p53 Protein Expression and Its Relation to the Apoptotic Index in Prostate Adenocarcinoma
Background: Prostate cancer is one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in males. Tumor suppressor gene p53 plays an important role in causing cell cycle arrest and allowing apoptosis to proceed. Objective: To investigate the expression of p53 protein and its relation to apoptosis and prostate cancer traditional prognostic indicators. Methods: In this study expression of p53 was examined in p...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis HspX/EsxS Fusion Protein: Gene Cloning, Protein Expression, and Purification in Escherichia coli
Background: The purpose of this study was to clone, express, and purify a novel multidomain fusion protein of Micobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in a prokaryotic system. Methods: An hspX/esxS gene construct was synthesized and ligated into a pGH plasmid, E. coli TOP10 cells were transformed, and the vector was purified. The vector containing the construct and pET-21b (+) plasmid were digested ...
متن کاملMicroRNA expression profiles and clinicopathological implications in lung adenocarcinoma according to EGFR, KRAS, and ALK status
Lung adenocarcinoma has distinctive clinicopathological features that are related to specific genetic alterations, including EGFR and KRAS mutations and ALK rearrangement. MicroRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that post-transcriptionally regulate many important biological processes and influence cancer phenotypes. This study retrospectively investigated microRNA expression profiles, and their cli...
متن کاملSEC31A-ALK Fusion Gene in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) fusion is a common mechanism underlying pathogenesis of non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) where these rearrangements represent important diagnostic and therapeutic targets. In this study, we found a new ALK fusion gene, SEC31A-ALK, in lung carcinoma from a 53-year-old Korean man. The conjoined region in the fusion transcript was generated by the fusion of SE...
متن کاملPre-Treatment Serum CEA and EGFR Mutations and EML4-ALK Fusion Gene in Lung Adenocarcinoma
Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancerrelated deaths, where it is associated with a 5-year worldwide survival rate of less than 15% (Jemal et al., 2011). Among new diagnoses of pulmonary carcinoma, Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for approximately 80% (Ozgul et al., 2013). Despite great efforts to improve the survival of patients with NSCLC, the outcomes are still considered...
