  1. 11. Genetic analyses of multiple myeloma and related plasma cell dyscrasias

    Författare :Therese Nilsson; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetik; cytogenetik; cytogenetics; Genetics; FISH; cytogenetic; multiple myeloma; MGUS;

    Sammanfattning : Acquired genetic changes have proved to be of diagnostic and prognostic importance in different hematologic malignancies as well as in some solid tumor types. However, although multiple myeloma (MM), an incurable disease, and its proceeding stage monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) are quite common, little is known about the karyotypic features of these plasma cell dyscrasias.

  3. 12. Tumour Survival Signals and Epigenetic Gene Silencing in Multiple Myeloma : Implications for Biology and Therapy

    Författare :Charlotte Fristedt Duvefelt; Helena Jernberg-Wiklund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Multiple myeloma; Polycomb; apoptosis; cIAP2; IAP-inbibitors; proteasome inhibitors; LBH589; PPP; DZNep;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on multiple myeloma (MM), a haematological malignancy that still remains incurable. The pathogenesis of MM is not fully understood and there is a large intra-tumour and interclonal genetic variation in MM patients. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Clinical studies in multiple myeloma

    Författare :Johan Lund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple Myeloma (MM) is an incurably disease of the bone marrow. It is characterized by the uncontrolled growth of clonal plasma cells (PCs) and leads to production of non-functional gammaglobulin. Clinical features include loss of normal bone marrow function, defect bone structure and kidney failure. LÄS MER

  7. 15. Identification and characterization of DNA sequence variants associated with multiple myeloma

    Författare :Mina Ali; Avdelningen för hematologi och transfusionsmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :Multiple myeloma; inherited susceptibility; genome-wide association study; ELL2; expression quantitative trait loci;

    Sammanfattning : Multiple myeloma (MM) is the second most common hematologic malignancy. The disease is characterized by an uncontrolled growth of malignant plasma cells in the bone marrow, producing a monoclonal immunoglobulin (“M protein”) that can be detected in peripheral blood. LÄS MER
