Risk of skin cancer and lymphoproliferative diseases in patients after kidney transplantation
Sidorová, Kristína ; Malý, Josef (advisor) ; Matoulková, Petra (referee)
Risk of skin cancer and lymphoproliferative diseases in patients after kidney transplantation Author: Kristína Sidorová Tutor: doc. PharmDr. Josef Malý, Ph.D. Consultant: Mgr. Barbora Vaňková Department of Social and Clinical Pharmacy, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové, Charles University Introduction and aims: Organ transplantations (Tx) are associated with the lifelong use of immunosuppressive therapy (IS), which carries with it, among other risks, an increased incidence of malignancies. The most common malignancies after Tx are skin tumors, post-transplant lymphoproliferative diseases (PTLD) are also more common in transplant patients. The aim of the study was to determine the incidence of skin tumors and PTLD in patients with kidney Tx within one transplant center and to analyze the risk factors associated with these diseases. Methods: Retrospective longitudinal study was conduted in the Teaching Hospital Hradec Králové. The study included patients from the age of 18 who had overcome kidney Tx until 24 April 2019, were registered in a transplant clinic in Hradec Králové and had a medical record in the hospital information system. Data collection from medical records took place from 15 April 2019 to 31 December 2019. Collected data included demographic characteristics, family history,...

Clinicopathological and molecular biologic characteristics of selected cutaneous epithelial and nonepithelial tumors
Kastnerova, Liubov ; Kazakov, Dmitry (advisor) ; Šíma, Radek (referee) ; Feit, Josef (referee)
The doctoral thesis MD. Liubov Kastnerova (previous name Kyrpychova) is focused on the histomorphological and molecular biologic features of selected cutaneous epithelial and nonepithelial tumors and is structured as a commentary to the 20 articles published during four years, representing the completed scientific projects in the Ph.D. course. In eight papers, the author of the thesis is the first author, whereas she coauthored in the remaining 12 papers. The thesis is composed of the commented files of authors own publications and it is divided into cutaneous epithelial and nonepithelial tumors. The first section, «Cutaneous epithelial tumors», includes 14 articles that are subdivided into two parts: adnexal tumors (9 articles) and lesions of anogenital mammary-like glands (5 articles). Of the nine articles on adnexal tumors, there are 5 articles focused on various benign and malignant adnexal lesions with apocrine or eccrine differentiation. Novel findings in this part include the identification of hitherto unreported alterations of the MYBL1 gene in adenoid cystic carcinoma of the skin and lack of deletion of the 1p36 locus in this neoplasm; the lack of a correlation between cellular composition and the presence CRTC1-MAML2 fusions in hidradenoma, the absence of CRTC3-MAML2 fusions in this tumor,...

Autoimmune and lymphoproliferative diseases: associations and common mechanisms
Dobiášová, Alena ; Daňková, Pavlína (advisor) ; Hušáková, Markéta (referee)
Autoimmune and lymphoproliferative diseases share some etiologic mechanisms. The origin of the diseases is complicated process that involves an accumulation of hereditary and somatic mutations in a hematopoetic cell, which thanks to changed activity overcomes different growth and survival control checkpoints. Such mutations are for example those located in genes coding for transcription factors, apoptotic signaling molecules, costimulatory molecules and secreted exctracellular molecules. All these molecules influence the balance between survival and programmed cell death. Their dysregulated expression enables the cell to overcome defensive mechanisms of the immune system. Therefore, autoimmune and malignant cells are able to survive though, under usual circumstances, they would be selected. The main aim of this work is to shed the light on the influence of the dysregulated expression of the particular molecules on the origin of autoimmune and lymphoproliferative diseases. Key words: autoimmune ilnesess, lymphoproliferative diseases, etiology, AIRE, c-MYC, TP53, FOXP3, Fas, PTEN, Bim, CTLA-4, CD5, CD30, CD40/CD40L, BAFF, α-taxilin, IL- 10.
