  1. 1. Immune cell phenotypes of head and neck lesions associated with viral infections

    Författare :Aastha Sobti; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Human papilloma virus HPV ; Epstein-Barr virus; tonsillar cancer; nasopharyngeal cancer; laryngeal papilloma; tumour microenvionment; Immune cells; flow cytometery; Spatial proteomics;

    Sammanfattning : Tonsillar cancer (TC) and nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) are associated with high-risk humanpapillomavirus (HPV) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), respectively. Similarly, benign lesions, knownas laryngeal papilloma (LP), are associated with low-risk HPV. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Potential immunoregulatory role of T and dendritic cells in cancer : Investigations based on transcriptional analysis

    Författare :Milad Abolhalaj; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Dendritic cells; T cells; head and neck cancer; acute myeloid leukemia; bladder cancer; T cell exhaustion;

    Sammanfattning : Cancer is a complex disease with various genetic and epigenetic driving factors. Cancer cells form a favored microenvironment to sustain their uncontrolled behavior leading to abnormal growth. With standard treatment including chemotherapy, relapse risk is high due to the resistance that cancer cells can develop against chemotherapy agents. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Biomarkers in nasopharyngeal carcinoma

    Författare :Zi-Ming Du; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the most common malignancies in certain areas of Southern China, Southeastern Asia and Northern Africa. Currently, evaluation of NPC prognosis is mainly based on the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Employing epigenetic marks to detect cancer : studies on nasopharyngeal carcinoma and lung cancer

    Författare :Imran Nawaz; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :NPC;

    Sammanfattning : Tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) or oncogenes aberrantly methylated in transcription control regions during early carcinogenesis are potential tools for early detection of cancer. We have identified suitable genes and explored assays based on their methylation status aiming for early detection of cancer: nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
