Absence of paxillin gene mutation in lung cancer and other common solid cancers.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND Mounting evidence indicates that deregulated cell adhesion is involved in the mechanisms of cancer pathogenesis. A recent study showed that the paxillin gene (PXN) encoding a focal adhesion protein was somatically mutated in lung cancers. The aim of this study was to confirm the presence of PXN mutations in lung cancers as well as in other common solid cancers. METHODS We ...
متن کاملPoint mutation at codon 12 of the c-Ha-ras gene in human gastric cancers.
The molecular mechanisms of the carcinogenic process of gastric cancer have not been fully understood yet. In order to know whether c-Ha-ras gene is being involved in the process of gastric carcinogenesis, 8 gastric cancer cell lines, 8 cases of gastric cancer and same number of adjacent dysplasia were analyzed for the presence of mutation at codon 12, 13 and 61 of the c-Ha-ras gene by using po...
متن کاملRare somatic mutation of pro-apoptotic BAX and BAK genes in common human cancers.
AIMS AND BACKGROUND BAX and BAK are both pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins and are essential for the pathway of intrinsic apoptosis. Apoptosis in cancer cells is frequently inactivated by somatic mutations. The aim of the study was to see whether somatic mutations of BAX and BAK genes are characteristics of common human cancers. METHODS We analyzed somatic mutation of BAX and BAK genes in 47 gastr...
متن کاملFrequent detection of codon 877 mutation in the androgen receptor gene in advanced prostate cancers.
Prostatic tissue specimens derived from transurethral resections of patients with metastatic prostate cancer were analyzed for genetic alterations in the hormone-binding domain of the androgen receptor (AR) gene. Direct sequencing of the polymerase chain reaction-derived DNAs of 6 of 24 specimens revealed a codon 877 mutation (ACT-->GCT, Thr-->Ala) in the hormone-binding domain of the AR gene. ...
متن کاملAdditive clinical value of bone scintigraphy in patients with malignant tumors with absence of localized bone pain: A report on most common sex-related cancers
Introduction: Almost all malignant tumors have the potential to eventually produce bone metastasis. The aim of the current study was to report the distribution pattern and imaging characteristics of bone metastases detected by conventional whole body bone scintigraphy in patients with different types of malignancies and to assess their relationship with the complain...
