  1. 1. Biomarkers in nasopharyngeal carcinoma

    Author : Zi-Ming Du; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the most common malignancies in certain areas of Southern China, Southeastern Asia and Northern Africa. Currently, evaluation of NPC prognosis is mainly based on the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system. READ MORE

  2. 2. Effect of quinoline-3-carboxamides on myeloid cells in inflammation and cancer

    Author : Adnan Deronic; Immunologi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Quinoline-3-carboxamide; myeloid cell; inflammation; cancer; peritonitis; mammary carcinoma; fibrosis;

    Abstract : The quinoline-3-carboxamides (Q compounds) are a family of small molecules that ameliorate various types of murine inflammatory autoimmune disease. One such compound has also demonstrated anti-tumor effects in murine tumor models. READ MORE

  3. 3. ANALYSIS OF NOVEL BIOMARKERS FOR UNFAVORABLE BREAST CANCER PROGNOSIS

    Author : Emman Shubbar; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ductal Carcinoma In Situ DCIS ; Primary invasive breast cancer; Biomarkers;

    Abstract : Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, and a major cause of mortality and morbidity despite the advances in diagnosis and treatment. The main challenge remains to identify novel biomarkers in order to improve existing treatment modalities. Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is considered as a direct precursor of invasive breast cancer. READ MORE

  4. 4. A two-dimensional gel electrophoretic study of proteins in tumours of the lung and breast

    Author : Bo Franzén; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : gel electrophoresis; protein analysis; sample preparation; mammary tumour; lungcarcinomas; heterogeneity; diagnostic markers.;

    Abstract : Defining differences in gene expression between benign and malignant cells is an important aspectof cancer research, and has been the object of a large number of studies. Such studies are aimed atdefining tumour markers to be used in prognostic studies, and to understand mechanisms leading touncontrolled growth and tumour metastasis. READ MORE

  5. 5. Regulation of Hedgehog signalling during development and carcinogenesis

    Author : Marie Fiaschi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Hedgehog (Hh) signalling is one of the most important signalling networks in the body and, when miss-regulated, has been implicated in many human tumours, particularly that of skin (Basal Cell Carcinoma, BCC) and brain (medulloblastoma). BCC most commonly arises due to mutations in the gene sequence of the Hh receptor protein PATCHED1 (PTCH1). READ MORE
