2. Hodgkin Lymphoma : Studies of Advanced Stages, Relapses and the Relation to Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas
Abstract : The relationship between Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is not entirely elucidated and a clonal relation may be present more often than previously believed. Mechanisms of tumour progression and resistance to therapy are poorly understood.Between 1974 and 1994 all individuals in Sweden with both HL and NHL were identified. READ MORE

3. SOX11 in Mantle Cell Lymphoma - Novel Tools for Diagnostic, Prognostic and Functional Investigations
Abstract : The goal of biomarker discovery is to identify disease defining molecules, which could be used to improve early detection and/or to predict survival and response to treatment. This thesis is about the transcription factor SOX11, a protein discovered in the context of mantle cell lymphoma in 2008, which shows great potential to be used as a clinical relevant biomarker.

5. p53 functional loss by mutation and p53 antagonizing proteins during tumor development
Abstract : p53 is the most common target for genetic alterations in human cancers. Inactivation of wild type p53 function by point mutation, deletion or complexing with antagonizing proteins such as MDM2 and DNA tumor viral oncoproteins, is frequently found in human and rodent tumors. READ MORE
