DNA copy number changes in malignant ovarian germ cell tumors.
Malignant ovarian germ cell tumors (OGCTs) include immature teratomas (ITs), dysgerminomas (DGs), endodermal sinus tumors (ESTs), choriocarcinomas, and embryonal carcinomas. Knowledge about the genetic changes associated with malignant OGCT development is sparse. We therefore analyzed 25 OGCTs (12 DGs, 4 ESTs, and 9 ITs) for gains and losses by comparative genomic hybridization. In total, more ...
متن کاملMicroRNA dysregulation as a prognostic biomarker in colorectal cancer
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most potentially curable cancers, yet it remains the fourth most common overall cause of cancer death worldwide. The identification of robust molecular prognostic biomarkers can refine the conventional tumor-node-metastasis staging system, avoid understaging of tumor, and help pinpoint patients with early-stage CRC who may benefit from aggressive treatments...
متن کاملPediatric malignant germ cell tumors show characteristic transcriptome profiles.
Malignant germ cell tumors (GCT) of childhood are rare and heterogeneous neoplasms thought to arise from primordial germ cells. They vary substantially in their natural history and show important clinical differences from their adult counterparts. To address the biological basis for these observations, we have undertaken a comprehensive analysis of global gene expression patterns in pediatric m...

متن کاملClinical characteristics of malignant ovarian germ cell tumors
This study was aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis effect of malignant ovarian germ cell tumors (MOGCTs). A total of 39 patients with MOGCTs treated at Gynecology Obstetrics in Tianjin Central Hospital were enrolled from January 1999 to November 2009 in this study. All the patients underwent pathological examination and diagnosis was confirmed. We used uni...
