Correlation of carcinoembryonic antigen content with carboxylesterase activity in benign and malignant human tissues.
SUMMARY Quantitative analyses were made of carcinoembryonic antigen using radioimmunoassay and of carboxylesterase using chemical and immunochemical methods in normal and malignant human digestive tract tissues. Metastatic and primary carcinomatous tissue extracts with high carcinoembry onic antigen activities had increased esterase activities com pared with normal colon, liver, and pancreas. A...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical localization of prostate-specific antigen in benign and malignant breast conditions.
We studied 24 selected breast tumors and 3 lymph nodes metastasis from patients with breast carcinoma. The biopsies were formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded and sections were stained with haematoxylin-eosin. Additional sections from each case were immunostained for prostate specific antigen (PSA), using the EnVision technique. PSA was detected in 7% of normal breast tissues, in 54.5% of benign tu...
متن کاملStudy of Correlation between Prostate Specific Antigen and Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 Activity in Benign and Malignant Prostate Hyperplasia
There are emerging data on novel tumor markers such as matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2 or gelatinase-A), which play a key role in tissue invasion and metastasis. We designed an investigation to assess the usefulness of MMP-2 activity as compared to prostate specific antigen (PSA) in cancer staging process. We have analyzed the circulating form of MMP-2 in serum samples of patients suffering f...
متن کاملImmunohistological localization of carcinoembryonic antigen and nonspecific cross-reacting antigen in gastrointestinal normal and tumoral tissues.
The localization of the Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) of gastrointestinal tumors and of the nonspecific crossreacting antigen (NCA) was studied by immunocytological techniques in various cancerous and noncancerous diges tive tissues. NCA was found having the same centroglandular local ization than CHA, in cancerous and noncancerous glands of colonie and gastric mucosae. The only difference was...
متن کاملFrequency of Cytomegalovirus (CMV) in benign and malignant tumors
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a widespread pathogen that is found in milk, saliva, urine, cervical secretions, and semen fluid. It is supposed that CMV is a risk factor for breast cancer. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of CMV among benign and malignant breast tumors. Paraffin embedded breast carcinoma (n=24) and fibroadenoma (n=24) samples were collected from Toos and Firoozgar...
