  1. 16. Minimal Residual Disease Assessment in Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

    Author : Ingrid Thörn; Christer Sundström; Richard Rosenquist; Gisela Barbany; Johan Botling; Kjeld Schmiegelow; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia; minimal residual disease; IG TCR gene rearrangements; BCR-ABL1 fusion gene transcripts; real-time quantitative PCR; multicolor flow cytometry; Pathology; Patologi; Pathology; patologi;

    Abstract : Traditionally, response to treatment in hematological malignancies is evaluated by light microscopy of bone marrow (BM) smears, but due to more effective therapies more sensitive methods are needed. Today, detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) using immunological and molecular techniques can be 100 times more sensitive than morphology. READ MORE

  2. 17. Fungal degradation patterns and toxicity of furfurylated wood

    Author : Annica Pilgård; RISE; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Daphtox; Quantitative real-time PCR; Furfurylation; Microtox; Basidiomycota; Acetylation; Wood modification.; Daphnia magna; Thermal modification; Trametes versicolor; Decay; Vibrio fischeri;

    Abstract : The demand for timber products is increasing with global population and affluence. Concerns regarding conventionally used toxic wood preservatives and the deforestation of tropical forests have become more prominent both socially and politically. Wood based products are generally recognised as an environmentally favourable raw material. READ MORE

  3. 18. The Identification and Characterisation of LRIG Gene Family and Its Expression in Astrocytic Tumours

    Author : Dongsheng Guo; Tomas Ekström; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : astrocytoma; brain; EGFR; LRIG; leucine-rich repeat; real-time RT-PCR; onkologi; Oncology;

    Abstract : Gliomas are the most common primary brain tumours, and their capacity to invade surrounding normal brain prevents complete removal of the tumour. Malignant glioma has still a poor prognosis. However, with the rapid development of molecular biology our understanding about glioma has increased dramatically. READ MORE

  5. 20. Quantitative analysis of melanoma transcripts : with emphasis on methodological and biological variation

    Author : Malin Farnebäck; Håkan Hedman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : The introduction of RT-PCR made it possible to detect circulating tumor cells in melanoma patients by analysis of melanoma-associated transcripts, especially tyrosinase. Since the development of the first PCR method for tyrosinase mRNA, several studies have presented varying results. READ MORE
