Unstable molecules form stable tissues.
C are major structural proteins in the extracellular matrix, making up about one-third of protein mass in higher animals. In addition to their sheer bulk, this protein family is of interest because of their diversity of structural and morphogenetic roles and the attribution of an increasing number of hereditary diseases to mutations in collagens (1–4). All collagens have a distinctive molecular...
متن کاملDetection and screening of oral cancer and pre-cancerous lesions.
Oral cancer is a fatal disease, accounting for the fourth highest incidence of malignancy in males and the seventh in females in Taiwan. The relatively high prevalence of oral cancer in Taiwan is mainly because there is a high-risk group of 2.5 million people with the habit of smoking and betel nut chewing. Unfortunately, 50% of new cases in our medical center who present with TNM stage III or ...
متن کاملOral Cancer and Potentially Cancerous Lesions – Early Detection and Diagnosis
Cancer of the oral cavity, also known as “oral cavity cancer” or more simply “oral cancer”, affects the tongue, gingiva, floor of mouth, palate, tonsils and oropharynx.1, 2 However, the most common form of oral cancer, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), can affect any tissue lined with oral mucosal epithelium.2, 3 Oral cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world, ranking eighth...
متن کاملCancer stem cells: the lessons from pre-cancerous stem cells
How a cancer is initiated and established remains elusive despite all the advances in decades of cancer research. Recently the cancer stem cell (CSC) hypothesis has been revived, challenging the long-standing model of "clonal evolution" for cancer development and implicating the dawning of a potential cure for cancer [1]. The recent identification of precancerous stem cells (pCSCs) in cancer, a...
متن کاملExpression Analysis of mir-21 and mir-221 in Cancerous Tissues from Iranian Patients with Gastric Cancer
Background: Early detection is a key to survival for gastric cancer. Molecular markers such as miRNA (microRNA) can have great importance in the early diagnosis of gastric cancer. Expression of miR-21 and miR-221 are deregulated in many types of human cancers. This study aimed to investigate the differences in miRNA expression patterns within the Iranian population. Methods: Total RNA was extra...
