  1. 1. p53 Alterations in Human Skin : A Molecular Study Based on Morphology

    Author : Ling Gao; Christer Bush Bush; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; p53; skin; mutation; carcinogenesis; microdissection; UV; Basal cell cancer BCC ; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Pathology; patologi;

    Abstract : Mutation of the p53 gene appears to be an early event in skin cancer development. The present study is based on morphology and represents a cellular and genetic investigation of p53 alterations in normal human skin and basal cell cancer. READ MORE

  2. 2. Molecular Analysis of Normal Human Skin and Basal Cell Carcinoma Using Microdissection Based Methods

    Author : Anna Asplund; Fredrik Pontén; Uffe Birk Jenssen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; skin; basal cell carcinoma; microdissection; X-chromosome inactivation; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis was to gain further insight into the biology of normal human skin and basal cell carcinoma (BCC). Morphology in combination with microdissection was used as primary tool for sampling. READ MORE

  3. 3. 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

  4. 4. Aspects on in vivo imaging techniques for diagnostics of pigmented skin lesions

    Author : Karin Terstappen; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : Melanoma; pigmented nevi; basal cell carcinoma; differential diagnosis; dermoscopy; spectrophotometric intracutaneous analysis; pathology;

    Abstract : Abstract Problem: Non-invasive diagnostic techniques to facilitate diagnosis of pigmented skin lesions (PSL) are being developed. Dermoscopy and SIAscopy are two such techniques, and they are evaluated in this thesis. READ MORE

  5. 5. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Diabetes. Surgical outcome and nerve pathology

    Author : Niels Thomsen; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; intraepidermal nerve fibre; health-related quality of life; Carpal tunnel syndrome; diabetes mellitus; myelinated nerve fibre; nerve biopsy; nerve conduction study; skin biopsy.;

    Abstract : Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common entrapment neuropathy in the upper extremity. Diabetes mellitus increases the risk of developing CTS from an estimated prevalence of 2-4% in the general population to 15-30% in diabetics. READ MORE
