2. 1. p63 – from expression to function : studies of normal oral mucosa and squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck

   Author : Niklas Thurfjell; Karin Nylander; Phillip Coates; Göran Roos; Luisa Guerrini; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; p63; SCCHN; p53; BRCA1; Pathology; Patologi;

   Abstract : The human p63 gene discovered in 1997 encodes a series of protein isoforms that differ in their N- and/or C-terminal sequences. These isoforms have widely differing properties in promoting or repressing p53-related functions such as growth arrest and apoptosis. READ MORE

4. 2. Functional studies of microRNAs in development and cancer

   Author : Jakob Lovén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : MicroRNAs (miRNAs) COMPRISE a large family of small (~23 nucleotide in length), endogenous RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. Functional studies have indicated that miRNAs participate in the regulation of nearly all cellular processes investigated so far, including differentiation, apoptosis, and proliferation. READ MORE

5. 3. Hedgehog signaling in rhabdomyosarcoma : role of GLI factors and splice variants in signal transduction

   Author : Ulrica Tostar; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft-tissue childhood cancer. Deregulation of the Hedgehog (HH) signaling pathway, which is essential for proper embryonic development, has been implicated as a driving force for this cancer. READ MORE
