1. Investigations of Proneural Glioblastoma to Identify Novel Therapeutic Targets
Sammanfattning : Malignant glioma is a highly lethal and destructive disease with no proper cure. We have investigated some of the hallmarks of cancer in connection to glioma and found ways to disrupt these and prevent tumor growth. The work is done within the context of a glioma subtype distinguished by activation of PDGF signaling termed the proneural subtype. LÄS MER
2. Intratumoral heterogeneity in glioblastoma: subtype transition and cell-to-cell communication
Sammanfattning : Glioblastoma is a most aggressive brain tumor with a median overall survival of less than two years. The current treatment is surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. However, glioblastoma is difficult to treat and recurs some time after treatment. LÄS MER
3. Generation of midbrain dopaminergic neurons in vivo and in vitro: the role of Neurogenin2
Sammanfattning : Parkinsons disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder where dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra (SNc) in the mesencephalon are progressively eliminated. The ensuing loss of dopaminergic innervation of the basal ganglia manifests itself as severe motor deficits in PD patients. LÄS MER
4. Regulation of midbrain dopaminergic neuron development by Wnts, sFRPs and bHLH proteins
Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder. The main pathology is characterized by progressive degeneration of the dopaminergic (DA) neurons of the substantia nigra leading to loss of striatal dopamine innervation. The knowledge about the fundamental mechanisms behind the degenerative process has been limited. LÄS MER
5. Regional control of cell fate determination and neurogenesis in the developing CNS
Sammanfattning : The development of a functional central nervous system relies on the generation of distinct neuronal subtypes in a spatially and temporally defined order. The spatial organisation is achieved at early developmental time points when neural progenitor cells encounter fields of secreted morphogenic signalling molecules along the anterioposterior and dorsoventral axes of the embryo.
