NKX2–1 expression as a prognostic marker in early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer
BACKGROUND NKX2-1, a key molecule in lung development, is highly expressed in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), particularly in lung adenocarcinoma (ADK), where it is a diagnostic marker. Studies of the prognostic role of NKX2-1 in NSCLC have reported contradictory findings. Two microRNAs (miRNAs) have been associated with NKX2-1: miR-365, which targets NKX2-1; and miR-33a, which is downstrea...
متن کاملTumor angiogenesis as an important prognostic factor in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (Stage IIIA)
The aim of the present study was to evaluate angiogenesis by determining the micro vascular density (MVD) and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumor samples, and to analyze their associations with clinical parameters and survival. Tumor tissue specimens of fifty patients (41 males and 9 females), who underwent radical s...
متن کاملSerum IL-33 as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in non- small cell lung cancer.
BACKGROUND Interleukin-33 (IL-33) has recently been implicated in tumor immunity. The aim of this study was to explore the clinical role of serum IL-33 in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS Sera collected from 250 healthy volunteers (HV), 256 patients with benign lung diseases (BLD) and 262 NSCLC cases were subjected to IL-33 ELISA and relationships between serum IL-33 ...
متن کاملmiR-34a as a prognostic marker of relapse in surgically resected non-small-cell lung cancer.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified as promising prognostic markers in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) since they play an important role in oncogenesis. The miR-34 family is composed of three miRNAs (miR-34a, miR-34b and miR-34c) that are part of the p53 network and whose expression is directly induced by p53 in response to DNA damage or oncogenic stress. We have analyzed the impact of m...
متن کاملCirculating deoxyribonucleic Acid as prognostic marker in non-small-cell lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
PURPOSE Circulating cell-free DNA is present in increased amounts in the blood of cancer patients, but the clinical relevance of this phenomenon remains unclear. We conducted a clinical study to assess the value of circulating DNA as a prognostic marker in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). PATIENTS AND METHODS A standard protocol for the quantification of circulating DNA by re...
