  3. 3. Growth regulation in sarcomas : studies in vivo and in cell culture

    Author : Avni Abdiu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Sarcomas are malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin, and can arise in soft-tissue and in bones. It has been suggested that the abnormal growth regulation in sarcoma cells may be due to an autocrine mechanism, in which the cells are stimulated by an endogenous production of growth factors.

  4. 4. Pathogenetic Mechanisms in Soft Tissue Tumors

    Author : Elsa Arbajian; Avdelningen för klinisk genetik; []
    Keywords : Soft tissue tumors; Sarcomas; Gene fusions; SNP array; Next generation sequencing; Haploidization; Point mutations;

    Abstract : Soft tissue tumors (STT) constitute a heterogeneous group of tumors that arise in tissues of mesenchymal origin. They are currently classified according to morphology and resemblance to normal tissue into over 100 subtypes. READ MORE

  5. 5. Genetic and molecular mechanisms of sarcomas

    Author : Yi Chen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sarcomas are heterogeneous malignant mesenchymal tumors with diverse biological features and unique clinical characteristics, the genetic alterations of sarcomas are highly variable. With the development of sequencing technologies, efficient and practical approaches to detect gene expressions and gene variants contribute to the prediction of patient prognosis and the choice of treatment modalities.
