    Abstract : DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a holoenzyme consisting of a regulatory subunit, the heterodimeric Ku70/86, and a catalytic subunit known as DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs). DNA-PK takes part in a number of cellular functions including growth control, immunoglobulin gene rearrangement and DNA repair. READ MORE

  4. 2. In vitro studies on anti-leukemic effects of tetracycline's analogues and cyclophosphamide

    Author : Mona Fares; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Leukemia is a heterogeneous group of hematological malignancies that originate from the bone marrow. Leukemias are classified as acute or chronic. Although acute leukemia affects patients of all ages, acute lymphoid leukemia is predominant in children and young adults while acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is predominant in the elderly. READ MORE

  5. 3. Leukemia chemotherapy : experimental studies on pharmacological optimisation

    Author : Michèle Masquelier; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Our main goal has been to identify new means to improve chemotherapy of acute leukaemia: 1. By using low-density lipoprotein (LDL) as a drug carrier to increase the selectivity of antileukemic drugs, based on high LDL uptake in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells. READ MORE

  6. 4. Telomerase activity and its regulation in malignant hematopoietic cells

    Author : Dawei Xu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : hTERT mortalization malignancy activity telomerase regulation;

    Abstract : Telomerase, a multicomponent ribonucleoprotein, synthesizes TTAGGG telomeric repeats essential for the stability and integrity of chromosomes. Most normal human somatic cells exhibit undetectable telomerase activity. READ MORE
