1. Genomic and transcriptomic profiles in chronic hepatitis B infection
Sammanfattning : Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) affects >250 million people globally and is the most common cause of hepatocellular carcinoma and liver cirrhosis worldwide. Approximately one million deaths each year are attributed to HBV infection. The virus is adapted to the human host and has developed mechanisms to evade immunity. LÄS MER
2. Genomic characterization of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia by deep sequencing
Sammanfattning : Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children, with close to 200 cases per year in the Nordic countries. Despite recent advances in modern chemotherapies, 20% of the ALL patients experience a relapse. LÄS MER
3. Genomic instability and genetic heterogeneity in neuroblastoma tumours
Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma (NB), a tumour of the sympathetic nervous system and the most common malignant disease of early childhood, is responsible for 9% of paediatric cancer related deaths. Aggressive NB still constitutes a major clinical problem with survival rates of about 35%. LÄS MER
4. Intrinsic subtypes and prognostic implications in epithelial ovarian cancer
Sammanfattning : Ovarian cancer is the seventh most common cancer in women globally, with approximately 240,000 new cases annually. Although a rare disease, it is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy. Unspecific symptoms result in late diagnosis and a generally poor prognosis. LÄS MER
5. Measurable residual disease and clonal evolution in acute myeloid leukemia with focus on NPM1-mutations
Sammanfattning : Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common form of acute leukemia in adults, with mutations in the NPM1 gene occurring in almost one third of all cases. The ability to detect residual leukemia below the resolution of conventional microscopy is crucial for evaluation of relapse risk after therapy. LÄS MER
