1. Tumor instructed normal tissue : studies of potential extratumoral biomarkers and therapeutic targets in prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Sweden and but luckily the majority of the patients will carry on their life without any consequences from the disease. Unfortunately, some will develop aggressive tumors and eventually die. LÄS MER
2. TINT Tumor Indicating Normal Tissue : new field of diagnostic biomarkers for prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Background: Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in Sweden. Due its highly variable behavior, multifocal nature, and insufficient diagnostic methods, prostate cancer is difficult to diagnose and prognosticate. LÄS MER
3. Pituitary Tumor Surgery - factors influencing outcome
Sammanfattning : Background: Pituitary tumors represent 15–20% of intracranial tumors. The majority are benign adenomas, of which 30 % are hormonally inactive, the non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs). LÄS MER
4. Dissecting the Microenvironment of Urothelial Bladder Cancer : Therapy, Modelling and Biomarkers
Sammanfattning : The complexity of the tumor microenvironment (TME) impacts therapy responses and the survival of cancer patients. The scope of this thesis is to study the effects of immune modulation on tumor-infiltrating leukocytes, and to explore the TME of urothelial cancer to provide the research society with new knowledge and potential therapeutic targets.

5. Isolation of Circulating Tumor Cells with Acoustophoresis : Towards a biomarker assay for prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Microfluidics has emerged as an essential approach in the development of novel technological platforms to detect and isolate rare circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the blood of cancer patients. Micro-scaled fluidic systems offer means to precisely control fluid flow. LÄS MER
