21. Acupuncture treatment for hot flushes in women with breast cancer and men with prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Background: The group of women and men with a history of cancer and distressing hot flushes and sweating is growing. The flushes negatively affect Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL), perhaps partially by disturbing sleep. Treatments that are effective, tolerable and safe need to be developed. LÄS MER
22. MicroRNA expression profiles in prostate cancer bone metastases : functional effects of microRNA-23c, -375, and -4328
Sammanfattning : Non-coding microRNAs (miRNAs) function as post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression by interacting with messenger RNA. Dysregulation of miRNAs has many possible consequences, including tumor-suppressive or -promoting ones, and restoring or preventing the effects of miRNA alteration has therapeutic potential. LÄS MER
23. Spatial transcriptome and epigenome analysis with focus on prostate cancer
Sammanfattning : Each cancer is unique, and therefore the use of general treatments are often suboptimal. If we can understand the mechanisms of cancer development, we might be able to develop effective treatments tailored to each patient. Our bodies are complex three-dimensional structures and how things are organized correlate with proper functioning. LÄS MER
24. Studies on the molecular and functional properties of exosomes in the metastatic prostate cancer bone microenvironment
Sammanfattning : Prostate cancer is the most common cancer type and the second leading cancer related cause of death worldwide in men. Prostate cancer patients initially respond to standard treatment (e.g., hormonal, surgery/irradiation) but about 30% of them will develop resistance and progress to metastatic Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC).

25. Metastatic spinal cord compression in prostate cancer : clinical and morphological studies
Sammanfattning : Background: Bone metastases occur in most patients with advanced hormone-refractory prostate cancer causing pain, pathologic fractures, and spinal cord compression. Few studies specifically address surgical treatment of metastatic spinal cord compression (MSCC) in prostate cancer. LÄS MER
