The current procedure of doctoral itinerary does not leave many choices to the doctoral supervisor: Once admitted, the doctoral student is required to defend three reports that are not graded in any way, and the commission can only offer some recommendations. The PhD supervisor cannot reject the report before supporting it. Everything is more a formality. Understanding this, many PhD students do n
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are attractive targets for immunotherapy. Recently, studies in animal models showed that treatment with an anti-TAM antibody directed against the scavenger receptor MARCO resulted in suppression of tumor growth and metastatic dissemination. Here we investigated the expression of MARCO in relation to other macrophage markers and immune pathways in a non-small cel
Context: Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1 (APS1) is a monogenic disorder that features autoimmune Addison disease as a major component. Although APS1 accounts for only a small fraction of all patients with Addison disease, early identification of these individuals is vital to prevent the potentially lethal complications of APS1.Objective: To determine whether available serological and gene
Genome wide DNA alterations were evaluated by array CGH in addition to RNA expression profiling in colorectal cancer from patients with excellent and poor survival following primary operations. DNA was used for CGH in BAC and cDNA arrays. Global RNA expression was determined by 44K arrays. DNA and RNA from tumor and normal colon were used from cancer patients grouped according to death, survival o
BACKGROUND/AIMS: Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and intestinal alkaline phosphatase (IAP) are present in the brush border of mucosal absorptive cells in the small intestine. There are few studies on the effect of alcohol consumption on these enzymes. Increased intestinal GGT in biopsy specimens from the duodenum has been described in chronic alcoholics. In experimental animals alcohol effects va

The development of multigene classifiers for cancer prognosis, treatment prediction, molecular subtypes or clinicopathological groups has been a cornerstone in transcriptomic analyses of human malignancies for nearly two decades. However, many reported classifiers are critically limited by different preprocessing needs like normalization and data centering. In response, a new breed of classifiers,
PURPOSE Periampullary adenocarcinomas encompass a heterogeneous group of tumors with dismal prognosisand limited treatment options. Emerging evidence shows that tumor morphology (ie, intestinal type [I-type] orpancreatobiliary type [PB-type]) is a more relevant prognostic factor than tumor origin. Knowledge is sparse,however, on whether key mutations differ according to morphology.MATERIALS AND ME
The project is part of the Geoinfra TRUST framework that is working towards developing techniques for more cost efficient and sustainable underground construction in urban areas (see http://trust-geoinfra.se/ for more information). This project aims at development and adaptation of DCIP (DC resistivity and induced polarisation) imaging for use in urban environments, and includes demonstration and
I Naturvårdsverkets miljömålsuppföljning från 2013 slås det fast att förorenat grundvatten utgör ett nationellt problem. Det konstateras vidare att uppföljningen och övervakning-en av förorenat grundvatten är otillräcklig, något som även uppmärksammats i EUs vattendirektivsuppföljning (2012). Förekomsten av förorenande ämnen i svenska grundvatten-magasin behöver utredas bättre, inte minst för att
