Cytoplasmic maspin expression predicts poor prognosis of patients with soft tissue sarcomas
BACKGROUND Maspin is a 42 kDa protein known to act as a tumor suppressor. Although its function has not been fully elucidated, numerous reports have investigated the prognostic impact of maspin in patients with several types of cancer. However, there have been no reports on the association between maspin expression and the prognosis of patients with soft tissue sarcomas (STS). The aim of this s...
متن کاملCytoplasmic Maspin Expression Correlates with Poor Prognosis of Patients with Adenocarcinoma of the Uterine Cervix
BACKGROUND Maspin is known to be a tumor suppressor protein and its prognostic significance in patients with several types of cancer has been reported. To date, however, no study has focused on the association between maspin expression and the prognosis of patients with adenocarcinoma of the uterine cervix. We explored the prognostic value of maspin expression with particular reference to its s...
متن کاملExpression of SIRT1 and DBC1 Is Associated with Poor Prognosis of Soft Tissue Sarcomas
UNLABELLED Recently, the roles of SIRT1 and deleted in breast cancer 1 (DBC1) in human cancer have been extensively studied and it has been demonstrated that they are involved in many human carcinomas. However, their clinical significance for soft-tissue sarcomas has not been examined. In this study, we evaluated the expression and prognostic significance of the expression of SIRT1, DBC1, P53, ...
متن کاملHigh expression of enhancer of zeste homologue 2 indicates poor prognosis in patients with soft tissue sarcomas.
Enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (EZH2), a member of the polycomb group of genes, is associated with malignancy in several human cancers. The purpose of this study was to examine the association between EZH2 expression and clinicopathological factors as compared to Ki-67 expression in human soft tissue sarcomas. Expression of EZH2 and Ki-67 was immunohistochemically determined in paraffin-embedded...
متن کاملOverexpression of cyclin D1 is associated with poor prognosis in extremity soft-tissue sarcomas.
Binding of G1 cyclins to cyclin-dependent kinases leads to phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein and progression through G1 and S phases of the cell cycle. Overexpression of cyclins is thought to deregulate this process and has been noted in many human malignancies. This study was conducted to assess patterns of expression and potential gene amplification of the G1 cyclins in 84 patient...
