2. 1. Immunogene Therapy of Bladder Carcinoma : A Preclinical Study

   Author : Angelica Loskog; Rolf Kiessling; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Oncology; Immunotherapy; Gene therapy; Immunogene therapy; CD40L; Bladder carcinoma; Onkologi; Oncology; Onkologi; Klinisk immunologi; Clinical Immunology;

   Abstract : This thesis comprises studies on murine and human models of bladder carcinoma with the aim to develop novel immunogene therapies. On the basis of the results presented in this thesis, a clinical trial is underway. The potential of activating the immune system to combat cancer has long intrigued immunologists. READ MORE

5. 3. Quantitative immunochemistry in tissue sections : With special reference to urinary bladder carcinoma

   Author : Kenneth Wester; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; Urinary bladder carcinoma; immunohistochemistry; quantification; image analysis; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Pathology; patologi;

   Abstract : Urinary bladder carcinoma affects about 2 000 people in Sweden every year. It is a heterogeneous disease and for adequate treatment decisions, prognostic tools are needed. Many of these are based on immunohistochemistry (MC) and hampered by poorly reproducible methodologies and subjective evaluations. READ MORE

6. 4. Stage T1 Urinary Bladder Carcinoma : Investigation of A Population-Based Cohort

   Author : Hans Olsson; Staffan Jahnson; Per Hultman; Peter Söderkvist; Sten Nilsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Approximately 2 300 new cases of urinary bladder carcinoma (UBC) are diagnosed every year in Sweden. This type of cancer is characterized as a long-standing disease with a high risk of recurrence and progression from an indolent to a more aggressive course. READ MORE

7. 5. MOLECULAR PROFILING OF UROTHELIAL CARCINOMA

   Author : David Lindgren; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cytogenetik; Urology; nephrology; Urologi; nefrologi; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; cytogenetics; Genetics; cancer; onkologi; Cytologi; cancerology; oncology; Cytology; TP53; FGFR3; gene expression profiling; microarray; bladder cancer; urothelial carcinoma; Genetik;

   Abstract : The general aim of this thesis was to molecularly characterize urothelial carcinoma (UC) at the transcriptional level using gene expression microarrays to improve the classification and pathogenetic understanding of this disease. In the first two studies (Articles I and II), gene expression profiling was used to study dysregulated transcriptional networks in a large cohort of UCs. READ MORE
