  1. 1. Consequences of Shb Deficiency on Hematopoietic Cell Function

    Author : Karin Gustafsson; Michael Welsh; Martin Bergö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; hematopoiesis; hematopoietic stem cells; myeloid neoplasia; T cells; atopic dermatitis; cell signaling; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The adaptor protein Shb has been implicated in the signaling of several tyrosine kinase receptors and previous studies have suggested a role for Shb in the signal transduction of T cells. Shb associates with the T cell receptor (TCR) and partakes in the signal propagation of activated T lymphocytes. READ MORE

  2. 2. Human myeloid cells in cancer, inflammation, and infection

    Author : Eglė Kvedaraitė; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Myeloid cells are a part of innate immunity, playing a major role in orchestrating innate and adaptive immune responses. While work performed in experiment model systems has significantly increased our knowledge on fundamental myeloid cell functions, studies in well-designed clinical cohorts are important for understanding their functions in human health and disease, such as in cancer, infection and chronic inflammation.

    Abstract : The general aim of this thesis was to characterize hematologic malignancies using gene expression profiling in order to obtain an improved classification and to study deregulated transcriptional networks in leukemia. In the first study (Article I), the gene expression profiles of hematologic cell lines were analyzed to investigate whether such cell lines maintain expression profiles that are characteristic of their primary genetic changes.

  4. 4. Characterization of somatic mutations in nonneoplastic cells

    Author : Karin Broberg; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Clinical genetics; osteoarthritis; nonneoplastic; HMGIC; trisomy 7; FISH; Molecular genetics; cytogenetics; Klinisk genetik;

    Abstract : Acquired genetic alterations, of which many are visible on the chromosome level, are believed to be necessary for tumorigenesis, and most tumors display characteristic patterns of recurrent structural and numerical aberrations. However, two of the most frequently occurring chromosome mutations in malignant and benign solid tumors, i.e. READ MORE
