1. Quiescent cancer cells : Three-dimensional cell models for evaluation of new therapeutics
Sammanfattning : Inadequate metabolic conditions in solid tumors lead to the formation of quiescent cancer cells that are suspended in a transient cell cycle arrest. When conditions change, quiescent cancer cells can re-enter the cell cycle and cause recurrence. LÄS MER
2. Role of mitochondria in early molecular diagnosis and prognosis of cancer
Sammanfattning : Background:Earlier clinical detection of cancer may improve survival as well as offer opportunities for less invasive treatment options. This thesis explores whether the mitochondria and its related genes in the nuclear genome can be used as novel methods for the diagnosis and prognosis of cancers. LÄS MER
3. Identifying Essential Deubiquitinase Interactions and Targeting Protein Ubiquitination in Cancer
Sammanfattning : Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally and is one of the most pressing health issues today. While significant advances have been made in cancer treatment, drug resistance and toxicity remain formidable obstacles to successful therapy. Thus, there is a need to find novel targets that pave the way for new cancer therapeutics. LÄS MER
4. LTD4 signalling via beta-catenin: a possible link between inflammation and cancer
Sammanfattning : The pro-inflammatory mediator LTD4 is an important component in the pathogenesis of inflammatory conditions as inflammatory bowel diseases. Patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases face an increased risk of intestinal cancer development. LÄS MER
5. Regulation of Polyamine Analogue-Induced Apoptosis in Human Breast Cancer Cells
Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a defined process for cells to commit suicide through a set of biochemical and morphological cell changes. Activated apoptotic signals converge on the mitochondria, leading to permeabilization of mitochondrial membranes and release of different apoptosis regulatory proteins into the cytosol. LÄS MER
