1. The use of formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue and global gene expression profiling for increased understanding of squamous cell carcinoma of the tongue
Sammanfattning : Head and neck cancer is the 6th most common malignancy worldwide, with tumours of the tongue being one of the most prevalent sites. Despite advances in surgery and radiotherapy, the five-year survival has not changed during the last decades and remains at approximately 50%. LÄS MER
2. Usefulness of archival biobank samples for genetic epidemiologic studies
Sammanfattning : Sweden has a long history of maintaining population-based registries and biobanks. This has resulted in large sample collections with long follow-up and large numbers of prospectively occurring disease endpoints providing an extensive resource for genetic research. LÄS MER
3. Clinical fluorescence cytometry : improvements to preparation methods and instrumentation
Sammanfattning : Fluorescence cytometry, which can be carried out by flow or image cytometry (FCM, ICM), provides a highly sensitive and specific tool for quantitative analysis of cell material. It is emerging from being a pure research method and becoming an important adjunct to clinical practice. To better realize its potential, more research is needed. LÄS MER
4. Quantitative immunochemistry in tissue sections : With special reference to urinary bladder carcinoma
Sammanfattning : Urinary bladder carcinoma affects about 2 000 people in Sweden every year. It is a heterogeneous disease and for adequate treatment decisions, prognostic tools are needed. Many of these are based on immunohistochemistry (MC) and hampered by poorly reproducible methodologies and subjective evaluations. LÄS MER
5. 3D imaging and quantitative analysis of intact tissues and organs
Sammanfattning : Embryonic development and tumor growth are highly complex and dynamic processes that exist in both time and space. To fully understand the molecular mechanisms that control these processes, it is crucial to study RNA expression and protein translation with single-cell spatiotemporal resolution. LÄS MER
