CD20-specific T cell receptors in gene therapy of leukemia and lymphoma

T-cellereseptorer kan sammenlignes med målstyrte raketter, og utgjør den delen av T-cellene som gjør dem i stand til å gjenkjenne og drepe virusinfiserte celler med stor effektivitet og spesifisitet. Derfor kan T-celler effektivt kurere influensa uten bivirkninger. Prosjektet utnytter disse egens...

Integration of clinical and basic research to improve treatment of multiple myeloma

Multiple myeloma is due to clonal expansion of malignant plasma cells. The incidence in the Nordic countries is approximately 6 new cases per 100,000 per year, which corresponds to nearly 20% of all haematological cancers. Approximately 300 people are gi ven this diagnosis each year in Norway. I...

Molecular and biological characterization of cancer metastases

Purpose: Metastasis is the principal cause of cancer death, and for most tumor types staging, prognostication and therapy is inadequate. Hence, new knowledge on how to prevent metastasis and identification of predictive markers is among the most important challenges in cancer research. Our strat...

Aspects of breast cancer risk: subtypes of breast cancer, relation to angiogenic factors and gene-environment interactions

Det er kjent at brystkreftsykdommen kan inndeles i ulike undergrupper eller subtyper, men det er ikke kjent om "tradisjonelle" risikofaktorer har ulik sammenheng med ulike subtyper. Derfor har vi undersøkt sammenhengen mellom kjente risikofaktorer og seks ulike subtyper av brystkreft, identifise...

Novel therapeutic strategies for stimulation of anti-neoplastic immune activity

More than 20% of the human genome encodes proteins that are devoted to cellular signalling. Signal networks that involve the signal molecule cyclic AMP (cAMP) are involved in diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, type II diabetes, obesity, HIV and asthma. Cyclic AMP acts as an acute in...
