1. Polyamine analogues inhibit neuroblastoma cell growth
Sammanfattning : Abstract Neuroblastoma is a highly malignant neoplasm found in children. Although children with high-risk neuroblastoma respond to chemotherapy, relapses are common and an estimated long-time survival prognosis is approximately 15%. Thus, there is a tremendous need for new chemotherapeutic drugs for the treatment for neuroblastoma. LÄS MER
2. Regulation of Polyamine Analogue-Induced Apoptosis in Human Breast Cancer Cells
Sammanfattning : Apoptosis is a defined process for cells to commit suicide through a set of biochemical and morphological cell changes. Activated apoptotic signals converge on the mitochondria, leading to permeabilization of mitochondrial membranes and release of different apoptosis regulatory proteins into the cytosol. LÄS MER
3. Markers predicting sensitivity to polyamine depletion in human breast cancer cell lines
Sammanfattning : In spite of different treatment strategies today, breast cancer mortality is still high and new treatments are therefore needed. Potential new treatments can be found among the polyamine analogues. Polyamine analogues can be used in cancer treatment as cancer cells have a higher requirement for polyamines than the surrounding healthy tissue. LÄS MER
4. The Polyamine Dependence of Cell Cycle Progression-Application in Breast Cancer Treatment
Sammanfattning : In the normal functioning organism, there is a balance between cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell death. An imbalance in these processes results in different diseases. This thesis concerns the imbalance where there is too little cell death and cell differentiation with increased cell proliferation.

5. Applications of multi-component condensations and development of polyamine synthesis on solid-phase
Sammanfattning : Solid-phase synthesis of small non-polymeric molecules has become increasingly important as a tool in the development of pharmacologically active compounds. Of particular interest are the syntheses of compounds with low molecular weight, low polarity and a reduced flexibility of the functional groups, i.e. LÄS MER
