    Sammanfattning : Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a heterogeneous malignancy displaying varying clinical outcome, where molecular markers today can divide patients into prognostic subgroups. Despite the introduction of new agents for treatment, remissions are usually not sustained in CLL and resistance towards treatment can partly be explained by aberrant apoptosis. LÄS MER

  2. 12. The genetic contribution to stroke in northern Sweden

    Författare :Tomas Janunger; Dan Holmberg; Holger Luthman; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Northern Sweden; stroke; genetics; genome wide scan; association; 5q13; 9q31-33; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik; medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Stroke is a common multi factorial cerebrovascular disorder with a large impact on global health. It is a disorder primarily associated with old age but environmental factors, lifestyle choices and medical history are all important for the risk of developing the disorder. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Genetic mapping of retinal degenerations in Northern Sweden

    Författare :Linda Köhn; Irina Golovleva; Alison Hardcastle; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Bothnia dystrophy; cone dustrophy; linkage analysis; mutation; PITPNM3; PRPF31; retinitis pigmentosa; RLBP1; Medical genetics; Medicinsk genetik; genetik; Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Inherited retinal degenerations are a group of disorders characterised by great genetic heterogeneity. Clinically, they can be divided into two large groups of diseases, those associated with night blindness, e.g. retinitis pigmentosa (RP), and those with macular malfunction, e. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Genetic analysis of murine malaria

    Författare :Susana Campino; Dan Holmberg; Nils Lycke; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Malaria; genetic analysis; Plasmodium; wild derived inbred strains; loci; cerebral malaria; hyperparasitaemia.; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; genetik; Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Malaria, an infectious disease caused by Plasmodium parasites, is one of the major world-scale health problems. Despite the efforts aimed at finding an effective way to control the disease, the success has been thwarted by the emergence of parasite drug resistance and mosquito resistance to insecticides.

  5. 15. Genetic and epidemiological studies of hereditary colorectal cancer

    Författare :Kristina Cederquist; Henrik Grönberg; Irina Golovleva; Gösta Holmgren; Mef Nilbert; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Lynch syndrome; HNPCC; colorectal cancer; endometrial cancer; cancer risk; MSI; MLH1; MSH2; MSH6; genome-wide scan; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; medicinsk genetik; Medical Genetics;

    Sammanfattning : Lynch syndrome (Hereditary Nonpolyposis Colorectal Cancer, HNPCC) is the most common hereditary syndrome predisposing to colorectal cancer, accounting for 1-3% of all colorectal cancer. This multi-organ cancer predisposition syndrome is caused by mutations in the mismatch repair (MMR) genes, especially MLH1 and MSH2, and to lesser extents MSH6 and PMS2, which lead to widespread genetic instability and thus microsatellite instability (MSI).
