1. Hypoxia and Hypoxia-Inducible Factors in Normal and Malignant Breast Epithelium
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer treatment is based on tumor and patient related factors such as tumor stage, grade, hormonal status, HER2 status, patient age, and family history to name a few. It is today widely acknowledged that hypoxia and hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF:s) contribute to tumor progression. LÄS MER
2. The role of the lymph node stroma in cancer and aging
Sammanfattning : The function of the lymph node (LN) stroma is crucial for the induction of an adaptive immune response. The stroma includes lymphatic vessels, high endothelial venules (HEVs) and mesenchymal cells (MCs). In this thesis, I have been investigating the role of the LN stroma in cancer and aging. LÄS MER
3. Investigations of Leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domain-proteins 1 and 2 (LRIG1 and LRIG2) and their genes in cancer
Sammanfattning : The mammalian leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains (LRIG) gene family consists of three different members, LRIG1, LRIG2, and LRIG3. These genes are expressed in all human and mouse tissues analyzed to date. LÄS MER
4. The breast cancer microenvironment and cancer cell secretion - specific effects on cancer progression and subtypes of cancer cells
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the cancer form responsible for the most cancer-related deaths among women worldwide, and novel targeted therapies are highly needed. The tumor microenvironment consists of several components, including different cell types, extracellular matrix, oxygen and nutrient gradients and soluble factors that plays a key role in cancer progression.

5. Transcriptional Regulation by Hypoxia-Inducible Factors in Tumor Cells
Sammanfattning : Cancer is a major cause of human morbidity and mortality, and the risk of developing cancer is about one in three life times. Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor among children and arises from early sympathetic nervous system (SNS) cells arrested in their development. LÄS MER
