21. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors. Pathogenetic mechanisms, phenotypic characterization and prognosis
Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST), the most common non-epithelial neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract, has historically been problematic both conceptually and clinically. Recently, GIST has been shown to share phenotypic features with the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC), including the almost uniform expression of the tyrosine kinase receptor KIT. LÄS MER
22. Genetic studies of frontotemporal dementia : with particular emphasis on the tau gene
Sammanfattning : Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is next to Alzheimer's disease one of the common causes of early onset progressive dementia. FTD is mainly characterized by personality changes such as disinhibition, although there are large clinical and neuoropathological variations among the cases. LÄS MER
23. Molecular genetics of hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer
Sammanfattning : Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most prevalent malignancies in the Western World and one of the most predominant causes of death by cancer. There is a subgroup of syndromes with a high incidence of CRC which is transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion. LÄS MER
24. Molecular archaeology of cancer
Sammanfattning : Alterations of the p53 tumor suppressor gene plays animportant role in the development of many types of cancers.This and the suggestion that the presence or absence of p53mutations might have both prognostic and therapeuticconsequences, imply the importance of reliable techniques forp53 sequence determination.

25. Human glycogen synthase genes. Role in insulin resistance and hypoglycaemia
Sammanfattning : Effective insulin-stimulated storage of excess glucose after a meal, and its rapid mobilisation in the fasting state provide basis of glucose homeostasis. Glycogen is the macromolecular storage form of glucose and glycogen synthase (GS) is the rate-limiting enzyme in glycogen synthesis. Skeletal muscle and liver are the major depots of glycogen. LÄS MER
