  1. 1. Machine Learning Based Analysis of DNA Methylation Patterns in Pediatric Acute Leukemia

    Författare :Christofer Bäcklin; Mats Gustafsson; Markus Ringnér; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric cancer in the Nordic countries. Recent evidence indicate that DNA methylation (DNAm) play a central role in the development and progression of the disease. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Molecular and functional studies of the BCR/ABL1 fusion gene

    Författare :Petra Johnels; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; extracellular fluids; Hematologi; Haematology; onkologi; Cytologi; cancerology; oncology; Cytology; gene expression profiling; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; chronic myeloid leukemia; Ph chromosome; BCR ABL; extracellulära vätskor; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; cancer;

    Sammanfattning : The BCR/ABL1 fusion gene is associated with chronic myeloid leukemia and a subgroup of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The general aim of this thesis was to increase the understanding of BCR/ABL1-induced leukemogenesis by molecular and functional studies of this fusion gene. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Gene Expression Studies of Hematologic Malignacies

    Författare :Anna Andersson; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; extracellular fluids; Haematology; cancer; onkologi; Cytologi; oncology; Cytology; acute myeloid leukemia; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; normal hematopoietic cells; cDNA microarray; gene expression profiling; hematopoiesis; pediatric leukemia; fusion gene; Pediatrics; Pediatri; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; cancerology; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Sammanfattning : The general aim of this thesis was to characterize hematologic malignancies using gene expression profiling in order to obtain an improved classification and to study deregulated transcriptional networks in leukemia. In the first study (Article I), the gene expression profiles of hematologic cell lines were analyzed to investigate whether such cell lines maintain expression profiles that are characteristic of their primary genetic changes.

  5. 4. Identification and Characterization of Stem Cells in Preleukemia and Leukemia

    Författare :Lars Nilsson; Stamcellscentrum (SCC); []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Haematology; extracellulära vätskor; Hematologi; Philadelphia chromosome; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; polycytemia vera; 5q- syndrome; myelodysplastic syndromes; self-renewal; preleukemia; Hematopoietic stem cells; leukemic stem cells; extracellular fluids;

    Sammanfattning : Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are responsible for the daily and life long production of large numbers of mature blood cells through highly regulated self-renewal and multilineage capabilities. Leukemias on the other hand, are characterized by a clonal, dysregulated, lineage skewed proliferation and impaired differentiation as the result of multiple accumulated genetic events. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Road to Maturity - Lineage Commitment in early Hematopoiesis

    Författare :Charlotta Böiers; Stamcellscentrum (SCC); []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The road to maturity – how do hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) differentiate into mature blood cells? The pathways of lineage commitment during normal hematopoiesis are of great significance in order to understand the underlying events that lead to leukemia, and to the design of proper treatments for prevention and remission of the disease. The route of hematopoiesis can be thought of as a hierarchical tree, with the rare HSCs at the top, transitioning down along the pathways as different progenitors. LÄS MER
