1. Receptors for growth hormone and prolactin. Regulation and activation
Sammanfattning : Cytokine receptor activation is dependent on ligand-induced receptor dimerization or oligomerization and subsequent activation of several intracellular proteins. Activation of Janus kinases (Jaks) is probably the first intracellular event that occurs after receptor dimerization. LÄS MER
2. Current Medical Treatment of Endocrine Pancreatic Tumors and Future Aspects
Sammanfattning : We treated 16 patients with somatostatin analogs combined with α-interferon and achieved a biochemical and/or radiological response in 56% (median duration 22 months). We consider this treatment a good alternative for patients who fail during chemotherapy or who do not want to/cannot receive cytotoxic drugs. LÄS MER
3. Dynamics and gene expression of growth factor receptors in human cultured skin cells : Effects of UV radiation and calcium on EGF- and PDGF-receptors
Sammanfattning : Growth factors transmit biological signals for the stimulation of cell growth and their stimulation may be involved in turnourigenesis. It is therefore of great importance to understand growth factor receptor reactions in response to stimuli such as calcium depletion or ultraviolet radiation, which normal human cells are invariably exposed to during their growth cycle.

4. Targeting Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors with Drug Conjugates Based on Affibody Molecules
Sammanfattning : Cancer is a major public health challenge and the second leading cause of death in the world, with millions of new cases being diagnosed each year. Traditional cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy are many times effective, but may also cause damage to healthy cells, leading to side effects. LÄS MER
5. Midgut Carcinoid Tumours : New Diagnostic Procedures and Treatment
Sammanfattning : Midgut carcinoid tumours are rare with an incidence of 0.5-2.1/100 000. The primary tumour is usually small and grows slowly but has almost always set metastases at diagnosis. LÄS MER
