  1. 1. Tumor instructed normal tissue : studies of potential extratumoral biomarkers and therapeutic targets in prostate cancer

    Author : Maria Nilsson; Sofia Halin Bergström; Anders Bergh; Kristian Pietras; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Prostate cancer; biomarkers; tumor-instructed normal tissue; extra cellular matrix; macrophages; LOX; HO-1; MSMB; Pathology; patologi;

    Abstract : Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men in Sweden and but luckily the majority of the patients will carry on their life without any consequences from the disease. Unfortunately, some will develop aggressive tumors and eventually die. READ MORE

  2. 2. Telomere length as prognostic parameter in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

    Author : Pawel Grabowski; Göran Roos; Ylva Paulsson Karlsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; telomere length; chronic lymphocytic leukemia; prognosis; longitudinal sampling; genomic aberrations; IGHV; CD38; ZAP70; prognostic factors; Pathology; Patologi; patologi; Pathology;

    Abstract : B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is the most common leukemia among the adult population in western countries and accounts for 30-40% of all leukemias. With survival time ranging from months to decades, the clinical course of individual CLL patients is highly variable. READ MORE

  3. 3. Visualization of Protein Activity Status in situ Using Proximity Ligation Assays

    Author : Malin Jarvius; Ulf Landegren; Ola Söderberg; Hans van Dam; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; proximity ligation; in situ; high content screening; platelet-derived growth factor receptor; rolling circle amplification; protein interactions; in situ PLA; post-translational modifications; drug screening; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : In 2001 the human proteome organization (HUPO) was created with the ambition to identify and characterize all proteins encoded in the human genome according to several criteria; their expression levels in different tissues and under different conditions; the sub-cellular localization; post-translational modifications; interactions, and if possible also the relationship between their structure and function.When the knowledge of different proteins and their potential interactions increases, so does the need for methods able to unravel the nature of molecular processes in cells and organized tissues, and ultimately for clinical use in samples obtained from patients.

  4. 4. Ligation-mediated Molecular Analysis of Influenza Subtypes, Splicing and Protein Glycosylation

    Author : Tim Conze; Ulf Landegren; Mats Nilsson; Ola Söderberg; Jörn Glökler; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ligase; proximity ligation; gastric cancer; glycosylation; alternative splicing; avian influenza; padlock probe; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Molekylär medicin; Molecular Medicine;

    Abstract : Binder-based assays are employed throughout the life sciences. Powerful signal amplification techniques have enabled detection of very rare molecule species diluted in simple buffers. Unspecific binding of primary binders leads to increased background in more complex samples. READ MORE

  5. 5. Alzheimer's disease : towards a multifaceted approach in neuropathological diagnosis

    Author : Nenad Bogdanovic; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Alzheimer s disease; CERAD; neurofibrillary tangles. neuritic plaques; apoE. synaptic proteins; rab3a; synaptophysin; synaptotagmin; GAP-43; neurogranin; neuronal degeneration; optical disector 1998;

    Abstract : The main aim of this study has been to investigate potential neuropathological features which may play an important role in understanding the cognitive dysfunction and in making the final diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). To establish a reliable diagnosis of AD, standardisation and uniformity of the diagnostic protocols must become mandatory. READ MORE
