  1. 1. Aspects of skin cancer diagnosis in clinical practice

    Author : Ingela Ahnlide; Lund Dermatologi och venereologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; skin cancer diagnosis; skin cancer; skin surgery; dermoscopy; basal cell carcinoma; squamous cell carcinoma; melanoma; dysplastic naevus; naevus; algorithms;

    Abstract : Skin cancer incidence is increasing in fair-skinned populations. The three most common skin cancers are basal cell carcinoma (BCC), squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and malignant melanoma (MM). A correct diagnosis is crucial for an efficient and tailored treatment for the skin cancer patient. READ MORE

  2. 2. Invasion and Proliferation in Malignant Cells

    Author : Sofie Svensson Månsson; Malmö Patologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cancerology; oncology; Cytology; breast cancer; squamous cell carcinoma; basal cell carcinoma; p16; proliferation; invasion; Cytologi; onkologi; cancer;

    Abstract : Two key events in the oncogenic process of tumor cells are to acquire uncontrolled proliferation and invasive properties. This allows the tumor to grow and invade beyond the tissue from which the tumor cells originate. READ MORE

    Keywords : skin cancer; malignant melanoma; squamous cell carcinoma; basal cell carcinoma; multiphoton laser scanning microscopy; penile intraepithelial neoplasia; photodynamic therapy; nerve block; field cancerization; screening; prevention;

    Abstract : The constant rise of skin cancer incidence rates in Sweden is a problem which requires attention. Improved techniques for prevention, early detection and effective treatment are required to face this challenging task. READ MORE

  4. 4. Ultraviolet Radiation and Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Human Skin

    Author : Cecilia Wassberg; Olle Larkö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Medical sciences; Ultraviolet radiation; squamos cell carcinoma; incidence; sunscreens; p53; DNA damage; MEDICIN OCH VÅRD; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Dermatology and Venerology; dermatologi och venereologi;

    Abstract : Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is a major risk factor for development of skin cancer. UVR-induced DNA damage and a dysfunctional p53 protein are important steps in the development of squamous cell carcinoman in human skin (SCC). READ MORE

  5. 5. Analysis of Sun-Damaged Skin and Epidermal p53 Clones

    Author : Helena Bäckvall; Nicole Basset-Seguin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi; Pathology; patologi;

    Abstract : Sun-damaged skin is a relevant target tissue for studying the development of skin cancer. The aim of the present study was to investigate the epidermal response to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in human skin in vivo and in vitro and to explore the mutagenic effect of UVA. READ MORE
