Epigenetic inactivation of SFRP genes and TP53 alteration act jointly as markers of invasive bladder cancer.
In the United States each year, almost 13,000 deaths are attributable to bladder cancer, with the majority of these deaths related to higher stage, muscle-invasive solid tumors. Epigenetic silencing of the secreted frizzled receptor proteins (SFRP), antagonists of the WNT pathway, leads to constitutive WNT signaling, altering cell morphology and motility. Identifying alterations in this pathway...
متن کاملMolecular Signaling in Tumorigenesis of Gastric Cancer
Gastric cancer (GC) is regarded as the fifth most common cancer and the third cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Mechanism of GC pathogenesis is still unclear and relies on multiple factors, including environmental and genetic characteristics. One of the most important environmental factors of GC occurrence is infection with Helicobacter pylori that is classified as class one carcinogens...
متن کاملWNT pathway in oral cancer: epigenetic inactivation of WNT-inhibitors.
Epigenetic DNA methylations plays an important role in oral carcinogenesis. The soluble frizzled receptor protein (SFRP) family together with WIF-1 and DKK-3 encodes antagonists of the WNT pathway. Silencing of these genes leads to constitutive WNT signalling. Because aberrant expression of beta-catenin might be associated with the epigenetic inactivation of WNT inhibitors, we analyzed, in a co...
متن کاملتعیین وضعیت متیلاسیون پروموتر ژن های SFRP1 و SFRP2 در بیماران لوسمی میلوئیدی مزمن در بدو تشخیص با روش MSP
Background and Aim: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloprolifrative neoplasm that is characterized by an expansion of myeloid, erythroid cells and platelets in peripheral blood and myeloid hyperplasia in bone marrow. Secreted frizzled-related protein family is a negative regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway that suppresses this signaling pathway in healthy individuals. Aberrant regulati...

چکیده: سرطان پستان دومین عامل مرگ مرتبط با سرطان در خانم ها است. از آنجا که سرطان پستان یک تومور وابسته به هورمون است، می تواند توسط وضعیت هورمون های استروئیدی شامل استروژن و پروژسترون تنظیم شود. استروژن نقش مهمی در توسعه و پیشرفت سرطان پستان ایفا می کند و تاثیر خود را روی بیان ژن های هدف از طریق گیرنده های استروژن اعمال می کند. اما گروه دیگری از گیرنده های هسته ای به نام گیرنده های مرتبط به ا...
