Gene amplification is a poor prognostic factor in anaplastic oligodendrogliomas.
Various gene amplifications have been observed in gliomas. Prognostic-genomic correlations testing simultaneously all these amplified genes have never been conducted in anaplastic oligodendrogliomas. A set of 38 genes that have been reported to be amplified in gliomas and investigated as the main targets of amplicons were studied in a series of 52 anaplastic oligodendrogliomas using bacterial a...
متن کاملHigh amplification of FGFR1 gene is a delayed poor prognostic factor in early stage ESCC patients
Amplification of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 (FGFR1) is believed to predict response to FGFR inhibitors. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency and the prognostic impact of FGFR1 amplification in patients with resected esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) by using fluorescent in situ hybridization. Microarrayed paraffin embedded blocks were constructed, and the ...
متن کاملAnaplastic Astrocytomas and Oligodendrogliomas
The recommendations contained in this guideline are a consensus of the Alberta Provincial CNS Tumour Team synthesis of currently accepted approaches to management, derived from a review of relevant scientific literature. Clinicians applying these guidelines should, in consultation with the patient, use independent medical judgment in the context of individual clinical circumstances to direct care.
متن کاملExpression of B-myb in neuroblastoma tumors is a poor prognostic factor independent from MYCN amplification.
The transcription factors of the Myb family are expressed in several tissues and play an important role in cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival In this study, the expression of A-myb, B-myb, and c-myb was investigated in a group of 64 neuroblastomas at different dinical stages by a sensitive reverse transcription-PCR tchnique and correlated with patients' survival. All of the myb g...
متن کاملHigh level of CDK4 amplification is a poor prognostic factor in well-differentiated and dedifferentiated liposarcoma.
The amplification of MDM2 and CDK4 is the main molecular feature of well-differentiated liposarcomas (WDLS) and dedifferentiated liposarcomas (DDLS). Although the diagnostic usefulness of this molecular characteristic in liposarcomas has been investigated, its prognostic utility of quantitative gene level has not been explored. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic significance of ...
