  1. 1. Pancreatic Endocrine Tumourigenesis : Genes of potential importance

    Författare :Térèse A. Johansson; Barbro Eriksson; Britt Skogseid; Gunnar Westin; Martin Bäckdahl; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pancreatic endocrine tumour; Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1; Tumourigenesis; Notch signalling; Notch1; Hes1; Neurog3; Neurod1; Men1; Ascl1; Pou3f4; Pdx1; Rpl10; Dlk1; Dkk1; Tph1; menin; Tumour biology; Tumörbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Understanding signalling pathways that control pancreatic endocrine tumour (PET) development and proliferation may reveal novel targets for therapeutic intervention. The pathogenesis for sporadic and hereditary PETs, apart from mutations of the MEN1 and VHL tumour suppressor genes, is still elusive. LÄS MER

  3. 2. From Genes to Therapy : Modeling and Novel Therapeutic Strategies for Brain Tumors

    Författare :Matko Čančer; Fredrik Swartling; Lene Uhrbom; Suzanne J. Baker; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medulloblastoma; Glioblastoma; MYCN; PDGF; Cancer Therapy; BET bromodomains; Temozolomide; Medicinsk vetenskap; Medical Science; Oncology; Onkologi;

    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

  4. 3. Development of new approaches for tumor suppressor genes identification

    Författare :Jinfeng Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Tumor suppressor gene TSG ; Cloning of deleted sequences CODE ; Cloning of polymorphisms COP ; Cloning of identical sequences CIS ; Gene inactivation test GIT .;

    Sammanfattning : Development of tumor is a complex process involving multiple steps. New technologies for cloning and identifying genes playing critical role in cancer development are necessary. That is why we have focused our research on development of these approaches. LÄS MER

  5. 4. On the role of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor gene in hematopoietic differentiation

    Författare :Gösta Bergh; Helsingborg Kliniska Vetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antisense; leukemia; cell cycle; differentiation; hematopoiesis; p16; p53; tumor suppressor genes; RB; oligonucleotides; Haematology; extracellular fluids; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study was to investigate the role of some tumor suppressor gene products (with emphasis on the retinoblastoma suppressor gene product) in the regulation of differentiation and proliferation in leukemic and normal hematopoietic cells. For this purpose, the expression of the tumor suppressor genes RB, p53 and p16 were artificially altered. LÄS MER

  7. 5. On the Role of the Tumor Suppressor p53 in Leukemic Cell Differentiation

    Författare :Mats Ehinger; Tumörmikromiljö; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Haematology; p53; Tumor Suppressor Genes; Leukemia; Differentiation; extracellular fluids; Hematologi; extracellulära vätskor;

    Sammanfattning : Leukemic cells suffer from an impaired ability to differentiate due to inherited or acquired genetic lesions. These genetic changes can sometimes be bypassed with various compounds both in vitro, and, more rarely, in vivo, thus inducing terminal differentiation of the leukemic cells. LÄS MER
