Gene expression profiling of laterally spreading tumors
BACKGROUND Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are generally defined as lesions >10 mm in diameter, are characterized by lateral expansion along the luminal wall with a low vertical axis. In contrast to other forms of tumor, LSTs are generally considered to have a superficial growth pattern and the potential for malignancy. We focused on this morphological character of LSTs, and analyzed the gene...
متن کاملMany Options to Manage Laterally Spreading Tumors
(LSTs) are found frequently in the colon but not in other sections of the gastrointestinal tract. These tumors are usually less invasive than protruding or depressed tumors of the same size; thus, we have much freedom in selecting treatment modalities for LSTs. However, a pitfall lurks in the technical difficulties. It is preferable to resect every single tumor in one piece if possible, since e...
متن کاملGSK3β and CREB3 Gene Expression Profiling in Benign and Malignant Salivary Gland Tumors
Background: Salivary gland tumors (SGT) are rare lesions with uncertain histopathology. One of the major signaling pathways that participate in the development of several tumors is protein kinase A. In this pathway, glycogen synthase kinase β (GSK3β) and cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB3) are two genes which are supposed to be down regulated in most human tumors. The expression lev...
متن کاملGene Expression Profiling of Solitary Fibrous Tumors
BACKGROUND Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are rare spindle-cell tumors. Their cell-of-origin and molecular basis are poorly known. They raise several clinical problems. Differential diagnosis may be difficult, prognosis is poorly apprehended by histoclinical features, and no effective therapy exists for advanced stages. METHODS We profiled 16 SFT samples using whole-genome DNA microarrays and...
متن کاملGene expression profiling of childhood adrenocortical tumors.
Pediatric adrenocortical tumors (ACT) are rare and often fatal malignancies; little is known regarding their etiology and biology. To provide additional insight into the nature of ACT, we determined the gene expression profiles of 24 pediatric tumors (five adenomas, 18 carcinomas, and one undetermined) and seven normal adrenal glands. Distinct patterns of gene expression, validated by quantitat...
