1. 16. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in muscle-invasive urinary bladder cancer : studies on treatment response, tumor draining lymph nodes and blood transfusion

   Författare :Robert Rosenblatt; Amir Sherif; Ola Winqvist; Per Marits; Ralph Peeker; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bladder cancer; neoadjuvant chemotherapy; tumor downstaging; sentinel nodes; blood transfusion; Urology; kirurgi; särskilt urologi; Medicine; medicin;

   Sammanfattning : Muscle-invasive urinary bladder cancer is a deadly disease. Mortality rates remained unchanged for decades despite radical surgery.After several randomized trials, we today know that cisplatin based chemotherapy given prior to cystectomy, improves survival for every tenth patient.

3. 17. Chemical Synthesis of Affibody Molecules for Protein Detection and Molecular Imaging

   Författare :Torun Ekblad; Amelie Eriksson Karlström; Per-Åke Nygren; Harald Kolmar; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Affibody; peptide synthesis; protein detection; molecular imaging; Bioengineering; Bioteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Proteins are essential components in most processes in living organisms. The detection and quantification of specific proteins can be used e.g. as measures of certain physiological conditions, and are therefore of great importance. LÄS MER

4. 18. Molecular Analysis of Breast Cancer Transcriptomes, Genomes, and Circulating Tumor DNA

   Författare :Eleonor Olsson; Bröstcancer-genetik; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cancer stem cells; RNA splicing; breast cancer; mutations; circulating tumor DNA; early detection of recurrent breast cancer; sequencing;

   Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is a very heterogeneous disease in terms of clinical characteristics, genetic aberrations and prognosis. In Paper I, we focused on the CD44 molecule that often is aberrantly expressed in breast cancer and is widely used as a marker for cancer stem cells. LÄS MER

5. 19. Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analysis of Tumor Markers in Tissue and Blood from Patients with Lung Cancer

   Författare :Dijana Djureinovic; Patrick Micke; Keith Kerr; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :non-small cell lung cancer; prognostic biomarkers; cancer-testis antigens; prediction model; tumor markers; autoantibodies; testis; screening; Patologi; Pathology;

   Sammanfattning : Despite recent treatment advancements, the survival outcome remains poor for the majority of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim of this thesis was to evaluate protein expression to predict prognosis and identify biomarkers that can be used as targets for immunotherapy or for early detection of NSCLC. LÄS MER

7. 20. Novel imaging technology and tools for biomarker detection in cancer

   Författare :Zahra El-Schich; Malmö högskola; []
   Nyckelord :Biomarkers; Kronisk lymfatisk leukemi; Early detection of cancer; Diagnosis; Leukemia; Lymphocytic; Chronic; B-Cell; Apoptosis; Digital holografi;

   Sammanfattning : Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. Normally the balance betweencell growth and cell death is strongly controlled. Chronic lymphocytic leukemiais an indolent disease that has a highly variable clinical course and is the mostcommon hematological malignancy amongst adults in the Western countries. LÄS MER
