A single nucleotide polymorphism in EZH2 predicts overall survival rate in patients with cholangiocarcinoma
Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a deadly disease arising from the malignant transformation of cholangiocytes. Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) is overexpressed in poorly differentiated CCA. Functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene may affect the role of EZH2 in cholangiocarcinogenesis and chemoresistance. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the correlation between E...
متن کاملher۲ ile۶۵۵val single nucleotide polymorphism in patients with ovarian cancer
background the association between her2 ile655val single nucleotide polymorphism and cancer is controversial. objectives the aim of our study was to investigate this polymorphism in patients with ovarian cancer. patients and methods genomic dna was extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes of 107 patients and 130 healthy women. her2 gene polymorphism was assessed by pcr-rflp. results no signif...
متن کاملNeutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio predicts overall survival of patients with combined hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma
The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been regarded as a prognostic factor in various types of cancer. The present study aimed to identify the association between NLR and combined hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma (cHCC-CC) in patients who underwent surgical resection. The present study retrospectively reviewed 59 patients who were diagnosed with cHCC-CC and treated with surgical resecti...
متن کاملSerum albumin predicts survival in patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing adenocarcinoma, histologically mimicking hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is a distinct entity known as hepatoid adenocarcinoma (HAC). Reported cases of HAC arising from the esophagus are extremely rare. Due to common liver metastasis and elevated AFP levels in patients with esophageal HAC, differentiation of HAC with liver metastasis from HCC could be challengi...
متن کاملSingle Nucleotide Polymorphism Analysis of Protamine Genes in Infertile Men
Background Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) are considered as one of the underlying causes of male infertility. Proper sperm chromatin packaging which involves replacement of histones with protamines has profound effect on male fertility. Over 20 SNPs have been reported for the protamine 1 and 2. MaterialsAndMethods The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of two previously repo...
