    Sammanfattning : Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor and is molecularly divided into four subgroups – WNT, SHH, Group 3 and Group 4. Two thirds of medulloblastoma patients survive, but survivors often suffer from severe, lifelong side-effects. The MYCN oncogene is deregulated in many medulloblastoma patients. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Preclinical investigation of novel therapies against neuroblastoma

    Författare :Karin Hansson; Avdelningen för translationell cancerforskning; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cancer; Neuroblastoma; Translational research; Preclinical drug evaluation;

    Sammanfattning : Neuroblastoma is a childhood tumor of the sympathetic nervous system and the most common tumor form diagnosed in infants. Patients with aggressive tumors are treated intensely with multi-modal therapy including chemotherapy, surgery, radiotherapy and immunotherapy. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Large scale integration and interactive exploration of cancer data – with applications to glioblastoma

    Författare :Patrik Johansson; Sven Nelander; Rebecka Jörnsten; Lene Uhrbom; Gary Bader; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor, with a median survival of approximately 15 months. The standard of care treatment consists of surgical resection followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, where chemotherapy only prolongs survival by approximately 3 months. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Integrative Modeling of Epigenetic Regulation in Human Disease

    Författare :Xi Lu; Xingqi Chen; Chandrasekhar Kanduri; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Glioblastoma; Cross-species; Glioblastoma stem cell; Dravet syndrome; ATAC-seq; Single-cell multi-omics technology;

    Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor. Standard of treatment prove ineffective, leading to tumor recurrence and an average survival rate of 14 months. This treatment resistance is attributed to both inter-tumor and intra-tumor heterogeneity observed across diverse tumor samples and within individual cells. LÄS MER

  7. 25. PAK4 signaling in development and cancer

    Författare :Tânia Costa; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Our understanding of cancer biology has been evolving rapidly shaped by groundbreaking discoveries. We now understand that cancer is not one disease but many, and that tumors are not foreign objects in the human body but rather the result of changes in the previously normal tissues and organs.
