6. Cancer Evolution under Chemotherapy Treatment
Sammanfattning : Background: Chemotherapy resistance is a critical issue in oncology, being responsible for the majority of deaths in modern cancer care. My PhD work has focused on two cancer types where such drug resistance is a major clinical issue: epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) and Wilms tumor (WT). LÄS MER

8. From a candidate region to gene characterization : analysis of three new genes with respect to meningioma tumorigenesis
Sammanfattning : Meningioma is a common and usually benign tumor arising from the meninges covering the central nervous system (CNS). The yearly incidence of symptomatic meningiomas is 1.2 cases per 100 000 individuals but autopsy findings reveal an occurrence ten times higher. LÄS MER
9. Mesothelial differentiation, mesothelioma and tumor markers in serous cavities
Sammanfattning : Mesothelial cells covering the serous membranes are of mesodermal origin although they acquire several characteristics of epithelial cells. The cytological and histological diagnosis of malignant tumors in serous cavities is sometimes a major challenge: the main diagnostic alternatives are reactive benign mesothelium, mesothelioma and adenocarcinoma.

10. Expression and function of ribozymes in transgenic mice
Sammanfattning : Hammerhead and hairpin ribozymes are short RNAs that act as sequence-specific endoribonucleases by cleaving a target RNA after hybridization to complementary sequences. By changing the specific target hybridization sequence of the ribozyme, virtually any RNA can be targeted, making ribozymes a versatile tool for gene down-regulation (knockdown). LÄS MER
