Prognostic Factors of Atypical Meningioma: Overall Survival Rate and Progression Free Survival Rate
Objective Atypical meningioma is rare tumor and there is no accurate guide line for optimal treatment. This retrospective study analyzed the prognostic factors, the effect of different methods of treatments and the behavior of atypical meningioma. Methods Thirty six patients were diagnosed as atypical meningioma, among 273 patients who were given a diagnosis of meningioma in the period of 200...
متن کاملGain of chromosome 7, as detected by in situ hybridization, strongly correlates with shorter survival in astrocytoma grade 2.
The clinical course of astrocytoma grade 2 (A2) is highly variable and is not reflected by morphological characteristics. Earlier studies using small series of A2 cases suggest that in situ hybridization (ISH) with chromosome-specific DNA probes allows for frequent detection of aneusomy 1, trisomy 7, and monosomy 10. The role of trisomy 7 in astrocytoma carcinogenesis is disputed, however, beca...
متن کاملGetting a Clue from 1q: Gain of Chromosome 1q in Cancer
Cytogenetic abnormalities including the gain and loss of chromosomes play an important role in oncogenesis. Aberrations involving chromosome 1 are one of the most common anomalies reported among human neoplasms and have been observed in both solid tumors and hematological malignancies. This review highlights the prognostic import of cytogenetic abnormalities involving 1q in childhood cancers an...
متن کاملhGBP-1 Expression Predicts Shorter Progression-Free Survival in Ovarian Cancers, While Contributing to Paclitaxel Resistance
Ovarian cancer is the gynecological cancer with the poorest prognosis. One significant reason is the development of resistance to the chemotherapeutic drugs used in its treatment. The large GTPase, hGBP-1, has been implicated in paclitaxel resistance in ovarian cell lines. Forced expression of hGBP-1 in SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells protects them from paclitaxel-induced cell death. However, prior ...
متن کاملCDKN2B methylation correlates with survival in AML patients
Aberrant DNA methylation has been reported as an important phenotype in acute myeloid leukemia. However the clinical significance of methylation changes has not been clear yet. In this study methylation Specific Melting Curve Analysis (MS-MCA) and real time PCR was used to assess the CDKN2B promoter hyper-methylation and gene expression in 59 Iranian acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. The i...
