  1. 1. Radiosensitivity in lung cancer with focus on p53

    Författare :Michael Bergqvist; Claes Mercke; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Lung cancer; comet assay; p53; cDNA; p53 antibodies; Lungcancer; Komet metoden; p53 antikroppar; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Oncology; onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : In Sweden approximately 2800 new lung cancer patients are diagnosed every year. Radiotherapy is used with curative intention in certain groups of patients. The aim of this thesis is to study the basis of differences in radioresistance and the possibility to predict response to radiotherapy. LÄS MER

  2. 2. The role of p53 in tumor progression and prognosis in patients with primary colorectal cancer

    Författare :Ann Forslund; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; p53; colorectal cancer; prognosis; mutation;

    Sammanfattning : Mutation in TP53 is the most common genetic alteration in human cancer. Alterations in p53 has mostly been related to poor prognosis in colorectal cancer, but this observation has not always been confirmed. The aim of the present study was to analyse the role of p53 in tumor progression and prognosis in colorectal cancer. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Primary Sjögren's Syndrome: Studies of DNA damage responses and autoantibodies

    Författare :Gunnel Henriksson; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; autoantibodies; 18 ; t 14; cell cycle; p53; DNA-PK; DNA-binding protein; hypermutation; Sjögren s syndrome; DNA damage; anti-CD4 antibodies; Microbiology; bacteriology; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Primary Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease of unknown etiology. The disease primarily involves lachrymal and salivary glands, leading to dryness of the eyes and mouth, but a wide spectrum of exocrine and non-exocrine disease manifestations may be seen. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Optimizing experimental radioimmunotherapy : investigating the different mechanisms behind radiation induced cell deaths

    Författare :Theres Lindgren; David Eriksson; Torgny Stigbrand; Bo Stenerlöw; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mitotic catastrophe; senescence; cell cycle checkpoint; apoptosis; radiation; gene expression; p53; immunologi; Immunology; radiofysik; radiation physics;

    Sammanfattning : Background. Radiation therapy is an important treatment regimen for malignant disease. Radiation therapy uses ionizing radiation to induce DNA damage in tumor cells in order to kill them. LÄS MER

  5. 5. SOX11 in Mantle Cell Lymphoma - Novel Tools for Diagnostic, Prognostic and Functional Investigations

    Författare :Lena Nordström; Institutionen för immunteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Antibodies; DNA methylation; Epigenetics; SOX11; Lymphoma;

    Sammanfattning : The goal of biomarker discovery is to identify disease defining molecules, which could be used to improve early detection and/or to predict survival and response to treatment. This thesis is about the transcription factor SOX11, a protein discovered in the context of mantle cell lymphoma in 2008, which shows great potential to be used as a clinical relevant biomarker.
