6. Harnessing the power of model systems to investigate regulation of Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase function
Sammanfattning : The anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK), initially identified as a translocation partner in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), has been described in a number of tumors such as neuroblastoma. Neuroblastoma is a neural crest derived malignancy of the sympathetic nervous system. LÄS MER
7. Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase mutations and downstream signalling
Sammanfattning : The oncogene Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) is a Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) and was initially discovered as the fusion protein NPM (nucleophosmin)-ALK in a subset of Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphomas (ALCL). Since then more fusion proteins have been identified in a variety of cancers. LÄS MER
8. Midgut and muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster
Sammanfattning : The fully developed and functional Drosophila midgut comprises two layers, the visceral mesoderm and the endoderm. The visceral muscle of the midgut is formed by the fusion of founder cells with fusion competent cells to form the muscle syncytia. LÄS MER
9. Genetic mechanisms controlling cell specification and cell numbers in the Drosophila CNS
Sammanfattning : A central theme in developmental neurobiology pertains to how the diversity of different cell types is generated. In addition, it is equally important to understand how the specific numbers of each cell type is regulated. LÄS MER
10. Identification of downstream targets of Alk signaling in Drosophila melanogaster
Sammanfattning : The Drosophila gene Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (Alk) is homologous to mammalian ALK, a member of the Alk/Ltk family of receptor tyrosine kinases. In Drosophila Alk is crucial for development of the embryonic visceral mesoderm, where it is the receptor for Jelly Belly (Jeb) ligand. LÄS MER
