11. The tumor suppressor gene p53 : methods for determination and their implications
Sammanfattning : The tumor suppressor p53 plays a central part in the intracellular defense against malignant transformation and tumor progression. This, and the fact that mutations in the p53 gene are the most common genetic abnormalities so far described in human cancer, illustrates the requirement for accurate and reliable techniques for p53 status determinations.

12. Molecular Genetic Studies of Sporadic and MEN1-Associated Endocrine Pancreatic Tumors
Sammanfattning : Pancreatic endocrine tumors (PETs) may cause typical syndromes of hormone excess, or appear clinically non-functioning without hormonal symptoms. PETs occur sporadically, in association with the multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome, or rarely the von Hippel-Lindau syndrome. LÄS MER
13. Development of new approaches for tumor suppressor genes identification
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
14. Identification of tumor suppressor genes using the approach of gene inactivation test
Sammanfattning : Epithelial cancers are the most prevalent and lethal diseases in the world. They cause more than 80% of all cancer deaths. Development of these tumors is a complex process involving more than 100 genes from different chromosomes. We know that human chromosome 3 (chr. LÄS MER
15. Significance of Wilms’ tumor gene 1 as a biomarker in acute leukemia and solid tumors
Sammanfattning : Wilms’ tumor gene 1 (WT1) is a zinc finger transcriptional regulator with crucial functions in embryonic development. Originally WT1 was described as a tumor suppressor gene, but later studies have shown oncogenic properties of WT1 in a variety of tumors. Because of its dual functions in tumorigenesis, WT1 has been described as a chameleon gene. LÄS MER
