1. Regulation of growth, differentiation and survival of B-chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells
Sammanfattning : Chronic lymphocytic leukemia of B cell type (B-CLL) is the most commonform of leukemia in the Western countries. The signals regulating theexpansion of the B-CLL clone in vivo is yet far from being fully understood. LÄS MER
2. Studies on Redox-proteins and Cytokines in inflammation and Cancer
Sammanfattning : The redox state in the cell plays a major role in determining vital functions and its major imbalance can lead to severe cell injury or death. Redox active proteins and cytokines involved in this process includes thioredoxin (Trx), protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) superfamilies. LÄS MER
3. Thioredoxins and gene regulation in the Drosophila germline
Sammanfattning : Spermatogenesen är i många organismer en av de mest dramatiska förvandlingar som en cell kan genomgå – en vanlig, rund, diploid cell omvandlas till en nålformad, haploid cell med ett tätt packat cellmaskineri. I bananfluga, Drosophila melanogaster, innebär denna process flera karaktäristiska stadier. LÄS MER
4. Functional characterization of cytosolic and mitochondrial thioredoxin reductases
Sammanfattning : Mammalian thioredoxin reductases (TrxRs) are homodimeric selenoproteins belonging to the nucleotide oxidoreductase family. They contain a C-terminal penultimate selenocysteine residue, which is kept reduced by the N-terminal redox active site, CVNVGC, of the adjacent subunit. LÄS MER
5. Immunological Studies in Malignant Melanoma : Importance of TNF and the Thioredoxin System
Sammanfattning : Malignant melanoma is a tumor whose incidence is dramatically increasing in persons with light-coloured skin in all parts of the world. Due to its resistance against traditional chemo- and radiotherapy, melanoma has been a favourite target of alternative therapies, in particular those involving immunological mechanisms. LÄS MER
