1. Mdm2 phosphorylations : characterization and applications
Sammanfattning : Cancer is a widespread disease. In spite of all research resulting in new improved therapies, there are still many tumors that cannot be cured. To oppose that, also a preventive research approach is important with goals such as decreasing the human exposure to carcinogens. LÄS MER
2. Signaling for color change in melanophores : and a biosensor application
Sammanfattning : Melanophores are dark brown pigment cells located in the skin of fish, amphibia, reptiles, and many invertebrates. The color of the animal can change via rearrangement of pigment granules, melanosomes, in the cells. The dark melanophores can either hide colorful cells so that the animal appears dark, or let through colors from underneath. LÄS MER
3. Xenobiotics-induced phosphorylations of MDM2
Sammanfattning : The aim of the present study was to characterize the Mdm2 and p53 responses induced by DNA damaging xenobiotics and how these responses can be modified by non-genotoxic xenobiotics. During control conditions cellular levels of p53 are low. The level is regulated by Mdm2 and Mdm2 and p53 forms an autoregulatory loop. LÄS MER
4. The Akt/mTOR Pathway and Estrogen Receptor Phosphorylations : a crosstalk with potential to predict tamoxifen resistance in breast cancer
Sammanfattning : Estrogen receptor α content is the primary breast cancer biomarker distinguishing the patients responsive from the non-responsive to endocrine treatments. Tamoxifen is an estrogen competitor with large potential to treat breast cancer patients and prolongs time to recurrence. LÄS MER
5. Phosphorylation of ERα and HIF-1α in breast cancer with focus on tamoxifen response and links to kinase activation
Sammanfattning : Anti-oestrogens are commonly used in adjuvant breast cancer treatment and for a long time tamoxifen has been the main endocrine treatment. Patients who are eligibly for endocrine treatment are selected by the tumour-specific expression of oestrogen receptor (ER) and approximately 70 % of all breast cancer patients are classified as ER positive.
