  2. 1. Molecular archaeology of cancer

    Author : Cecilia Williams; KTH; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Alterations of the p53 tumor suppressor gene plays animportant role in the development of many types of cancers.This and the suggestion that the presence or absence of p53mutations might have both prognostic and therapeuticconsequences, imply the importance of reliable techniques forp53 sequence determination.

    Author : Madeleine Birgersson; Cecilia Williams; Amena Archer; Claudia Kutter; Eduardo Villablanca; David Moore; KTH; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Medicinsk teknologi; Medical Technology;

    Abstract : Estrogen regulates a variety of important physiological functions in both males and females, where the regulation of female reproduction and the development of sexual organs are typical examples. The effects of estrogen are predominantly exerted via signaling through the two nuclear receptors estrogen receptor α (ERα) and β (ERβ), or the membrane G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER1).
