11. Studies on molecular and immune signatures for detection of pancreatic cancer and COVID-19
Sammanfattning : Background and objectives: Etiological factors and accurate diagnostic biomarkers have remained elusive to pancreatic cancer, a disease with > 90% five-years mortality rate. The recent understanding of microbiome interaction with host organs has opened new research avenues on the potential role of microbiota in the tumor microenvironment. LÄS MER
12. Intraoperative scintigraphic detection of abdominal endocrine tumors : Development and evaluation of hand held gamma sensitive probes for¹¹¹In
Sammanfattning : Surgery of endocrine tumors benefit from accurate pre and- intraoperative localization methods,and scintigraphy has become an important contribution in this respect. In the present thesis therequisites for scintigraphic localization of abdominal endocrine tumors and new detectors forintraoperative gammadetection are evaluated. LÄS MER
13. Improvement of the diagnosis and management of cystic tumors of the pancreas
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic cancer is on its course on becoming the second cause of cancer related mortality. Although improvements have been made in the treatment arsenal, still only a minority of patients are able to receive treatment with curative intention. LÄS MER
14. High-molecular-weight insulin-like growth factor 2 : immunohistochemical, ultrastructural and biochemical findings in insulin cells under normal, diabetic, and neoplastic conditions, and its role in non-islet cell tumour hypoglycaemia
Sammanfattning : IGF-2 immunoreactive (IR) cells were identified in the normal adult pancreas of man and rat and occurred exclusively in insulin-producing cells. When frozen human pancreatic tissue was extracted and gel-size-separated, a high-molecular-weight (HMW) IGF-2 peptide could be identified. LÄS MER
15. Gender differences in chemical carcinogenesis
Sammanfattning : Gender differences in cancer incidence and mortality is a regular finding in epidemiological studies. In addition to reproductive organs this pattern is also seen in non-reproductive organs, with men being the most affected gender for the majority of cancer-sites. LÄS MER
