Sammanfattning : Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), a common malignancy worldwide, affects 1200 new patients yearly in Sweden. Metastatic RCC (mRCC) develops in one in three and is commonly incurable. Clear cell histology dominates followed by papillary histology. LÄS MER
3. 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.

4. Molecular genetics of kidney cancer : chromosomal regions of importance in the development of renal cell carcinoma
Sammanfattning : Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignancy of the human kidney, occurring most commonly during the seventh and eighth decades of life. The incidence is high in the Nordic countries and the five year survival is 40-50%. Smoking is a risk factor inferring a minor increase in risk. The best established risk factor is obesity. LÄS MER
5. Hypoxia inducible factor-1α in renal cell carcinoma
Sammanfattning : Hypoxia Inducible Factor-1α in Renal Cell Carcinoma Departments of Surgical and Perioperative Sciences, Urology and Andrology; Radiation Sciences, Oncology; Medical Biosciences, Pathology; and Medical Biosciences, Clinical Chemistry, Umeå University, Umeå, Sweden Background: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for approximately 2-3% of all human cancers. A distinguished feature of RCC is vascularisation and among the three dominating RCC types conventional RCC (cRCC) generally is more vascularised than papillary RCC (pRCC) and chromophobe RCC (chRCC).
