Approximately 10–15 per cent of breast cancer cases do not respond to treatment with hormone therapy, which means that they are more aggressive and often recur. An international research team led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden has uncovered a way to treat these aggressive tumours through manipulation of the connective tissue cells of the tumour. The researchers are now developing a ne

Karin Hansson and Daniel Bexell. Photo: Åsa Hansdotter A drug has shown great promise in the treatment of neuroblastoma, an aggressive form of childhood cancer. The study was led by researchers at Lund University in Sweden, and is published in the journal Science Translational Medicine. Every year, about 800 children in the US are diagnosed with neuroblastoma, an aggressive cancer of the nervous s

Emma Hammarlund and Sofie Mohlin at TCR, together with two colleagues from Oxford University, have reviewed how oxygen-sensing mechanisms across eukaryotic kingdoms are alike. From a functional perspective, these systems are active at low oxygen and degraded at high, although their scope varies.    2020-11-16_hammarlund_et_al_2020.pdf .

PI Daniel Bexell has been awarded millions in funding from Åke Wibergs foundation that goes to young PIs in medical research. One of the aims is to find out why some tumors develop resistance to today’s treatment but also to find new treatment strategies. Every year around 20 children in Sweden are diagnosed with Neuroblastoma, most before even turning 5 years of age. It is a rare and complexed tu

The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signalling pathway is often dysregulated in cancer and PDGF-receptor expression has been linked to unfavourable prognostic factors in breast cancer (e.g. ER negativity, high Ki67 and high grade). This study aimed to evaluate the expression of PDGFRα, PDGFRβ and ligand PDGF-CC in breast cancer in relation to molecular subtypes and prognosis. Methods: Protei
