Expression of Alpha Methylacyl CoA Racemase (AMACR) in Gastric Adenocarcinoma and Its Correlation with Helicobacter pylori Infection

Award Number : TITLE : Dietary Influences on Alpha - Methylacyl - CoA Racemase ( AMACR ) Expression in the Prostate

Diagnostic Value of Cytokeratin 34 beta E12 (Ck34βE12) and α-Methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR) Immunohistochemical Expression in Prostatic Lesions

Background & Objective: Some prostatic lesions contain small suspicious foci for prostatic carcinoma in which the morphological features are equivocal. Two immunohistochemical markers namely, cytokeratin 34 beta E12 (Ck34βE12) and α-Methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR), were evaluated in these lesions for a definitive diagnosis and avoiding misdiagnosis or overdiagnosis of prostatic...

The expression and clinical effects of alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR/ P504S) as an immunohistochemical marker in malign pleural mesothelioma.

BACKGROUND/AIM Alpha-methylacyl-CoA racemase (AMACR), an intracellular enzyme involved in lipid metabolism, has emerged as an immunohistochemical marker for many types of cancer. Recent studies about the role of lipid metabolism in pathogenesis of mesothelioma have brought up some positive results. This study was conducted to investigate AMACR expression in the diagnosis of malignant pleural me...

abnormal expression of e-cadherin in gastric adenocarcinoma, and its correlation with tumor histopathology and helicobacter pylori infection

conclusions abnormal e-cadherin expression is a common phenomenon in gastric adenocarcinoma. the study showed a significant correlation between abnormal e-cadherin expression and tumor grade and regional lymph node involvement; so, abnormal e-cadherin expression may be used as a predictive factor for tumor invasiveness in gastric adenocarcinoma. materials and methods a historical cohort survey ...

Increased expression of alpha-methylacyl-coenzyme A racemase (AMACR; p504s) and p16 in distal hyperplastic polyps

Background Hyperplastic polyps (HP) and sessile serrated adenomas (SSA) share morphological similarities. In this immunohistochemical study we chose a panel of potential relevant and promising biomarkers including α-methylacyl-coenzyme A racemase (AMACR;p504s) , which is involved in the degradation of branched chained fatty acids derivates, and analysed a cohort of HPs and SSAs in order to iden...
