1. Somatic Mutations in Breast Cancer Genomes : Discovery and Validation of Breast Cancer Genes
Sammanfattning : Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. However, the genetic alterations that lead to breast cancer are not fully understood. This thesis aims to identify novel genes of potential mechanistic, diagnostic or therapeutic interest in breast cancers by mutational analysis and whole-genome sequencing. LÄS MER
2. Familial amyloidosis with polyneuropathy : studies of genetic factors modifying the phenotype of the disease
Sammanfattning : Background. Familial Amyloidosis with Polyneuropathy (FAP) is an autosomal dominantly inherited systemic amyloid disease. The disease is caused by mutations in the transthyretin (TTR) gene, where close to 100 different amyloidogenic mutations have been identified. LÄS MER
3. Expression profiling using manifold supports
Sammanfattning : Analyses of mRNA provides a condensed view of gene structure and quantitative analysis can reveal the induction of physiological or pathological gene expression programs. This thesis describes a new method for mRNA isolation, followed by sensitive real time detection via polymerase chain reaction (PCR), in order to quantitate transcripts of interest. LÄS MER
4. Cytogenetic and molecular analysis of chromosomal rearrangements associated with neuropsychiatric disorders
Sammanfattning : Genetic factors are important in the aetiology of neuropsychiatric disorders. Analysis of chromosomal abnormalities associated with these disorders may provide locus specific information for the identification of candidate genes and, subsequently, for our understanding of brain development and functioning.

5. Genetic and environmental risk factors of cervical carcinoma in Situ
Sammanfattning : Invasive cervical cancer is the third most common cancer form among women. In 1990 there were approximately 370,000 new cases diagnosed in the world. The risk of morbidity and mortality of cervical cancer among women is a problem, particularly in the developing countries. LÄS MER
