1. Circulating markers of risk and etiology in colorectal cancer
Sammanfattning : Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in men and women. Worldwide around 2 million individuals are diagnosed each year – a number expected to increase as colorectal cancer risk factors become more prevalent. LÄS MER
2. Mass spectrometry based analysis of endogenous sterols and hormones
Sammanfattning : Bioanalytical applications using supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) as analytical technique are of increasing interest. In essence, bioanalysis involves measurement of bioactive or endogenous compounds in biological matrices. LÄS MER
3. Bronchial Carcinoids
Sammanfattning : Bronchial carcinois are subdivided into typical and atypical. Atypical carcinoids are more malignant, but typical carcinoids may also influence survival. In the present study immunohistochemistry was performed to identify prognostic markets in patients with typical bronchial carcinoids. LÄS MER
4. Interaction between Calcium, Calciotropic Hormones and the Gastrin-ECL-cell Axis
Sammanfattning : Calcium homeostasis involves mainly the interaction of PTH, vitamin D and CT. The stomach may be important for calcium homeostasis. Gastric acid is thought to mobilize calcium from the diet, thereby facilitating the absorption of calcium in the small intestines. LÄS MER
5. Endogenous hormones in the etiology of ovarian and endometrial cancers
Sammanfattning : The main purpose of this thesis was to examine the relationship of pre-diagnostic circulating levels of sex-steroids (androgens and estrogens), sex hormone binding globuline (SHBG), insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), IGF binding proteins (BP) and C-peptide (as a marker of pancreatic insulin secretion) with risk of ovarian and endometrial cancer. Additionally, the interrelationships of body mass index (BMI), sex-steroids, IGF-I and IGFBP-3 were examined. LÄS MER
